Hey, So i'm building my first PC and i'm looking to get a decent budget build.

I don't really play much AAA games other than rainbow six siege, other games i play are planetary annihilation, space engineers, city skylines, and CIV games.

 

I already have a Ryzen 5 2600 picked out, and i'm looking at good GPU options, for the most part i have been looking at

GTX 1050

GTX 1060

GTX 1660 / SUPER / TI

 

Radeon 570 / 580 /590

 

Any input and help would be appreciated!

The GTX 1660 Super and Ti have extremely little difference in performance, quite negligible to the point where I'd recommend you go for the 1660 Super if possible. With the 1660 Super you get more performance for your money. You can check the differences here.

 

AMD cards currently have some driver issues; I was warned about them when considering my options to upgrade to a newer, better card than my previous one (GTX 1060 3gb). I ended up going with an nVidia card because I didn't want the hassle of dealing with funky drivers.
