GPU upgrading advice

[julixg]

Hey guys, first post! Maybe this gets asked hell of a lot of times, but I got a RX5600 (non-XT, OEM Version) and a Ryzen 5 1600 (AF Model if that matters) and I've been thinking if I should wait for the RTX 3060 or get a RX 5700XT or an RTX2060S/2070. I don't care if the part's used or not, and I really just want 1080P Ultra 60+FPS for the future (Cyberpunk 2077 and later).

You're better off waiting for next gen since you'll be getting better value for you money out of the new card.

normally i would encourage you to just go for an rx 5700 xt, but your pc should be okay for the next couple months. try and save up a little more to even get a 3070 if possible!

The thing that worries me about getting a 3070 is that I don't know if I would have to change CPUs due to bottlenecking. Or that Ryzen should be good?

you would most likely be bottle necked, but you can always upgrade to a 2700x and get a 3060 if you want. It really just depends what games/workloads you would be using it for
