I'm planning to upgrade my graphics card. Here are my current specs: I have an Asrock B450 Steel Legend motherboard, a Ryzen 5 2600 CPU, 16 GB of RAM, and I'm currently using a Radeon HD 7700. What graphics card would be a good fit if I want to keep my CPU?

It really depends on your budget! If you’re looking for something affordable, a used GTX 1080 Ti might be a solid choice—I've seen them around for about £150 on eBay. Just make sure your power supply can handle it!
Don't forget about the Intel Arc b580. At MSRP, it can give you the best bang for your buck when it comes to gaming! However, actually getting one at a good price might be tricky.
Another option is a GTX 1070 or even a used 2060. They’re often priced attractively in the used market. Just watch out for what you can get for your power supply too!
If you're not restricted by budget, you could technically grab a 5090, but just keep in mind you may not get the full performance out of it with your current CPU. Still, it could be fun!
Right, but if you're planning future upgrades, investing in a high-end card makes sense.
For the best performance without breaking the bank, consider getting a 6700 XT or a 3060 Ti. They handle gaming well and give you the added benefit of DLSS. Just check your budget!
Yeah, I've found some used cards are pretty good deals, like the GTX 1060 or 1050 Ti if you want to keep costs lower.
