I'm looking to buy a GPU with a budget around $400. In my region, the RTX 5060 8GB, Intel Arch B580 12GB, and AMD RX 7600 16GB are all under that price. I don't need top-notch fps or resolution, so I'm wondering which one I should go for. Alternatively, should I wait for potential price drops or new budget GPU releases?

If you can avoid it, steer clear of the 8GB options or the RX 7600. In your budget, the 5060 Ti 16GB or the 9060 XT 16GB are solid picks. Just keep in mind that both of those might be over $400 for you, but if you can swing it, they're worth considering for better performance.
First off, what specs do you currently have? Knowing that can help narrow your options.
I'm actually starting fresh with a new build, so no old specs to consider. Just trying to keep my total budget around $1000.
For 1080p gaming, either the 9060 XT 16GB or B580 12GB should serve you well. If you're looking at 1440p, you might want to consider the 9070 XT 16GB, but that may stretch your budget too.
Unfortunately, both the 5060 Ti 16GB and the 9060 XT 16GB are outside my budget. The B580 12GB is the only one I can manage right now.
