I'm looking to build a PC with a Ryzen 5 5600X and 32GB of 3600 MHz RAM. My main goal is to run games smoothly at 1440p and 1080p resolutions. Right now, the RTX 4060 and 5060 are priced almost the same at around 1400 PLN (about 370 USD). Should I go for the RTX 4060 or the RTX 5060?

If you can, definitely go for the 16GB version of either card instead of the 8GB. The RTX 5060 is generally the better choice, especially since 8GB is starting to feel a bit outdated for new games. If you're planning on playing AAA titles and want some future-proofing, aim for the 16GB version of the 5060. Unless you’re only playing older games at lower settings, the 8GB versions might not cut it.
Both cards I’m considering are the 8GB versions. I usually play games like Valorant, Forza Horizon 5, and a few more casual titles. Medium settings should work fine for me, and the 16GB versions are stretching my budget a bit, so I’m hesitant.
