Budget (including currency): 250 - 300 euro 

Country: Greece

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Mostly Unity and Unreal , i don't play very heavy games

My Rig Now Amd Ryzen 5 2600 , 16 gb ram , a lot of storage.

Im Not sure which gpu to pick. It would be nice if it was something similar to the RX 6600 8GB so i can daisy chain it with my old one

keep in mind i want to upgrade my psu because it didnt supply enough power (550 wats on a rx 550 4gb) and i had some issues.

Do you have links to stores you're buying from?

 

If prices are still as high as the rest of Europe, you're probably not going to find any decent new GPU's under 350...

I wouldn't recommend daisy chaining. Using a seperate cable is always better.

The cheapest GPU I would recommend is the Powercolor Fighter RX 6600 for €330. It's a little over budget but cheaper GPU's aren't that good. You could also get a 1660 Super, but imo the RX 6600 is 100% worth it if possible.

 

I mean running 2 different cables from the PSU to the GPU. Running daisy chain isn't recommended.

alright i will wait a bit and save up for the 6600, but i have a question

if i have 2 gpus (both same brand) will they work together out of the box? or will i have to configure something

Honestly I have no idea. But having 2 GPU's really won't give you any performance boost unless you do some kind of rendering, SLI and Crossfire are long dead.

An RX 550 barely consumes any power. Alongside a 2600, you'd be looking at a load wattage of like 200 watts.

 

Also, you can't "daisy chain" graphics cards together.

Edited by Fasauceome

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
