I'm on a budget of around 400 euros and can only shop from PCcomponents. I'm looking for a GPU that offers some future-proofing and ideally has 16GB of VRAM. I really want to avoid Intel and am considering AMD or Nvidia only. So far, I've found a renovated Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 9060 XT for 404 euros and a renovated Radeon RX 7600 XT for 334 euros. I prefer Nvidia since that's what I'm used to, but every option I see is over 450 euros, which is above my budget. Another option is to wait until next month to see if there's a better card available. I'm a casual gamer and play at really low quality settings, so I want to avoid stuttering and screen tearing. My current setup includes a Ryzen 7 5800X CPU, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and a 650W PSU.

I'd recommend going for the 9060 XT with 16GB. It's a solid choice and should handle your gaming needs well. Avoid the 7600 XT since it doesn't really stack up against the competition.
Honestly, if you can stretch your budget just a little, looking for a used higher-end card like a 4070 or 7800 XT could be worthwhile. They offer much better performance, but I get that prices are tough right now!
Yeah, I’ve seen those over 500 euros, which is way too much for me. I might just have to settle for the 9060 XT.
Yeah, I checked and the 9060 XT seems like a great fit for your budget. Definitely better than the 7600 XT.
