Hey guys. 

I’m building my first PC and I can’t decide on a graphics card. So I’m using a CX750M for my powersupply, an Asus ROG Strix b450-F, 16g 3200MHz ram, and a Ryzen 5 2600X. What do you guys think would be a good GPU to pair? I was thinking a 1660 6 gig.

It depends on budget. Go for a 2060 if possible and use a 650W instead. You dont need 750

Thanks mate. The 750 was a gift from a friend so I figured ‘why not?’

1660 is great for 1080P, overclock to match 1660ti.

do you think you can wait till ryzen 3000 cpu & navi gpu?

Yeah if you got that as a gift, might as well put it in there for future proofing. But yeah I would probably say 2060 as well

I’m honestly really thinking about it. I just hope the B450-F will still be compatible.

ONE QUICK THING. I’m hoping to run at 120 Hz or so.

Yes I'm almost certain it will be compatible, not 100% sure, but looking at what they did with 1st gen to 2nd gen, id say its safe to say that they will continue the same chipset/pin layout.

Vega 56 Pulse, 2060.
These are your options. Wouldn't recommend going with used 1080 as performance difference is minimal
