70 euros is a fair trade for 960 ish performance.

QUOTE ME  FOR ANSWER.

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)

Oh no, it'll trip on this GPU at best, if not explode at worst. That's very old group-regulated PSU, it's not okay even for rather low-end GPUs not to mention for 300W one.

You better off buying a new RX570, they're very cheap recently, about 120$ in US, that's almost twice more but considering that you'll definitely need to replace PSU for R9 380 so you can't use it now, you can instead get RX570 now for the same money (as R9 380 + a new PSU), it'll be 40-50% faster, you'll need to upgrade PSU anyway but you can do it a bit further down at least.

No that was a pretty good PSU for that time period. You're good.

I also found this GPU with 210 euros https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/asus-radeon-rx-580-strix-review,39.html is it worth it for the price?...
So what i am thinking: either buy a cheap GPU and replace it later with better (since i will play games according to my hardware potential) OR get a good gpu that will work for future upgrades as well.
What do u think? (any thoughts).
Also consider the Power Supply i have right now no matter what GPU I get..
