This latest gen 1080p AMD card has "only 8GB" VRAM but it's still a great deal

Earlier today, we covered an AMD RX 6500 XT deal which is an excellent buy at the moment despite its shortcomings. The card is available for just $111 making it a solid choice for entry level gaming. Check it out in this dedicated article here.

If however your budget is around $250 and want something that is much better, then there is also another AMD Radeon GPU on the block that wants your attention, enter the Gigabyte RX 9060 XT Gaming card that is currently available for just $250 thanks to a $50 promo gift card (purchase link under the specs table down below). The SEP of the 9060 XT 8GB is $299 so this makes it a great deal indeed.

The 9060 XT is very close to the Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti in rasterization performance and trades blows with the 4060 Ti in ray tracing. The only real drawback of the Gigabyte Gaming model we are talking about of here is its 8GB VRAM. However, given the price of just $250, the performance on offer is tremendous.

If you are planning to play games with high ray tracing settings and with lots of high-res textures, this is not the best bet; however, for most 1080p gamers the 9060 XT 8GB card is an excellent purchase.
