Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- 9060 XT 16 GB. Don't look any further, unless you want to go used.
- So best choice is the 9060XT 16GB, slightly more than 300.- but worth the extra cost.
- the 9060 XT 16GB is a really great 1080p card that can manage 1440p, too, so it's a good buy, itself.
- If you are ready to move on to 1440p then I'd definitely trade it in and get it!
- That puts you into 9060xt 16GB at $380ish.
Cons
- Or 9060xt with 8GB for $279, but given newer games, I'd really recommend moving beyond 8GB.
- the 5060TI/9060XT 8gb, in a VRAM limited scenario will lose about 20% performance going down to 4.0 and somewhere between 30% and 50% when using 3.0.
- Your current board is only pcie 3.0 which will negatively impact performance of your 9060xt, to a noticeable degree.
- Pairing an x3d with a “mid range” GPU like a 5060ti or 9060xt isn’t the best way to spread your money
- If he's referring to the 5060 ti and the 9060 XT 16 gb then he's going to sorely disappointed that the processing power of those cards will under pace the Vram..

9060XT is nearly twice as fast and you get FSR4, no brainer there
Cheapest upgrade would be a RX 9060 XT 16 GB or the RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB for Nvidia.
As an AMD alternative, the RX 9060 XT 16 GB and RX 9070 are good options too.
RX 9060XT 16 GB, I'm using that even for 4k 60 FPS gaming. New titles need to rely on FSR4 (optiscaler) obviously and lower some settings but still achievable. For 1440p this card will do you wonders.
