noob trying to upgrade gpu

[idkpc]

hello,

 

I have  an i5 3470  and a rx 560 (2gb) and I want to upgrade it because it kind of struggles with some of the games I play at 1080p low settings. I know my cpu is old but I'm wondering what would be a good choice for an upgrade. my budget is about $300 and I have 450 wat power supply  

 

plz help if you can

You can get an RX 570 for well below 300.

thank you, also what the difference between the 570 and the 580

An RTX 2060 or an RX5600XT, they are at 300€ ( at least in my country) or if u cant find one i recommend an GTX 1660 Super.

a 2060 or a 5600 xt will bottleneck this cpu. I recommend a 1650s.

half the vram (in most cases) and about a 5-10 fps difference in games

580 is better than the rx 570. the 580 gets a bit more fps in games than the 570

A 1660Ti should fall into your budget just fine and within the power constraints of your PSU. Even if your system doesn't have the juice, you can snag a 1660Ti and a 750W 80+ Gold PSU for just under $300.
