Question Need a good gpu

[ww4agent]

I’m looking for a good graphics card for a low cost not really trying to spend over $200 Need it to run 1920x1080 gonna go a lot of gaming and some editing here and their.

My current set up is
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x
Ram: 2x8gb Corsair 3000mhz
And a 550w power source

Which "550W" PSU? Is it a real 550W?

My go to suggestion for a 1080 GPU is the 1060. Or the 580 if you prefer AMD. Either of these should power 1080 gaming just fine. The 580 uses a bit more power but 550W should be plenty for either. Depending on the model and rebate you might need to spend a bit more than $200 though.

Go with an rx 580.

An RX580 would suit your needs and budget and gets good performance.
An Rx570 is even more budget friendly.
Then there's always potentially considering the 1660 / 1660 Ti

And a 550w power source

What's the make and MODEL number of this PSU ?

gtx1060 or rx580 are both easily in your budget, for for the 6gb or 8gb

You might also find a rx590 or gtx1660 for $200 or a little bit more.

RX580 8GB costs around $140-$160 on good sales and performs on par with the GTX1060 6GB which runs $170-$200 on good sales.

~>$150	✡GTX 1050 Ti/GTX 1650 (Pro: low power. Con: RX 570 is way better) ✡RX 570 4/8GB (Pro: Best value at this price. Con: None)
$150-$210	✡GTX 1060 6GB (Pro: Decent card. Con: RX 580 is better) ✡RX 580 8GB (Pro: Better value. Con: High power.)
$220-$260	✡GTX 1660 (Pro: Best card at this price range. Con: None) ✡RX 590 (Pro: Similar performance to GTX 1660. Con: Much higher power, hotter)
$270-$290	✡GTX 1660 Ti (Pro: The best mid range GPU. Con: None, though a Vega 56 at this price range is faster, rarely available)
$300-$330	✡RX Vega 56 (Pro: Fastest card at this price range, with tweaks, can be really powerful. Con: Very high power consumption and temperatures, availability at desired price, the cheapest blower card is terrible)
$340-$400	✡RTX 2060 (Pro: Best mid range GPU with DXR. Con: None.)
$400-$450	✡RX Vega 64 (Pro: Fast and decent semi high end GPU. Con: Much more higher power consumption and temps, need some tweaking to get the optimum performance, so better off with the RTX 2060/2070)
$450-$$$$	Enthusiast territory. ✡RTX 2070 ✡Radeon VII ✡RTX 2080 ✡RTX 2080 Ti
