I'm currently running an Intel Core i7-10700KF with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER and 16GB of memory. As my GTX 1660 is getting outdated, I'm on the lookout for a new graphics card to enhance my gaming experience, especially for lower-demand games like Rainbow Six at high FPS. I'm considering a budget of €200–€300 but I'm open to spending a bit more if it means getting a significant upgrade. Any suggestions?

If you're aiming for solid performance, I'd suggest looking at the RTX 3060 Ti. It's a great option due to its compatibility and price point. You might even find a used RTX 3070 or 3070 Ti around £200 on eBay, which is a steal! Check other marketplaces, too; a 3080 might just pop up under €300 as well. Just steer clear of the 4060 series; they're not worthwhile compared to last-gen options. Also, when upgrading, make sure to use DDU to wipe old drivers for a smoother transition!
For around €300, you can grab a second-hand 3060 Ti, which will double your FPS for most games. It’s a solid choice, balancing price and performance!
That sounds promising! I've also heard about the new 5060, any thoughts?

Good call! But how long do you think the new cards will last before needing another upgrade?
