Which GPU is a good fit for my Intel i3 setup?
Asked by
GamerDude92
I'm currently using an Intel i3-8100 CPU and have 8GB of DDR4 RAM, but I'm upgrading to 16GB soon. I don't want to change my CPU because it works well with Minecraft using mellow shaders and gives me over 20 FPS. For other games, I'm getting 60+ FPS, but I feel I could improve significantly with a dedicated GPU. I'm on a budget as a low-end gamer but plan to upgrade my system later. Any suggestions for a GPU that pairs well with my setup? Also, I just realized I don't know the wattage of my power supply since my PC is prebuilt. What's an acceptable GPU option?

The GTX 1660 Super has been a popular choice for mid-range setups for a while. It's a solid match for your i3, ensuring stable frame rates without overwhelming your CPU. You can often find it used or refurbished for around $110 to $130, which is a decent price!

PCWiz99: I was initially looking at the RX 6600. How does that compare to the 1660 Super?
