Is your GPU aging, resulting in erratic frame rates and underwhelming performance? It's time to upgrade; the Radeon RX 5700 XT is one of the best graphics cards at this price. By the way, the two least expensive models are factory overclocked.
Let's start with the more interesting of the two: the Asus TUF Gaming X3 Radeon RX 5700 XT is on sale at Newegg for $379.99 from a list price of $419.99. Apply coupon code "VGAPCJP837" at checkout to save an additional $20, for a total savings of $60, or $359.99.

A triple-fan cooling solution will contain these heats.
The card also comes with a protective backplate and an overall stylish design (especially for those suffering from RGB fatigue). As an added bonus, the card qualifies for AMD's Raise the Game bundle. Monster Hunter World Iceborne Master Edition, Resident Evil 3, and three months free access to Xbox Game Pass for PC.
The only other Radeon RX 5700 XT available at this price is MSI's Evoke OC model.
This one requires a $30 mail-in rebate to get your hands on. There is also another coupon code (VGAPCMSPW26) that takes $20 off the price, and when both of these are considered, this $409.99 card drops $50 to $359.99. The only way to get the 5700 XT at this price is to take a chance on the open box model.
Like all Asus products, this one is factory overclocked. Out of the box, it has a base clock of 1,690MHz (+85MHz) and a boost clock of 1,945MHz (+40MHz), cooled by a two-fan cooling solution.
