Hey everyone! I'm thinking about upgrading from my NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 since it's been a reliable card, but I feel like it's time for something new. My budget is around $350, but I'm open to stretching it a bit if needed. Could you recommend some good options?

You might want to look at the 9060XT with 16GB – it's a solid upgrade! If you can stretch your budget to about $400, it could really enhance your gaming experience. What else do you have in your build?
I wouldn't go for anything less than the 9060XT 16GB personally. The 3060 is still great, but when you buy a new card, you want to ensure it lasts for a while.
If you're set on upgrading, definitely consider the 9060XT with 16GB if you can push your budget a bit. For around $400, it's a great option. But if you already have a 12GB 3060, you might not see enough improvement to justify the cost.
With GPU prices being kind of high lately, I'd suggest avoiding anything with just 8GB of VRAM. The 9060XT 16GB or the 5060 Ti 16GB might be your best bets close to your price point. But if you're considering used cards, that could also be worth it!
Honestly, the 3060 is still pretty capable. If you check out fpstest.me, you can see what upgrades would actually make sense based on the games you're playing. Sometimes sticking with what you have makes more sense!
That's a good point! Upgrading really depends on what games you want to play and how much performance you're looking for.
