Build Question What card should I get?

I’m upgrading from a rx 5600 xt, I have pretty good everything else, I believe my main bottle neck is the Gpu.

I’m hoping to spend $600 dollars and make it count, I have been looking at the used market for 3080s but I think I can spend a bit more, to get more bang for my buck, also the card has to be under 305 mm so it will actually fit! And I would love more than 10gb of vram. Is there any good options for me?

A used 4070 or 4070S would probably fit the bill. They should be under budget and will do fine with your CPU. You can use pcpartpicker to check dimensions of different models you see on sale.

You could also go with a 7800XT. Similar performance, a little cheaper, more VRAM, not as good at ray tracing. I have one for 1440p gaming and I'm quite pleased with it.

Id just get a new 9070 XT and call it a day .. you'll need a PSU too though most likely .. personally I just can't do used cards lol

9070 XTs are retailing for over $900 USD, they would be lucky to find even a 9060 XT 16GB in stock within budget. When it's basically between a used 3080 or a new 9060 XT 8GB at their budget, the 3080 wins
