AMD has subtly introduced its RX 7400 GPU this weekend without much fanfare. The RX 7400 is the latest addition to AMD’s 7000 series, designed for gamers on a budget. It utilizes last-generation RDNA3 architecture and features 8GB of GDDR6 RAM, making it an appealing option for those looking for a discrete GPU solution.

While the official price for the RX 7400 remains undisclosed, expectations place it between $150 and $250, effectively replacing the RX 6400 which previously retailed for under $200. The RX 7600, on the other hand, is available for about $260 to $360, depending on the RAM variant.

AMD promotes the RX 7400 as suitable for ‘advanced gaming and streaming experiences at 1080p.’ However, many gamers may question this claim due to its limited RAM, with 16GB now seen as the ideal standard in today’s market.

With its launch, the RX 7400 is positioned as a reliable option for individuals who require better performance than integrated graphics but do not have the budget for higher-end cards. It is a realistic choice for those who find themselves requiring a discrete card without the budget to stretch beyond $300.
