Hey everyone! I've been using a GTX 1050 Ti for the last four years, and I'm ready to upgrade my not-so-great PC. Could you suggest a good GPU that I can get for around $200 or โ‚ฌ200? I appreciate any recommendations! Thanks in advance! :)

If you're looking for new options, the 3060 Ti is also a great pick. Just make sure to check out the benchmarks for the games you want to play before buying.

I've heard good things about the Intel Arc B570. It's priced around $200 to $230 and has 10GB of VRAM, which is pretty decent for that budget. Might be worth checking out!

GraphicsNerd99: Yeah, I'd pick the Arc B570 over a 5050 any day! It's a great budget option.

If you're open to buying second-hand, you might be able to grab an RX 6700 XT; I just upgraded from a 1050 Ti to one of those. It's been great, and you can usually find decent deals on it.

OldSchoolCool: Haha, that's awesome! How's the performance compared to the 1050 Ti?

When I was in your position, I searched various stores within my budget and filtered results to only show GPUs with 8GB of VRAM. Itโ€™s crucial to know what you need and see whatโ€™s available. Good luck with your search, I'm sure you'll find something great!

Consider looking for a used RTX 3070. You can usually find them for around โ‚ฌ210-230 here. With a bit of haggling, you might score one for $200. It's a solid upgrade if you can find one!
