Budget Gaming Build (update: video card upgrade)

I think most people play Online games which I dont think needs a lot of vram, unless the person is playing Ark Ascended that games chews up ram also , myself I play mostly games that are not online which I noticed to need at least 16 Gb vram for my settings I was caught off guard last year when playing the newest dragon age and at times I was lagging then I did a boss fight and lagged out was getting 15-20 FPS I could figure out why I thought that my 16 GB 6800xt was toast so I checked and it the game was swallowing up 15.4Gb vram which this game really doesn't have the best graphics, I ended up buying a vidcard with 24 gb ram because the card was on special also it wasn't a Nvid card which I think are 80% overpriced, as far as I am concerned those cards are more for professional developers and unless you need those Cuba cores and other things on Nvidcard. but a Nvid cards just for gaming nah, that's my opinion the money I saved I put into other things in my PC like second 4Tb Drive for all my games and otehr files and still had a little left over
 
The NVIDIA side would mostly be for DLSS4 support, as I believe more games have that compared to FSR4 on the AMD side.

I had thought the 9060XT was slower than the 7700XT in raster, which would make it slower than the 5060Ti too. Maybe it's just certain games though.

Keep an eye out for Black Friday sales though, it's likely the best time to buy now.
 
Thanks guys. I've sent him links to the 5060ti from Best Buy for $610 as well as a link to a 9060XT for $490 at Canada Computers (Powercolour). Both 16GB. I suggested the Nvidia might be better in some instances. If I'm wrong there let me know.
RM850e Power Supply going to be good for either of these? I assume so, just making sure :)


5060ti - $536
 

5060ti - $536
Gone as well, there was a 5070 earlier today for like $479. Amazon is either messing up the USD to CAD prices or dropping some hot deals lol

Haha yeah I sent him that link and he said he would do it after making dinner. I then replied it was gone lol

Haha ok I've sent it off. Let's see if he is able to act quickly on this one before it ends.

Looks like there's lots of stock though.
