Sapphire Pulse RX 7900 XT now below $800
Newegg has a promotion on another RX 7900 XT brining the price $100 down.
As reported by TechPowerUP, Sapphire and Newegg have discounted the Pulse GPU based on AMD Navi 31 GPU, right after had been tested by the tech media. Whether that’s a coincidence, that is hard to say, but this means that another custom RX 7900 XT is now available with a $100 price cut.
ASRock’s Phantom Gaming was the first card to reach this pricing level, and it remains at this price for more than 20 days now. Given how long it has been in place, it looks like that price change may be permanent. Unfortunately, other promotions that we have mentioned before are not (such as PowerColor Hellhound at $804). There is a reason to believe that Sapphire’s Pulse price cut will not stay with us for long either.
The new discount is applied through a ‘$20 off’ promotion code, and it is clearly labeled as a limited offer. Chances are this offer will be disabled later, but as of today, both Sapphire and ASRock RX 7900 XT GPUs have reached the same price level which is below $800 and also $100 cheaper than official MSRP.
