 Hi, I was wondering if anyone can give some input into my build that I have, I am just looking to replace the GPU as my RX 5700XT died, currently my parts that I have right now are,

 

CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 5800X

Mobo - MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX

Ram - 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200

PSU - EVGA 700W 80+ Bronze

CPU Fan - be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 50.5 CFM CPU Cooler (This can be changed out later it's huge and massive in my case)

Case - Fractal Design Focus G

 

I have found a couple people selling their old GPU cards one is a GTX 1660ti, 1050ti, R9 200 Series, Rx 580 8gb.

 

Out of these cards, which would be the best one to get for a temporary solution. I like to game currently. I was in the middle of Baldur's Gate 3 when my GPU died, I also do the odd stream and record gameplay videos through OBS.

 

And if for the future, what should I invest in for a better GPU I would say under $500 to $700 Canadian dollars.

1660 Ti is the best for your needs. Fastest of those, better H.264 encoder.

Purify your Windows 10/11, don't give Microsoft anything that you don't want to share.

Out of those GPUs, yes 1660Ti is the best choice, assuming the price is somewhat close to each other.

As for this, how far in the future is it? I'll assume it is longer than a month, so you have to ask again when you are within a week or two before purchase.

GPU prices changes quickly, within a few months prices could be different, significantly different.
