ASUS TUF Gaming Radeon RX 7700 XT OC, TUF-RX7700XT-O12G-GAMING, 12GB GDDR6, HDMI, 3x DP

The ASUS Radeon RX 7700 XT TUF Gaming OC variant, equipped with 12GB of GDDR6 memory, is a notable entry in the mid-to-high-end graphics card segment. Even with initial launch delays, these GPUs feature advanced shader capabilities, suggesting optimized performance for WQHD monitor resolutions.

Averaged over the 25 games in our test suite, at 1440p resolution, the RX 7700 XT ends up considerably faster than the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, by roughly 20%. Due to its narrow memory bus width, the RTX 4060 Ti will fall behind more quickly than the RX 7700 XT as you increase resolution, but that also means that it will be slightly more competitive at 1080p, than at 1440p. Compared to its bigger sibling, the RX 7800 XT, the performance difference is only 15%, but you have to consider the small $50 price difference, which is just 11%. Compared to previous NVIDIA GeForce 30 cards, the RX 7700 XT ends up roughly in the middle between RTX 3080 and RTX 3070 Ti. NVIDIA used to charge $1200 for GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, now the $450 RX 7700 XT is 20% faster. If you're still on the older RX 5700 XT, AMD's flagship from a few years ago, the RX 7700 XT offers an 80% performance uplift. These performance numbers make RX 7700 XT a good card for 1440p gaming. It should be able to reach 60 FPS in virtually all titles at max settings. Lighter games will run on 4K, too, especially if you combine upscaling with lowered details.
