I'm looking for a budget-friendly GPU that will work well with my AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-core processor. I don't play high-end games, just casual ones like Valorant. My previous GPU broke, so my system has been idle for a while. I'm hoping to spend around $200. For reference, my PSU is a MAG A660BN with 650 watts, and I'm using a Gigabyte B450m DS3H v3 motherboard. Any suggestions would really help!

If you want to save some cash, consider used GPUs from past generations, like the GTX 1660 or RX 580. They usually fall in your budget range and should pair decently with your Ryzen 5 3600. Also, think about future-proofing; you might get limited by the CPU if you go for higher-end cards.
Since you're not into high-end games, I'd suggest targeting something within the range you mentioned. The Arc B580 is a solid choice for 1080 gaming and you can find it around $250. Just keep in mind your PSU's capacity when making a decision. If you can stretch your budget a little, you might be able to find it used for a better deal!
Almost any GPU from the last couple of decades will be compatible with your setup. The main things to think about are your budget and the power supply. For your price range, I’d recommend looking at cards that are around $200, like the Arc B580, which should handle 1080p gaming pretty well.
