Hello!
I want to build a new pc whis winter, and i 90% i only play cs2, the 10% being lighter games such as bf1, gtav and battlefront 2.
I was thinking about the ryzen 7 5700x3d. But since i play 4:3 on 1280x960 resolution, i guess i should invest more in the cpu? I dont want to play any modern aaa games like starfield and such. I was thinking about the 6650xt because for 1080p 8 gb of vram is enough, especially for esports, and i have no plans on playing 1440p or 4k. My 10105f cant provide 144fps anymore all of the time and its time to upgrade. I want to pair the new system with a 240hz 1080p monitor. Anyone who has the same cpu or something similar and play cs2, are these specs enough to push 240+ fps all of the time? I have seen benchmark videos with the 1660super, so i guess the 6650xt is more than capeable.

Thanks in advance.

What settings do you play CS2 at? If you want a minimum FPS of 240 at 1080p you are going to need to get parts much more expensive than you linked depending on if you want higher in-game settings:

Here is a parts list that can achieve 240 minimum FPS at 1080p no matter the settings in CS2:

I think that would be a decent combo for your game titles. RX 7600 is roughly the same price as well.
Sorry for my late reply i was at work. The 16 gb rx 7600xt and the rx 6750xt 12 gb are roughly the same price in my country, the 7600xt being 15-20 dollars cheaper. They still fit my budget, would these two be good with my ryzen 7 5700x3d? I feel like that could run some games in 1440p even. Or is there any decent option in the price range of these two?
Thanks!

Thanks for the info!
I would play only 4:3, so 1280x960, 1024x728 and max 1440x 1080 on competetive ( almost the lowest settings) And it doesnt need to be all of the time above 240, just like 90% of the time. From the video i have seen with the 1660 super, the fps rarely dropped under 280. So the 6750xt or 7600xt should be fine i guess.

Now that i have seen some reviews the 6750xt is clearly better then the 7600xt even if its a bit more expensive.
