You may already know that graphics card prices have been inflated all year due to memory shortage-related hikes, though there are some decent GPU deals during Prime Day this week. Either way, you now have the chance to win an AMD Radeon graphics card for free, thanks to a new official sweepstake. It’s open to the US, UK, Ireland, and Canada (excluding Quebec).

Head on over to AMD Gaming’s sweepstakes page to enter this giveaway – entrants close on July 5. It’s similar to previous hardware giveaways we’ve seen, where you have a higher chance of winning with the more actions you complete. These include following AMD’s various social media accounts and signing up on the AMD Gaming website.

Jack Huynh is the face of the AMD Radeon GPU drop

Senior Vice President and General Manager of Computing and Graphics at AMD, Jack Huynh, is the face of ‘Jack’s AMD Radeon GPU Drop’ – the drop features six graphics cards in total. Although this giveaway is designed to celebrate FSR 4.1 Upscaling support for the last-gen RX 7000 series, the majority of cards actually belong to the latest RX 9000 series.

The current flagship RX 9070 XT and former flagship RX 7900 XTX are up for grabs – both of which are incredibly capable graphics cards for 1440p and 4K gaming. With FSR 4.1 Upscaling now available on the XTX, the card is essentially getting a second wind, thanks to the addition of ML-based upscaling for greater detail and improved visual fidelity with upscaling.

While the RX 9070 XT remains the current flagship on AMD’s latest RDNA 4 architecture, the XTX does actually boast a higher amount of VRAM (24GB versus the 9070 XT’s 16GB) and more Stream Processors. It’s slightly better for pure rasterization, but the RDNA 4 architecture in the RX 9000 series remains a big selling point, particularly thanks to its improved ray tracing.

Also up for grabs is the RX 9060 XT, AMD’s current mid-range option. It’s important to point out that there are 8GB and 16GB models of this card, and AMD doesn’t explicitly mention which one is being given away. However, the terms and conditions of the sweepstakes say the average value of them is $459.99 USD, which to us suggests these are 16GB variants.
