[obeyeddog]

What are some GPUs that are about the same as te GTX 1060 3gb but still in the same price range?

you can go for AMD's RX 580 4GB.
it has similar performance.

These charts are quite problematic since there can be big differences in groups, especially between old vs new cards with a new game like DOOM 3.

It's better to go with an actual benchmark summary like this:

Then use PCPARTPICKER to find card pricing and links.

*graphics card remain overpriced so wait a bit if possible (month or three?)

Currently the GTX1060 3GB starts at roughly $250USD.

None of the AMD card pricing makes sense to me (due to cryptomining) for gaming. And, if you can spend $50 more for a GTX1060 6GB card.

i.e.
GTX1060 3GB ($250USD+)

GTX1060 6GB ($300USD+)

Even that I'd rather have a 2-fan solution ($330):

Prices and Availability also are fluctuating a lot.

While I see your point, it's still a useful tool to at least get a general perspective for the sake of comparison. Once you have that, you can drill down as you've suggested.

Sure, I just find it easiest to jump to a Techpowerup chart (which averages 20 or so games) as it mostly contains all you need.

I recommend only current or last-gen cards.
