I'm planning to build a PC soon and I'm curious about which GPU I should get for around $300. I'm open to both new or used options. Any recommendations?

I've seen 3080s listed occasionally for $300 or even less. Just depends on where you're at. I found one locally for $260 the other day in Seattle—super competitive market here.
I'd recommend the AMD RX 6700 XT. It's a solid choice for 1440p gaming and you can often find it for about $300 used.
The RTX 3070 or 3060 12GB could be good options too, but the 3070 might struggle a bit with 1440p.
Yeah, I heard the 3060 just doesn't have enough power compared to others.
Look out for the 9060 XT with 16GB, launching for around $350. If you can snag one, it might be worth it!
Good luck finding that at MSRP though, haha!
Totally agree with the 6700 XT. I used it for a while before upgrading, and it really performed well!
