So, the time has come to upgrade my i7 4790k and GTX 760.

I’m looking at getting the following, but I’m stuck on what graphics card to get (this is something I am happy to replace in a couple of years, if I was to get something like the 4060)

PC specs that I have landed on.

  • AMD 7800X3D
  • 32gb of DDR5 6000Mhz CL36 rammy boys
  • Gigabyte B650 ATX motherboard
  • Noctua 140mm CPU cooler

I am carrying over the following from my old PC

  • Case (Fractal Disign Pop)
  • SSD storage
  • EVGA 850w gold PSU

I am having difficulty picking a graphics card, I’m looking at the 4060, is there anything as good as from team Red that I could consider? I do plan on upgrading in a couple of years time.

    I’ve had Gigabyte motherboards since my first build in 2006, I will always use Gigabyte, only had one fail on me (it was a Z79 ) it was 6 years old when it was repurposed from my gaming PC and then went into 24/7 use as a home server, then it died after 2 years, 8 years of heavy use is alright in my book. My new server has a gigabyte board too and that’s been on 24/7 for about 6 months now, no issues to date.
