Upgrading your graphics card is pretty easy in 2024, as you simply need one thing, some money. But even easier is that there’s no shortage of really great performance hardware too, with even modern entry-level models providing exciting performance in the latest and most popular games, and further options still if you want to game at high frame rates, high resolutions, or both. Of course, everyone has their limits, and paying £1000+ for the most extreme cards is likely unappealing on many levels for a lot of gamers and their wallets. However, that’s where the RX 7700 XT comes into play, costing under £400 it delivers some pretty incredible features and performance for enthusiast-level gaming, and now it also offers some rather unique aesthetics, with the release of the Sapphire PURE AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT 12GB Frostpunk 2 Edition graphics card.
While it’s not worth retreading old ground with this one, as the RX 7700 XT is well reviewed by ourselves and many others. We know it’s a fantastic chipset that offers some very competitive value for money for PC gaming, it has done so since it launched in 2023, and that much has not changed as we approach 2025.
We reviewed the Sapphire RX 7700 XT Pure 12GB Graphics Card last year, and it was pretty fantastic. Delivering high frame rates while using ultra settings at 1440p in many AAA games, meaning it has more than enough performance grunt to satisfy the needs of any gamer.
So while the performance hasn’t really changed, short of a few driver updates and optimizations in that time, Sapphire has decided to do something more unique to appeal to the gaming market. With their new Frostpunk 2 edition, you’ll be able to showcase your graphics card with a more unique design than this card’s standard editions.
