I'm looking to upgrade from my RTX 2060 (6GB) and need some advice. My setup includes an Intel i7-10700K and 32GB of DDR4 RAM on a Z590-E motherboard. I'm considering three options: a refurbished RX 7600 XT for $249, a new RX 9060 8GB for $255, and a new Arc B580 for $269. I mainly game at 1080p (or 1050p for my 16:10 monitor). The only game I've had issues with is Microsoft Flight Simulator (both 2020 and 2024). I also play various RTS games, some older FPS titles, and may want to try newer games like Baldur's Gate III. Which one should I go for?

I'd recommend going for the RX 9060 8GB. While the Arc B580 is decent, the RX 9060 really outperforms it in most scenarios, especially if you're looking for solid performance in future titles.
Have you checked out the performance benchmarks for Flight Simulator 2024? It looks like the 7600 XT actually holds up well, even being a generation older.
