Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my PC since my current GPU, a GTX 1650, is getting a bit old. My setup includes an i5-10400F and 16GB of DDR4 RAM. I've been researching, and I've narrowed it down to two GPUs that fit within my budget of about €300 to €370 (which includes the cost of a new PSU—I'm considering a Be Quiet! System Power 11 650W).
The GPUs I'm looking at are the RX 7600 XT (16GB) and the RX 9600 XT (8GB). Initially, I was leaning towards the RX 6750 XT, but I've heard it's outdated and not worth the investment anymore. While the RX 9600 XT seems solid, I've read that gaming on a GPU with only 8GB of VRAM can be a real hassle. So, I found the RX 7600 XT, but I came across a comparison on TechPowerUp that suggests it's about 30% weaker than the RX 6750 XT, which makes me question whether it's worth the same price.
For some context, here are the prices in my country (Baguette):
- RX 6750 XT: €320
- RX 9600 XT (8GB): €310
- RX 7600 XT: €310
- RX 9600 XT (16GB): €390 (which is out of my budget)
Thanks a bunch for any advice you can give! 🙂

If you're trying to stick to your budget, I'd say the 6750 XT isn't a bad choice, but keep in mind it might lead you to spend more down the line if you opt for an 8GB card. You may want to consider how VRAM impacts your gaming experience, especially if you're into more demanding titles.
Yeah, but the power consumption of the 6750 XT is on the higher side. It could get pretty hot, especially in the summer!
