I'm planning to upgrade my old GTX 1660 Super and I'm searching for a new graphics card in the $300 to $350 range. I primarily game at 1080p, and I'm open to any brand. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations or advice you all have!

If you're set on getting something new, both the RX 7600 and RTX 3060 (12GB) are good picks. The 3060 can give you about a 45% performance boost, while the 7600 offers around 60%. If you stretch your budget a bit beyond $350, the RX 7600 XT could provide about a 70% improvement. Also, used RTX 3070 or 3070 Ti are great options as they can double your current performance, but keep in mind they draw more power. If you're on the hunt for something cheaper, consider a used RTX 2080 Ti for similar performance, just make sure your PSU can handle it.
You could look for a used 3080 or a new B580. The B580 got my attention too, so I recommend checking out its specs further before deciding!
B580 seems interesting, I'll dig more into its performance. Thanks!
You might want to consider the RX 6750 XT or 6700 XT as options. They're decent cards within that price range.
If you're looking for solid performance, check out a used RX 6800 or 6800 XT, or even a 3080. They can handle 1080p gaming at ultra settings quite well. The 6800 XT even supports ray tracing at 1080p!
I’ll see if I can find one online somewhere, thanks for the tip!
Power isn't a problem for me; I went overboard with my PSU when I built the PC. The 7600 XT is on my radar as it's within my budget, aside from the 3060. I hadn't thought much about used cards, but I'll definitely check locally for RX 6000 options. Thanks for all the insights!
