I'm building a gaming PC for my wife using spare parts from an old build. It's powered by a Ryzen 3700x, 32 GB of DDR4 RAM at 3600 MHz, and I have a Gigabyte Aorus X570 motherboard along with a 1 TB Crucial P1 SSD and an EVGA Supernova P2 650 W power supply. Currently, she's gaming on an MSI Gaming X RX480 and an Acer Nitro VG271U monitor that supports 2K at 144Hz. She's interested in playing games like Baldur's Gate 3, World of Warcraft, and Hogwarts Legacy.
I'm considering upgrading her graphics card to either the Radeon 9060 XT or the Arc B580 over the holidays. Which one do you think would be a better choice to pair with the Ryzen 3700x? Thanks in advance for your help!

If you're using a 2K monitor, the 9060 XT is the way to go. Your 3700x will pair excellently with it at that resolution, so you should have a fantastic gaming experience!
I'd definitely go for the Radeon 9060 XT! It’s around 33% faster than the B580, and it will really shine with your setup, especially with that 2K monitor.
Thank You. Will pick 9060 XT, any model recommendations?
