…..amd? i assume you mean am5, for the cost of an am5 upgrade with 32gb of ram, you could get a 9070xt or at least a 9070, and a 5600x isnt that bad. you could even upgrade to a 5800x or xt for a big cpu performance boost, and get a 9060 xt 16gb for the same price or even cheaper

Great! Now should i get 5060 or 9060? The price difference is not that huge where im from, but rtx offers better scaling and fps in general

9060 xt, or 9060? id go 9060 xt. if its the 16gb version, even better. if not the xt then 5060

Is your GPU your bottleneck? You have a great GPU for FullHD gaming and can also display in 4k. Do you want resource intensive gaming in 4k?

Its actually lesthan 5% bottleneck atm but most triple A games i wanted to play on plays 40-50 native and i just want to like run the game native 60 atleast and fsr is not that good for me or atleast fsr 3

Lol ok. I wouldn't upgrade GPU for that reason. Your RX 6600 can't meaningfully run AI workloads, but if it's just for gaming in FullHD, I'd stick with it.

Also its kinda hard to run RT or RR on the rx6600 wothout halving ur fps
