I'm looking to upgrade my GPU and wanted some advice. Here's my current setup:
- CPU: Ryzen 5 5600
- Current GPU: RX 6600
- Motherboard: B550M Pro VDH WiFi
- PSU: EVGA 600 GQ, 600W
- Case: Thermaltake Versa H18
I'm considering the RX 9060 XT with 16GB for some 1440p gaming. Will this work well with my system?

I get why you want to upgrade, but your RX 6600 is still a pretty good card for gaming. If you're aiming for 1440p, though, the 9060 XT would be fantastic. The choice between 8GB and 16GB really boils down to the games you play. And yeah, you might want to consider a PSU upgrade just to keep everything safe!
The RX 9060 XT is definitely a solid option, especially for the price! It should handle 1440p gaming pretty well, but just keep in mind that if you want to crank up all the settings, you might need to strike a balance. If budget allows, also consider the RX 9070 or RTX 5070 as they are great alternatives. Just be aware that you might hit a CPU bottleneck with your current Ryzen, but that's fixable later on. Also, don’t forget to think about upgrading your power supply if you go for the higher-end GPUs.
