BLACK FRIDAY Graphics card DEALS 2023: FAQs

When will Black Friday graphics card deals start in 2023?

Black Friday 2023 took place on November 24, and while the actual date shifts every year, the day of the week stays the same: it's always the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Black Friday graphics card deals technically kicked off yesterday, but as we've seen in years past, Black Friday sales are in full swing two weeks ahead of the official event and will keep going strong until the end of Cyber Monday at the earliest.

Should you wait for a Black Friday graphics card deal?

Now, whether you wait until the Black Friday sales event to buy a new graphics card is a burning question on a lot of people's minds.

All we can really say to trust your gut. If you see an AMD RX 7800 XT on sale for 10% off MSRP and you can actually buy it, there's no reason not to jump on it. We're used to seeing 15% to 30% mark ups on the best graphics cards in the past couple of years, not to mention scalpers absolutely wrecking the market and driving up prices even further.

Will that aforementioned RX 7800 XT possibly go lower? Sure, it probably will, but there are also going to be a lot more people fighting over it, so there is value in locking in a good deal now and getting the peace of mind of knowing that you'll actually get the graphics card you want rather then waiting things out for another few weeks.

However, if you're looking to get one of the really higher-priced cards like the RTX 4090, then there's some value in waiting for it to drop even further during Black Friday itself. There's no guarantee that it will drop further than where it's at now, but it's also unlikely to shoot back up to MSRP right after Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so if you can't find an even better Black Friday graphics card deal, you can probably still find savings after the event ends. 

For something like this, set a price in your mind that you're willing to spend on this kind of card, and when you see one at or below that price, jump on it, whether that's today or on November 24.

What kind of specs should you look for in a new graphics card?

There are a few things to consider when buying a graphics card this Black Friday. First and foremost, you need to consider your whole gaming setup. Buying a 4K graphics card when you only have a 1080p monitor is seriously overkill, and while you can get 400 fps in many titles at 1080p with an RTX 3090 Ti, if your monitor's refresh rate is only 144Hz, you're paying for a lot of frames that you're simply not going to see.

If you're looking for 1080p gaming, the Nvidia RTX 4060 or AMD Radeon RX 7600 is as high as you'll really need to go.

If you're looking for 1440p gaming, the Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070 Ti, or the RX 7700 XT or RX 7800 XT is as high as you should go.

If you're looking for 4K gaming, then the Nvidia RTX 4080 or RX 7900 XT and above is where you need to look.

If you're looking to do creative content work like 3D rendering or analytical work like machine learning, go for the RTX cards since the tensor cores on the RTX cards are ideal for this kind of work.

If you're looking for gaming with ray tracing, the Nvidia RTX cards outperform the Radeon RX cards in this type of gaming, so are better suited.

If ray tracing isn't an issue or you're on a tigher budget, the AMD Radeon RX lineup is generally cheaper and offers competitive gaming performance, so this is where we'd tell you to look for deals.
