`AMD RX 6950 XT Drops to $659: Real Deals`

The price of graphics cards in general is still sickeningly high since the shortages of the pandemic times and the crypto mining craze, and unfortunately, the dreams of them returning to more affordable and sensible prices haven’t really materialized. Is this the new normal for GPUs? I sure hope not. But the price of the last generation of cards does continue to fall, albeit very slowly.

The last generation halo-tier card for AMD, the Radeon RX 6950 XT, is a little cheaper today thanks to Amazon reducing the price of the XFX Speedster Merc 319 AMD RX 6950 XT Black Gaming to $659 (opens in new tab). This is the cheapest RX 6950 XT variant currently available.

Looking to add some extra RAM? We found a great price for 32GB of DDR4 RAM with TeamGroup’s T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4 32GB Kit – now only $65 (opens in new tab) from Amazon. The speed of this RAM hits the sweet spot for older Ryzen systems with its 3600MHz bandwidth and CL18 latency.

You can also pick up the Corsair HS65 Surround Wired Gaming Headset for just $39 (opens in new tab) if you are in search of a solid surround-sound headset that won’t break the budget. With 7.1 virtual surround sound, comfortable cushioned ear cups, and a retractable microphone, this is a good price for a quality budget gaming headset. Have a look at our review of the Corsair HS65 for more information.
