I'm considering purchasing an RX 7060 with 8 GB of VRAM, and I want to know if it will be sufficient for gaming at 1080p for the next 3-4 years. I don't typically play the latest AAA titles, focusing instead on games from the last five years.

It really depends on what you're playing. If you have the budget for a 12 GB or 16 GB card, that's definitely preferable for longevity. But if you're limited on funds, the RX 7060 will still be a solid upgrade from your current RTX 3050 with 4 GB VRAM.
Honestly, if you can wait a bit for a better card with more VRAM, that would be ideal. But I get it, the RTX 3050 is struggling hard right now! You might just have to go for it if it's all you can afford.
Yeah, I'm really over my current setup and can't hold out much longer!
For 1080p gaming, it should hold up okay for a few years, but don't expect to max out the latest AAA games without some compromises. It might be a stretch with demanding titles as they come out.
If you're looking at the RX 7060, I can confirm it's a good choice. It should handle most games quite well, especially those older ones you're interested in.

Yeah, the RX 7060 is a big step up from my old card, so I'm leaning towards it.
