Question What graphics cards for under 300 can play world of warcraft on ultra?

[PurrfectMeow]

I purchased the RX570 way back in 2018 and World of Warcraft claims now that it is out of date. I am looking to massively upgrade it so I can play on ultra like I was able to years ago. I would like to spend under 250, but am willing to go as high as 300ish. Does anyone know of any that I can get for that price range that will be a huge upgrade from my current card? Also I would much prefer another Radeon/AMD card because in my experience they last longer (Had I think a nvidia one before that just died after 2 years)

6700 (10GB) or 6700XT (12GB).

If you go used you can find them pretty cheap.

8GB cards are DOA/obsolete

Thanks for the reply. Do you mean obsolete for just the higher end games? Because most of what I'm finding are 8gb cards.

6700xt is a great card as is the Intel ARC 770

look 8gb cards are fine for WOW but why waste money on a 8gb card ..
When the 16gb ARC770 or a 6700xt at 12gb ( honestly id prefer the ARC770 with 16gb and i have both) can be had at a great price and giving you head room for other games later on !!

ARC770 is 400, OP said 300.

And 8GB is obsolete because a lot of games require more than 8GB. Recently (I think 2) games that were previously compatible with 8GB suddenly weren't.

There's no point in spending money on something that is dead. Will 8GB play WoW in the way you want? Most likely but again, you are going to spend money to spend a chunk of change just to play 1 game at higher graphics and lock yourself out from future games? Not a wise move IMO.
