Hey everyone! I picked up my PC from someone else who built it. I've done a little bit of tinkering, like swapping the SSD, but I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card from an EVGA GTX 750 to a 9060XT 16GB since I've saved up quite a bit. My current setup includes a Ryzen 3400G CPU, and I'm a bit concerned about bottlenecking. I'd love some advice on how much of a performance hit I might face and if there's a better option for a graphics card within my budget. I can't afford to upgrade my CPU right now, but my power supply should be able to handle the 9060XT just fine. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Honestly, your Ryzen 3400G might struggle a bit with the RX 9060XT 16GB. If you can swing it, consider upgrading to an AMD Ryzen 5 5500, which is pretty affordable these days, around $82. That could help you avoid a bottleneck and get the most out of your new graphics card!
Wait, CPUs can be that cheap? I might be able to manage that after the GPU. Thanks for the tip!
