I'm currently using an i5 8500 and a RX 6600, and I'm looking to upgrade my CPU to a Ryzen 5700X3D. I'm considering which GPU to pair with it: the RX 9060 XT (priced at 650 AUD), the RX 9070 (priced at 900 AUD), or the RX 9070 XT (priced at 1,050 AUD). Any recommendations or insights on which GPU would be the best value?

Yeah, I agree with TechSavvy88. Those prices for the 5700X3D are way too high right now. If you’re not in a rush, it might be worth waiting a bit for the prices to settle. For the GPUs, the RX 9060 XT will definitely do the job for 1080p, but if you want a better experience at 1440p, the non-XT RX 9070 is a much better choice. The 9070 XT is amazing, but only go for it if you’re set on long-term high performance.
Before you settle on that Ryzen 5700X3D, I'd advise checking for better deals. The prices seem really high right now for that CPU, so I'd suggest considering the Ryzen 5800X; it’s a solid chip and significantly cheaper at around 350 AUD. As for GPUs, the RX 9060 XT is a decent choice for 1080p or even 1440p gaming if you're on a budget. If you can stretch your budget a little, the RX 9070 is a fantastic option and offers a substantial performance boost for 1440p gaming. The 9070 XT is also great but just make sure your power supply can handle it, as it does require a bit more power!
