Upgrade graphics card

Beanboy128

Hey y'all. I have an AMD r7 360 and I think It's time for an upgrade. It worked well enough five years ago but I'm really feeling it now. Are there any recommendations for a low budget card that works better than this? Thanks.

I'll come back with my resolution but I play mainly suped up minecraft, overwatch, rainbow six siege and ARK on potato settings. I'm good with used as long as it works.

If your playing at 1080p then a used RX 580 for around $120 will be a great upgrade. Just make sure your PSU can handle the card.

oh yeah I'm not trying 4k or anything crazy, I've got two old office monitors. Thanks for the recommendation.

NP! These cards can be commonly found for under for 110 https://www.ebay.com/itm/XFX-Radeon-RX-580-4GB-GDDR5-Graphics-Card-RX580P427D6/203246861830?epid=6010707206&hash=item2f5274fe06:g:i44AAOSwSH1f~vUg

what about a NVIDIA 1060?

Those are also good, but this is slightly faster, has more vram, and is cheaper in the used market.
