suggestions Looking for AMD GPU Suggestions

[Zettsyuk]

First post, apologies if this is not allowed.

 

I just bought a Ryzen 5 3600 and am looking for a good AMD GPU suggestion. I was looking at the 5700 XT but would love to hear other suggestions. I have an MSI 1080p monitor that has 144hz and Freesync so I'd love to take advantage of both features. I mainly play Warzone, Hunt: Showdown, CS, Valorant and Battlefield games. I am currently running a GTX 1060 3GB. I'd like to keep the price around $600 CAD but if a cheaper card will do the trick I'd love to save the money obviously.

 

Thanks in advance guys!

Save your money for now and get a card in September when RTX 3000 and Nvai2 come

The 5600XT (with the 14Gbps memory VBIOS) comes in at around the same price as the RTX 2060 while performing slightly better. But, if you can afford the 5700XT, I'd say get that, it's a great card - nearly 2070 Super performance for 100 USD less.

 

That being said, Nvidia's Ampere and AMD's RDNA2 are most likely coming in late Q3/early Q4, so it might be worth holding on to your money, as you might be getting a lot more for your money then.

Never thought of that. I guess the 5700xt would come down in price too by then.

Thanks for the suggestion! Do you think the 5600 XT would run 144Hz okay?

Depends on the game. CSGO? Sure. Witcher 3? Nope
