Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my GPU without spending more than €500. Here's my current setup: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 at 3.59GHz, ASUS PRIME B450M-A, a GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER with 6GB, and 24GB of RAM (though one 8GB stick is broken). My GPU is getting bottlenecked in most games I'm playing these days, so I could really use your advice. Thanks!

The 9060XT sounds great, but I’d also suggest setting aside some cash for a 5700X3D. It might be worth it in the long run.
I’d recommend going for the Radeon 9060XT. It’s a solid choice, and you can save the rest of your budget for an AM5 CPU and motherboard later on.
Yeah, that's definitely the way to go!
I’m not super knowledgeable, so would I be able to really utilize the 9060XT right away, or should I wait until I can upgrade my CPU and motherboard? I’d like to stick to my budget for now. Thanks!
Honestly, it’d be smarter to save for the AM5 platform with a more recent CPU and DDR5 RAM instead of spending around €200 on the 5700X3D. You’ll want to upgrade to AM5 eventually anyway.
