I'm trying to decide between the MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Ventus 2X and the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 with 8GB of VRAM. I'm not very knowledgeable about GPUs, and I thought that having more VRAM was better, but the 5060 seems to perform better in benchmarks. Can anyone help me figure out which one I should go for?

Definitely go for the RTX 5060! It's significantly faster than the 3060, and the extra VRAM in the 3060 doesn't really compensate for the performance difference. If you're looking for something even better, the 9060XT 16GB is a great option since it outperforms both and has more VRAM to boot.
I appreciate the advice! Quick question though: how should I choose a case for my build, and does it really matter?
