I am a 3D graphic designer. I want to buy a graphics card for this purpose.
My system configuration is

1. CPU i5-14500
2. Motherboard- B760M DS3H AX
3. RAM- corsair 16X2GB DDR 5 5200
4. SSD WD 1TB NVME SN850X GEN4
5. SMPS COOLER MASTER MWE550W
6. SCREEN RESOLUTION. 1920X1080

Softwares I want to run on this system are:
3D MAX 2016 with V-Ray
Blender 3.2
After effects
The core work in this software is developing
Product animation
Raytraceing

Please guide me on which graphic cards would work smoothly with these softwares without a bottleneck issue.
 
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

We will need to know where you're located, what your budget for said GPU purchase is and your preferred site for purchase.

Just an observation, you'd have gotten some performance uplift if you went with a tight latencied DDR5-6000MHz ram kit.

Coolermaster have a number of MWE 550W units, which one do you have and how old is it? make and model of your case in the event we might run into clearance issues for your GPU.
 
I am from India,
My budget is about Rupees 25000 to 30000.
The preferred sites for purchase are MD Computer, Amazon, and Flipkart.
I assembled my computer on 22 July 2024
PSU bronze MWE 550w on 22 July 2024
 
Sir,
very thankful for your concern regarding my request. I am unable to upload the image. Therefore, mention the product description
MWE BRONZE V2 230V 550W A/IN
MPE-5501-ACABW-BIN

And I will add the suggestion to look at the software you will be running.

Most software applications present some sort of hardware requirements in the form of "minimal", "recommended", and "best".

You do not want "minimal" and you do want as much "best" as you can afford.

Your budget being roughly $295 to$ 350 USD - correct?
 
If I buy an RTX 3060 with my 550W PSU, is it possible that I will face any PSU-related issues?

Or, if I buy an RTX 4060, is it possible that my i5-14500 CPU will cause any bottlenecking?
