I just picked up a used Gigabyte RX5600XT Gaming OC off Kijiji for $360. I was initally looking for a GTX1070 or a 1080 in the $300=$350 range, but then I saw this card pop up on Kijiji, and not having any idea what it was, checked out some reviews. The RX5600XT compares favourably to a 1070 or 1080, and is pretty much neck and neck with the RTX2060, depending on what benchmark/game is being used. Seeing as A) I can't find any used RTX2060's for the life of me, and B) they're very expensive new, I figured this 5600XT was a no-brainer. It's a little more than I wanted to spend, but I"m getting a newer card than a 1070 or 1080, with better power consumption, and better performance.
I'm going to run some benches on my 960 before I take it out, so I can compare how much of a performance increase I gained.
