I'm currently building a gaming PC using parts I've scavenged, and I'm looking for advice on the best GPU to pair with my setup. Right now, I have a 1660 Super, but I'm planning to upgrade to an 8700 XT for better performance. I'll also be adding another 8GB stick to bring it up to 32GB RAM soon. Here's my build outline:

I'm concerned about potential bottlenecks with this setup. Is the 8700 XT the best option, or should I consider a different GPU? Additionally, I'm thinking ahead to the release of GTA 6; will I need to upgrade more components besides the GPU? I'm also considering a GPU with at least 16GB of VRAM.

It really depends on your budget, but if you're looking to spend under 1200 CAD, you've got some solid choices. For a good balance of price and performance, you might want to look into models like the 9060 XT with 16GB of VRAM.
Are you saying the 9060 XT is better than the 7800 XT? I haven't kept up with AMD's newer releases.
