Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my GPU and my budget is between $100 and $150. Right now, I'm using a GTX 1660 with an Asus TUF B550 motherboard and an AMD Ryzen 5600X3D CPU. My case is the H510 Elite mid-tower. I'm not looking for anything super fancy, just something that will give me a decent boost. I prefer GeForce cards, but I'm open to other options as well. Any recommendations?

Honestly, with a budget of $100-$150, your options are pretty limited, especially when it comes to new GPUs. If you can stretch your budget to around $200, I’d suggest considering the RX 6600. If you really want to upgrade, the RX 9060s are highly praised but those would set you back closer to $300. Just a heads up, though—you might experience some bottlenecking since your 5600X3D is a strong CPU.
For $250, you could snag a B580 or a 9060XT with 8GB. Plus, if you can sell your GTX 1660, that could help you get closer to your target budget!
I think I’ll go for that! Sounds like a plan!
You might also check out a used Intel Arc B580. They perform similarly to a 4060 and are going for around $230 used. Could be a solid option!
