You might want to consider switching to a 9060 XT if your budget allows for it. It would be a solid upgrade for gaming. Check out this AM5 build I’ve suggested! It's just a bit more at $1562.35, but you could potentially get a lot better performance with it!
Thanks for the suggestion! That's a bit over what I was hoping to spend, though.
