I'm building my first PC and I'm almost done, but the low-profile GPU I used in my old computer isn't performing well enough. I have a budget of about $300. If you need more information, just let me know!

I've been using an RTX 3060 for 1080p gaming, and it performs pretty well! I picked mine up for about $270 a year ago, but prices may vary now.
For your budget, I'd recommend checking out the RX 7600 or the RTX 4060. The 4060 is a bit faster and gives you better ray tracing and upscaling, but the RX 7600 is usually cheaper. Just make sure you have a decent power supply with a 6+2 pin cable. If you're running something around 250W, you might need an upgrade, but you should be good with most solid models.
Absolutely go for a used RX 7600 or an RX 7600XT. Those cards typically fit right into your budget and should work great for your setup.
Consider hunting for a used RTX 3070 on eBay; it's a good card but might not be as powerful as the newer options. If you want something fresh, the Intel Arc B580 could work, but I'd only suggest it if you're pairing it with a solid CPU like a Ryzen 5 5600 or a Core i5 11600.
