I'm on the hunt for a graphics card roughly priced at $700 that can handle gaming well. Any recommendations?

In the U.S. market, options are limited. You might find a used 7900 XTX, or a new RTX 5070, but they'd likely be over your budget. I spotted a 9070 XT for $725 at Micro Center recently, which is just a bit over your target but worth keeping an eye on.
The 9070 XT can sometimes be found for around $699 plus shipping if you're lucky. It's a solid choice for gaming.
For that price range, it really is one of the top options.
You could also look for a 5070 Ti, as some listings come in around $600, though it's not always readily available. Be prepared for some variability in pricing as these cards are hot sellers!
Prices fluctuate a lot! If you check regularly, you might score a decent GPU within your budget. Just be cautious of buying used cards—they can be risky at this price.
Choosing between new and used is crucial here. The new 9070 XT or 5070 Ti are good bets, but if you're considering used, you might check out the 4080 Super, although I'd recommend going for new if you can. A 4090 would be a sweet find but very unlikely at this price.
Right? The 4080 Super or 4090 at that price would be insanely lucky.
Finding a 4090 for $700 is like finding a unicorn!
It’s still a good deal if you can snag it!
