I'm trying to decide between the RX 7700XT and RX 7900XT for my gaming setup. My local Best Buy has both in stock, and I'm currently using an RTX 3060 12GB, so I'd be upgrading either way. The prices are 7900XT for $870 and 7700XT for $530. I know these prices might not be the best, but I want to make a decision quickly. Are these prices considered too high?

Honestly, those prices are pretty rough. But if you're looking for a solid performance increase, the 7900XT is your best bet.
You might want to check Amazon for the RX 7700XT. They have it for about $450, but it’s coming from Germany and won’t arrive until May 15th. If you can wait, that's a decent savings of around $110.
The RX 7900XT is definitely the better option here. The 7700XT doesn’t offer enough of a boost compared to your RTX 3060 to justify the price. That said, the price of $870 for the 7900XT is a bit on the high side, usually around $100 less. But if you need a card now, it might be worth it for the upgrade. Think about whether that convenience is worth the extra cash.
