I'm considering upgrading my GPU and I've been told that 16 GB is the minimum to aim for these days. Right now, I'm looking at a couple of options around $300, like a GIGABYTE RX 6800 XT or a Sapphire 16 GB model. Can anyone tell me if there's a big performance difference between these two? Also, I've heard mixed opinions on whether I might need a new power supply for my current setup, which has a Ryzen 3600 and a 600W 80+ Gold PSU. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Definitely aim for 16 GB of VRAM. While the difference isn't huge right now, you're going to thank yourself later as 8 GB is already getting tight with some games. Plus, your current 600W PSU should be fine for these GPUs.
Oh, that's great to know! I'm trying to learn more about PC building, so I'll look for GPUs that fit that 16 GB rule. Thanks for the insight!
