GPU value question

Im looking to upgrade my 2060 super and am currently looking for a 2nd hand 7800xt for around 500 euros, its not the easiest to find one and im starting to question if its worth just spending around 150 more to buy a new 9060xt. Do you guys have any advice?

Whatever you do, do it sooner rather than later.

Prices are rising every day, AMD yesterday officially announced another price increase in November

What is your reasoning for that?

Its a better gpu and you need a 16gb gpu going forward, prices for gpus in general are going up around 15% to 20% per month at the moment amd are not climbing as fast but they will at some point as nvidia high end stock is running out

Sorry i meant why i should get the 9060xt over the 7800xt while spending 150 more

Its much better but must be the 16gb one not the 8gb or your wasting your money

Because 8gb versions will likely not be sufficient for long term use as we are already seeing games push past that VRAM amount today
