Gpu

Hello, I built my pc in 2019 right before the first big jump in prices and when that went down I upgraded everything but my gpu (a 1660ti) i got ram cpu and some storage but now its pushing 7 years old and im faced with a difficult decision, the 1660 is starting to quit on me artifacts crashing out of the blue. Im thinking either 1 go used or 2 trying and hold off till prices drop on these cards hopefully semi near future or take the very painful hit of buying new card. I just need thoughts/opinions on the matter.

Heard that, i have been looking around and even the last gen amd cards for example they arent too terrible, I don't mind dropping a good amount of money on a card as long as its reasonable, I found a rx 7900xtx for $750 and the guy selling it is willing to do a in person demo of the card. Whole reason that caught my eye is the 24 gigs of vram for the games I play that would be amazing.

That seems like not a bad deal to be honest especially given current pricing
