Gtx 1660 ti, Rx 5700 xt or used Gtx 1080?

Vod

Hello!

I was thinking of building a new pc for myself to play games that are coming out this year at high/highest settings on 1080p on games like doom eternal and cyberpunk 2077
I don't know which graphics card I should pick out though so this is what I've picked out to see what would be the best option for me (I'm open to more suggestions) :
Gtx 1660ti at €245: https://geizhals.de/zotac-gaming-geforce-gtx-1660-ti-zt-t16610f-10l-a1994499.html?hloc=at&hloc=de&hloc=uk
Rx 5700 xt at €380: https://geizhals.de/xfx-radeon-rx-5700-xt-thicc-ii-ultra-rx-57xt8dbd6-a2130310.html?hloc=at&hloc=de
Gtx 1080 at €370: https://www.ebay.de/itm/Palit-GeForce-GTX-1080-Jetstream-Aktiv-8GB-GDDR5X-PCIe-3-0-x16-HDMI/254189546148?epid=1174772198&hash=item3b2ee0aaa4%3Ag%3AArsAAOSw9KBd9PJK&LH_BIN=

 

Was thinking of pairing one of those cards with a 2600 (maybe even a 3600 but probably not) depending on how much money I have left.

Also I don't know when I'm going to start buying my pc parts.

That used 1080 is a pretty bad deal in this case, since for just €10 more you can get that 5700XT which is faster and most importantly has warranty. But since you're playing at 1080p, the CPU is more of a factor when it comes to performance in games, compared to higher resolutions. If you can, I would suggest saving up and getting the Ryzen 3600 with the 5700XT, but if you can't afford both, the 3600 with a 1660 Super (same performance as the Ti but cheaper) would also be a great pairing for 1080p. There's no way to know for certain at the moment unfortunately how Cyberpunk 2077 will run on current hardware, but I'd imagine it will be fairly CPU intensive, with its large open world and tons of NPCs everywhere.

The 3600 will give you about 10% more fps with the 1080ti or 5700xt tho. So maybe think about that as well 

 

Also it depends on what resolution and refresh rate you play. Generally speaking I would pick the 5700xt. 

 

But if you're just gaming at 1080p I would pick the 3600x and the 1660ti for future proofing.

You can get an rtx 2060 for $299(USD)

 

Nvidia has reference cards at that price, evga has the 2060 KO version if its in stock

Could I get an used Ryzen 7? 

If I get one I think I could squeeze the 5700 xt into my budget
