I'm looking for recommendations for a video card to pair with my setup, which includes an AMD Ryzen 5 8600G processor, a Samsung 990 Pro SSD, an XPG Core Reactor II Modular PSU, an ASUS Prime B650-PLUS WiFi motherboard, and 32GB of CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 RAM. I'm primarily interested in using it for gaming, specifically MMOs, MOBAs, and other genres. I don't have a graphics card yet, and my budget is around $400 to $500. Any suggestions?

You're in a good spot with the 8600G, so there are plenty of options. But make sure to check the compatibility with your PSU and monitor. What are your gaming priorities?
Your Ryzen 5 8600G should be able to handle quite a range of graphics cards. Just make sure your power supply can support the card you choose. What PSU wattage do you have?
Before diving into recommendations, could you clarify what you're mainly looking for in a graphics card? What's your budget, and do you have any specific needs like performance or aesthetics?
Based on your budget, you might want to look at the 5060 TI with 16GB. Think about what you're after: Are you looking for something good enough for now, or are you open to spending less on a card now and upgrading later? Also, consider waiting a bit if you think prices will drop.
I want to play video games like MMOs and MOBAs, and I'm willing to spend between $400 and $500. I currently don’t have a graphics card in my system.
