I recently got a prebuilt PC with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 8GB graphics card, and I'm thinking about upgrading. My GPU usage hits 100% a lot during gaming, which is a bit concerning, and I want to be able to play games with higher graphics settings without any issues. Currently, I'm using a 1080p monitor, but I plan to upgrade to a better one soon. My CPU is an AMD Ryzen 5 8400F, and I have an 850-watt power supply. I don't have a strict budget but I want to know the best options available for a solid upgrade. Any advice on what graphics card I should go for?

Before upgrading, consider if you're really hitting performance limits. Your RTX 5060 should handle 1080p gaming quite well unless you're pushing very high settings or FPS. If you're looking for an upgrade, I'd recommend checking out the 9060XT 16GB or the 9070 series if you want something more powerful for 1440p gaming.
That's good to know! I'm mostly playing at 1080p, but I want to future-proof a bit for higher settings. Should I worry about cooling or PSU requirements with these cards?
