Hello, I am looking to upgrade my GPU, back when I built my current computer, most cards were sold out so I never ended up getting one. I'm looking to upgrade it now. My current build is this: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7bYcMV with a zotac geforce gtx1060 6gb ddr5 card. Thank you!

APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: As soon as possible

BUDGET RANGE: Ideally around $500 CAD, but if I can get more for my money within +- 100, that would be fine.

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming, streaming. I really want to play cities skylines 2, preferably, would be able to handle upcoming games as well if at all possible at this price range.

CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: Zotac geforce gtx1060 6gb ddr5 card with SeaSonic FOCUS Plus Platinum 650 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply.

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Canada

PARTS PREFERENCES: No preference as long as its reliable

OVERCLOCKING: No/Maybe

SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No

MONITOR RESOLUTION: I have two monitors set at 1920x1080

RX 6700XT/6750XT (not sure about 6750 availability, but it'd be worth an extra $20-30 over the 6700) are pretty much the best perf/$ you're going to see in your price range.

The 4060/4060 Ti seem especially poorly priced in canada. The 7800XT (6800XT seems to be about the same price as these) and 4070 are both well outside your budgeted range.

Thanks! Would one of these two be what I am looking for?
