My 1080ti died after almost 9 years, and I'm looking to upgrade both my graphics card and motherboard while staying within a $1,000 budget. I'm not very experienced with building PCs, so I appreciate any advice. My current setup includes a case that can be seen [here](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ms6BD3/nzxt-case-cas340wb1), a motherboard that can be viewed [here](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/c2DzK8/msi-b350-pc-mate-atx-am4-motherboard-b350-pc-mate), and I also have a 256GB SSD for Windows, a 2TB HDD, and a 2TB SSD for games. I'm currently using 32GB of RAM and my CPU is the one linked [here](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08166SLDF?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share). My PSU is located [here](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/9q4NnQ/evga-power-supply-220g20650y1). Thanks in advance for your help!

The 9060 XT 16GB is a great graphics card for around $450. If you're looking for something a bit higher-end, the 9070 XT is an awesome choice at approximately $700. If your main goal is to just swap out the motherboard, this is a solid route to consider. You could even upgrade to a CPU like the 5800XT and still have about $100 left for a new motherboard!
Thanks for the info! What motherboard would you recommend that would be compatible with the 9060 XT? Also, I recently upgraded my CPU, so I might hold off on upgrading that for now.
