I'm looking to game on an ultrawide monitor with high to ultra settings, but I want to keep the costs reasonable. Can anyone suggest the best GPU options that won't break the bank? My monitor's resolution is 3440 x 1440, and I'd like to aim for 75-100 FPS while playing games like Elden Ring (with the ultrawide mod), Black Myth: Wukong, Baldur's Gate 3, and Lords of the Fallen. I'm hoping to keep my budget under $600.

It’s tough to recommend a card without knowing your specific budget. But since you're aiming for ultrawide at that resolution, you may want to consider the RX 6800 XT or the newer 7900 GRE. Both offer great performance for the price, especially for the games you mentioned.
If you want to make the most of your budget, checking out used cards could be a good route. You might find a used RTX 3090 on eBay for around $650-$800. Just make sure to verify the seller and the condition of the card before buying!
Are you really sure about recommending a 3090? I thought the prices have been all over the place lately. Is it still a good deal?
