I'm trying to decide between two AMD GPUs that are priced similarly: the RX 7600 8GB and the RX 9060 XT 8GB. I'm planning to add one to my existing setup with a Ryzen 5 5600G CPU. My goal is to play games at 1080p with high to ultra graphics, though I typically don't play very demanding titles. Also, I'm gaming on Fedora Linux. Which GPU do you think is more suitable for my needs, and will it pair well with my CPU? Here are my current specs: Motherboard - Gigabyte A520M H, CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, and RAM - 16GB.

The RX 9060 XT is definitely the better choice; it's about 50% faster and supports FSR 4, which is essential for a smooth gaming experience at 1080p, especially on high settings. If you can find the 16GB model, I'd suggest considering that too, as 8GB might start running into issues for high graphics in some games soon.
Appreciate your time!
