Hey everyone! I'm in a bit of a tight spot and need your help. I'm trying to upgrade my GPU from an AMD RX 590, and I have a strict budget of around €450. I'm hoping to find something that will hold up for the next 5 years without needing additional upgrades for my current setup. My current rig includes an AX370-GAMING K7 motherboard, a Ryzen 7 2700X CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 500GB SSD, and a Seasonic S12II Bronze 430W power supply. I'm using a 1440p monitor, and I'm fine with sticking to 60fps gaming for now. I've been considering the AMD RX 9060 XT, but I'm worried about whether my power supply can handle it. Any suggestions for a good GPU that offers good value for money without breaking the bank?

I'd suggest going for the RX 9060 XT 16GB. You can grab it for around €400, and if you undervolt it and lower the power limit, you'll save on power while losing only a bit of performance. It’s a solid choice.
I guess with my CPU likely bottlenecking it, maybe I shouldn’t worry too much about performance loss. The 16GB versions are closer to €500, though, while the 8GB is available for around €300. That's a tough choice!
