I'm planning to upgrade my GPU soon to ensure I can keep playing AAA games without issues. I'm not necessarily after the highest-end performance; I'm looking for the best value option that will work well with my current setup. Here's what I have:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F
- Motherboard: TUF Gaming B650-Plus WIFI
- RAM: Trident Z5 32G DDR5-6000
- Current GPU: GeForce 2060 Super 8GB
- Power Supply: EVGA Supernova 750B
Can anyone recommend some GPUs that fit this criteria?

The 9070 is often overlooked but is still a very competent card. It could save some cash while still giving you a solid gaming experience for the foreseeable future.
Make sure to also consider your power supply wattage. The EVGA Supernova 750B should be good enough. If your budget can stretch, I'd recommend the 9060XT or 9070XT for a great balance of price and performance. You could also think about just the standard 9070; it still delivers solid performance without breaking the bank.
If you're looking for value, I can personally vouch for the 9060XT (16GB) or even the 5070 and 9070XT. They’ve been amazing for 4K gaming with settings maxed out. Honestly, AMD's cards are really competitive as well.
Before making a decision, it would help to know your budget and the monitor specs. Are you gaming at 1920x1080 with a 144Hz refresh rate? If so, the 9060XT, 9070XT, and 5070Ti are solid choices right now. They offer great price-to-performance ratios, especially with 16GB of VRAM. If you're tight on budget, you might find an older model like the Intel B580 more appealing, or snag a used 3080 for a reasonable price!
Yeah, I'm using a 1920x1080 144Hz monitor but I'm open to upgrading that down the line.
