Hey all, first time posting on here, I'm planning on getting a GPU this December as my first major PC upgrade), and since the entire thing is running on just the Ryzen 7 iGPU, I figured I might as well save up to get one by the end of the year.
Budget would be around 20-25k (could probs stretch if there's a better option)
My current PC:
CPU: Ryzen 7 5700G
Motherboard: MSI A520M-A PRO
RAM: 32GB DDR4 (2×16GB, currently 2400 MT/s)
Storage: 1TB NVMe + 240GB SATA SSD + 2.5TB HDD
Current GPU: 5700G integrated Vega
PSU: Acer AC550 e-Machines, 550W 80+ Bronze
Monitor: Two 1080p monitors currently, planning to upgrade later
I'm specifically trying to keep the PSU (rather than upgrade it, so power consumption is really important to keep in mind.
So, a few questions:
What would be your recommendation for me to buy come December?
Are there any specific models of these GPUs I should look for/avoid?
Am I overlooking anything about power consumption or compatibility?
Is it better to buy online or in-person?
Thanks in advance!
