i have a 3070 that's been crapping out for years. i was too lazy to send it to service since i couldn't figure out how to enable my integrated graphics and i need a pc for work. now it's out of warranty. i think it's the gpu because the crash log shows nvidia drivers and it often artifacts and shit when it crashes.
i haven't played a game since elden ring was released. but i'd like something that could at least play out on low settings if something interesting came out.
thinking of an rtx 3050 or gtx 1660. they seem about the same. but also thinking of an arc a580 or a750. but i don't want to fuck around with drivers and shit, and so i'm wary of that with a new gpu brand.
maybe it's just because i'm an elder millennial but "intel = the best" is still in my mind. crazy they're the underdog between nvidia and amd. cleaning towards just getting an rtx3050 since it's newer and i guess nvida is world class with drivers and shit. i just want it to work.

The point is performance. There's no "excessive" when you have 474 xo windows and can max kingdom comes and no slow down on 4 monitors (probably a dual GPU rig necessary for that). You will understand when you get a nice rig (not insane, but nice)
Productivity gains to be had, trust me.
Buy a macbook if you want on the go performance.

You dumb motherfucker gettin me hyped for PC shit after 15 years
Am shocked how little the scene has changed. Maybe "AI" is bullshit after all and is just a collection of GPUs spewing out random garbage

hold off on upgrading until late 2024/early 2025
team green and team red are both clearing out inventory for the next-gen releases. you want to wait things out and see what kind of price/perf youll get with these upcoming cards.
most recent gen turned out to be literal shit because you no longer get a generational leap in perf, e.g. 3060 ti literally outperforming the 4060 and matching the 4060ti, the 6800 xt basically on par with the 7800xt, etc.
battlemage is also releasing this year so skip arc a770/750/etc.

my rx570s fans literally stopped spinning and i had to de-shroud and remove the entire cooler as well. repasted + replaced fans and it runs at 50c
if you want to go the MOST economical route, clean and repaste your card. if you cant repair it yourself and ABSOLUTELY need to upgrade, think in tiers:
super budget:
rx 570 8gb or rx580
arc a380
gtx 1660(ti)
budget:
6600xt or 6650xt
arc a750
rtx 3060
mid-range:
3060ti
arc a770
no point in going beyond mid-range for your needs. avoid nvidia in general because they offer the worst price/perf. you also risk getting mined cards when you buy used so be careful if you go that route. youll regret not waiting for next-gen releases though, d00d

yeah learning the new tech is annoying as fuck but it doesnt take too long, only took me a month or two to get caught up - i literally was a hardcore gamer back in the geforce4 4200 ti days. then completely stopped keeping up until late last year when i upgraded
xt = equivalent to ti, higher end model of the base, e.g. 3060 ti > 3060, 6700xt > 6700, etc.
my almost 10 year old rx 570 could handle a TV+monitor setup so a 6600 will have zero issues. assuming 60hz and 1080p you will be fine.

gpu util went from like 30%@ 1080p/75hz w/maxed settings to 80% util@ 1440p/240hz w/max settings
if you are maxing out everything, prob doesnt hurt to watercool. i also like OCing for timespy bragging rights, so watercooling makes sense for me
30% util was like 40-45c, 80% a little higher at 50-60c. hardcore OCed shit gets HOT, 70c+. my pump shut down one time so i watch the temps now when OCing

i was such a tech dork when i was your age, spending way more money in pre-biden 2004 dollars.
now i just want to hold on to what i have and avoid learning anything new, or fiddling with tech bullshit.
someday you will be me.

the problem is pretty much any new game that's crossplatform has a shitty pc port so a 3050 or anything similar isn't going to cut it. you could probably play valorant or something on one but not anything new
i'd say either give up on PC Games and just buy whatever is cheap to keep your computer running, or get a 4070super ($600) or 4080s ($1000). there's not much point to anything in between
