Question Which of these gpu's should I get?

[zadius_]

Hello, I'm looking for a new gpu, right now I only have ryzen 3 3200g. Since I'm from Europe most of the gpu's are overpriced compared to UK or USA. I'm looking at something like a 1650/1660/rx 580. I can get rx580 8gb oc for around 220$ new, 1650 for around 265$ and for the 1660, I can get biostar 1660 super for around 300$ and gigabyte 1660 for around 300$. I can't find a 1650 super in stock anywhere in my country. So I don't know what to do.. help pls

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

What is the make and model of the PSU you're currently working with and it's age? If you've been dealing with an APU, either of those GPU's listed are a huge step above the Ryzen 3 2200G APU.

I'd also ask you to be wary of your case dimensions since some cases can be notorious for not allowing users to drop in card that are tall or long, in other words, cards with beefy coolers.

Perhaps you can pass on a link to a preferred site for purchase in order for us to see what you have access to...?

Hi, this is the site for gpu's, as for the psu I have Raidmax RX-600AE-M, it's a 600w 80+ gold psu, I had it for like 2 months. As for the pricing on the site, it's in rsd(110 rsd=1 usd).

It depends on your budget and the requirement of the GPU. Like if your budget is around $220 - $265 then both
rx580 8gb oc and 1650 are ideal or if you have a huge budget then go for the higher one.

Ok, sorry for being "away" for a few days. What about newegg refurbished gpus? There are some from China that are around 200$, does anyone know if it is worth buying, should I stick with new gpu or myb look into buying a used one from my country? Since my budget is around 250$

at this budget, i would definitely look for the local used market. Bring you PC to test the hardware.

last christmass i bought a 5700xt for 200$CAD for my wife. the person was super nice and he prepared a PC with the superposition benchmark, so i could verify the card before to buy.
it's human interaction so YMMV
anyways, 200$+ for a rx580 in 2023 is ridiculous. they could be bought new at launch years ago for less. in 2017. that's 6 years ago !

well, the best thing I found as of right now, I can either buy a biostar 1650 super or asus 1650 ddr6 for about the same price. What should I get?
1650 super
1650

GTX 1650 Super should be a solid 1080p gaming card if you aren't particular about max settings. IMO, I wouldn't buy used.

 

[zadius_]

yea but would it be a problem that 1650 super is biostar?

Biostar is not bad. That particular model isn't the best for cooling. Performance should be good, but cooling could be lacking.
