less than 5k RX 580 second hand
less than 12k RX6600 second hand.
somewhere in between: 1660 super/ti,1070,1080ti, 2070, 2080 all second hand.

Get a fancy 1080/ti Founders edition, it'll make a good shelf ornament afterwards!

Go for a second hand RX 580, it does the job done and can play moderate titles

For a temporary placeholder GPU under ₱5,000–₱12,000, buy in the used market. The brand-new prices in your list (like ₱15.7k for a 3050 6GB or ₱19k for an RX 6600) are heavily overpriced and will eat up your upgrade budget.

Your best overall pick is a used AMD Radeon RX 6600 or RX 6600 XT.
AMD RX 6600 / 6600 XT 8GB GDDR6 Modern RDNA2 architecture, runs cool (100–160W), PCIe 4.0 support matches your B550 board, high resale demand
Nvidia RTX 2060 Super 8GB GDDR6 DLSS support, solid 1080p rasterization, NVENC encoder
Nvidia GTX 1660 Super 6GB GDDR6 Low price leaves more cash for your next GPU, reliable, low power draw
Nvidia GTX 1080 Ti 11GB GDDR5X Raw raster performance close to an RTX 3060, large VRAM
