I'm currently using a GTX 1050, but my dad is really against me buying a used GPU. I've been looking at the RX 7600, which seems like the best option. Do you think it will be cheaper during Black Friday sales?

I did some research too, and the RX 7600 is around $250 new. Consider the RTX 5060, which is just $50 more and actually offers better performance. It could be worth it in the long run.
In my experience, prices can fluctuate a bit leading up to Black Friday, then settle back to normal for the sales. Check out some price history trackers like CamelCamelCamel to see if you’re really getting a good deal when the time comes.
If you're only upgrading once in a while, think about getting something like the RX 9060 XT. The 8GB or 16GB versions are great options. The RTX 5060 could show up at a discount, but it might not be as deep as on some other models.
Usually, lower-end GPUs see some sales around Black Friday. However, with the bigger models, retailers often just mark prices up before the holiday, so you end up paying the normal price labeled as a discount. It might be a bit of a gimmick this year, so keep your eyes peeled for actual deals.
That's true! Last year, some prices were inflated right before Black Friday, making it feel like a sale when it really wasn’t.
Honestly, I wouldn't bet on major discounts for GPUs. The market can be pretty unpredictable, so it'll be interesting to see what happens this Black Friday!
Yeah, those trackers are lifesavers! They show you if what seems like a sale is actually worth it.
