Hello, I built my first PC a month ago with a Ryzen APU (3200g) with plans to get a dedicated card for the holidays. Well my brother-in-law has incredibly gifted me a graphics card for my birthday! It's Christmas in July!! Now I need to choose!
I will play games like Civ. 6, Planet Coaster, the Sims, etc. I'm a fan of RTS and Simulation and want something that will perform well with these type of games. There are so many options and this is the first GPU I've ever purchased so I'm looking for help. I would like very much to stay under $180(US). Any suggestions, advice would be appreciated!
Note: I'm not particularly attached to either brand AMD vs Nvidia--change my mind?
EDIT: OOPS forgot to share my specs!
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
Motherboard: MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX Micro ATX
Memory: Team T-FORCE VULCAN Z 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200
Storage: Western Digital Blue 500 GB 2.5
Case: Cooler Master MasterBox NR400MicroATX Mid
Power Supply: Thermaltake Smart 500 W 80+ Certified ATX
