I just need some suggestions

#

i would really suggest a CPU/Mobo upgrade before GPU

#

otherwise, 1650 super

Also what to pair with i7 6700?

#

The same?

older Intel CPUs suck nowadays

1650 or 3050

never buy a 3050

#

with dlss sure, but without dlss, its raster perf is about 20% worse

#

3050 is much closer to 1070/980ti

#

RX6600xt on the other hand, is faster than the 1080ti in raster

#

or if you can get a 3060ti for cheap, that's faster than even a 2080

#

3050 is garbage

#

go for a 6600 non XT

#

can get them for right around ~$200, maybe even less. super sweet spot for a CPU like that

#

@forest hawk

#

$179

6600, amd driver overhead make the bottle neck slightly better

I think that would get bottlenecked by the i5-6500

#

And? Just get it if its like 8-10 more, you can always upgrade cpu down the road
