Hey everyone! I'm looking at the ASUS Prime 9060XT 16GB OC Edition GPU. I know there are various brands out there, but I'm curious if this one is a solid choice or if I should consider getting a Gigabyte instead. There's someone selling a brand new, sealed one for $549, and that seems like a decent deal to me. What do you all think? Should I go for it?

$549 is a bit steep unless that’s in AUD. The MSRP in the US is around $350, so if you’re paying in USD, you might want to think twice. Also, in Canada, you can find better options available from actual stores. I’d do some more research before making a decision.
If you're paying $550 in the US for that GPU, it’s actually a terrible deal. You could snag a new-in-box 5070 for that price! Typically, a 9060XT shouldn’t go above $400, ideally. I'd recommend looking for other options.
Just to add some perspective, I initially mistook the 9060XT for the 9070XT, which can be a better buy. Keep that in mind while you shop around!
Thanks for the info! Just to clarify, it is in USD.
