Hey everyone! I'm considering buying a GPU and I'm stuck between the RX 7600 and the RX 7600 XT. I want to know if there's a significant difference in performance on a Full HD (1080p) monitor at 180Hz, especially since I'm planning to use it for the next 5 years. What do you think?

I'd go for the RX 7600 XT. It's definitely worth it for the extra VRAM, especially if you plan to keep it for a while. Future games might use more video memory, and having that extra power could help immensely in the long run.
For a 5-year perspective, you should consider that some upcoming games might need around 16GB of VRAM, especially with next-gen consoles pushing boundaries. Plus, the RX 7600 XT is simply a faster card. But honestly, what's 'a little extra' you're planning to pay? Have you looked into alternatives like the 9060 XT? It's a newer option.
Just a heads-up, the RX 7600 XT started at about 95 fps at 1080p during its launch, according to reviews. As new, more demanding games come out, you might find that performance dropping. It's something to keep in mind for long-term play.
Exactly! And in just a couple of years, you could really be wishing for better performance—new games could very well need more than what the 7600 offers.
