Final thoughts

So that’s it, a quick review of a product that actually launched six months ago in China and now serves to enhance AMD’s global Radeon product offering in this RDNA 3 generation. It has a lot to offer for the very modest increase of 50 $ over the Radeon RX 7800 XT (list price), but it doesn’t break any new ground – especially for Radeon RX 6950 XT owners.

This Radeon RX 7900 GRE launch is more about availability and pricing than anything else and it makes sense to bring the Golden Rabbit Edition now that it looks like the RX 6950 XT is finally going away. Indeed, the 6950 XT was available until very recently at the same price of $549 USD as this 7900 GRE, but a look at Newegg as I write this shows these cards as “out of stock” now.

On the pricing front, the Sapphire lineup looks like this at launch:

• PULSE RX 7900 GRE: $549
• PURE RX 7900 GRE: $569 (as reviewed)
• NITRO+ RX 7900 GRE: $599
