Hey everyone! I'm in the UK and I'm looking to upgrade my GPU specifically for gaming. My budget is around £300, but I've got a bit of wiggle room if needed. Here are my current specs: Ryzen 7 2700X, B450 Tomahawk Max motherboard, 32GB RAM, and a 750W power supply. I prefer not to buy used products. Any recommendations?

I'd recommend going for either the RX 6700 XT, RX 7600 XT, or the RTX 4060. They would pair nicely with your Ryzen 7 2700X, though just keep in mind that your CPU might bottleneck slightly with the higher-end cards.
If you don't mind used, a 4060 Ti could be a solid pick. But I understand wanting to stick to new products. If you're considering stretching your budget, check this out [Palit GeForce here](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Palit-GeForce-Express-2632MHz-28000MHz/dp/B0F54D5XSW/ref=sr_1_12?sr=8-12), it's a bit newer!
Honestly, in this price range, new cards typically come with 8GB VRAM, which can be limiting. You might want to hold out until you can afford something like a 5060 Ti with 16GB for better longevity.
In your case, the best options without bottlenecking would be the RX 6600 or 7600, and on the Nvidia side, possibly a 3060. Be cautious with some of the suggestions since your CPU can limit the GPU's full potential.
If you're open to it, consider the Intel Battlemage B580. It's quite fitting within your budget, and you can find it online. Though, what GPU are you using currently?
Just a heads up, it's actually Arc, not Battlemage, but good suggestion!
Just a note, the B580 may not perform as well with your 2700X until the overhead issues are properly addressed.
