Which GPU upgrade should I choose for better gaming performance?

For around $170, you can get a used RTX 2070 Super, or if you can stretch your budget a bit, the RTX 3060 12GB is available for about $200. Both are solid upgrades for your setup!

For any newbies, there’s a great site called tomshardware.com that updates GPU hierarchy charts every year. It’s super helpful for comparing cards based on their performance!

For a solid performance boost, consider looking for a used 3080 or a used 6800 XT. They're powerhouse cards and should handle your favorite games well!

I recommend checking out the 6600 XT, which you can often find for around $175. The 6700 and the 2070 are also really good options for budget 1080p gaming.

Start by setting a clear budget. If it’s under $300, including tax, you might need to explore the used market. It can be a bit of a hunt, but sometimes you can snag a fantastic deal!
