AMD’s Radeon RX 6700 XT and Radeon RX 6600 are even further behind the top-of-the-line RTX 4090 GPU, though the NVIDIA graphics card is currently $1,599.99 and both AMD models are $479 and $329, respectively.

Amazon reveals that the best-selling graphics card is the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060. The RTX 4080 and 4090 cards are far behind in sales. For example, NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4090 is in fifteenth place, while the RTX 4080 is around twenty-eighth. What could cause such a dramatic difference in sales? A few factors come into play when comparing Newegg vs Amazon. Amazon is a global seller of more than just PC hardware and components. The online retail giant also sells books, clothes, movies, and more, while Newegg is more central to what you might find through them.
Additionally, there has always been a history of review moderation online, as Amazon seems to be in the spotlight for third-party sellers who “upgrade” their products to a five-star rating. And since retailers don’t display sales in numbers of units sold, Newegg or Amazon has outperformed the other in specific GPUs, making it difficult to say which graphics card is truly the best-selling.
AMD has released the Radeon RX 7900 XT and XTX variants ($899 and $999), and on Newegg the cards are at the bottom of the list, even with the great prices. This could change dramatically over the next month as the tech giant is reported to be shipping 200,000 units to supply in the fourth quarter of 2022. We may have to wait to see the best-selling card of 2022 after the end of the year to see if AMD’s numbers change.
