Hey everyone! I put together my PC about five years ago with the intention of playing any game I wanted without going for flashy graphics or RGB lighting. Here are my specs:
- CPU: Ryzen 5 3600x
- Motherboard: B450-A Pro Max
- GPU: 1650 Super
- RAM: Corsair 32GB DDR4
- Power Supply: 600W EVGA 600 BQ 80+ Bronze
- Case: Lian Li LANCOOL 205
I'm looking to swap out my GPU, but I'm overwhelmed with choices and I'm not entirely sure about my budget. Ideally, I want something affordable that performs well, around $300-400, but if I can get something cheaper, that would be fantastic.
I had hoped to learn more about PC parts over time, but progress has been slow! So far, I only upgraded my RAM this year, and I plan to change the power supply after getting a new GPU. Any advice on what to upgrade next, or general tips on learning about PC parts would be greatly appreciated. I think my CPU is still decent, but I want to make my rig more capable of handling games, especially since I had some performance issues with newer titles like Grounded 2 and Cyberpunk.

If you're looking for a solid upgrade from your 1650 Super, definitely check out the ASRock Challenger OC Radeon RX 9060 XT (16GB). It's reported to be 2.9 times faster than your current GPU according to TechPowerUp! This card should serve you well for most games at decent settings.
Shi, thanks for the recommendation!
