What replacement GPU should I consider after mine failed?
Asked by

Hey everyone, my GPU gave out after just 8 months, and I've sent it back for a replacement. I'm trying to figure out what graphics card I should look at next. Here are my current PC specs:
- **CPU:** AMD Ryzen 5 5600 3.5 GHz 6-Core Processor
- **Motherboard:** MSI B550M PRO-VDH Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
- **Memory:** Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18
- **Storage:** Western Digital Blue SN580 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME SSD
- **Video Card:** Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon RX 7600 8 GB GDDR6
- **Power Supply:** MSI MAG A650BN 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
I don't play super demanding games, just titles like Hell Let Loose, War Thunder, Ready or Not, and RDR2. A friend suggested the Radeon RX 7600 XT 16 GB as a good upgrade, but I wanted to hear what you all think!

I’d recommend considering the 9060XT 16GB. It's got better performance compared to the 7600XT and you might even find it at a cheaper price.

I've been seeing the 9060XT for a good price too. Make sure to check around because some places have it cheaper than the 7600XT, which might surprise you. It's a solid choice overall!

CuriousGamer42: I've checked a few places, but they all seem to have the 9060 at least £30 more than the 7600. Maybe I need to look harder?
