budget was like 850

Im no expert by any means but I think you might want like cl30 ram instead of cl36

The 8GB variant of 9060xt is okay but the 16GB version will perform much better in most titles. Unless you really know what you are doing and are targeting very specific titles, you may want to upgrade to https://pcpartpicker.com/product/w2WmP6/sapphire-pulse-radeon-rx-9060-xt-16-gb-video-card-11350-03-20g

bought the cpu the cpu cooler and storage already btw so no changing that

[empty wing]

it's 2 expensive 😔

[nocturne isle]

😦

budgets do be budgets.

[wanton oak]

Have you considered looking used

Not for a 9060xt but like

6000 or 7000 series amd cards

[empty wing]

aren't used parts like

bad

low quality and probably ruined

[nocturne isle]

not necessarily. you need to be careful about not buying something that says 'parts only' or 'non working'

[wanton oak]

Definitely not, I bought a GTX 1080ti used for $50 and its almost 10 years old, Im still using it now and bought it less than a year ago

My first PC was entirely used parts and I built it entirely for less than $150

Again less than a year ago

I built that for like $130ish? Entirely used parts

Look at Jawa.gg for a used gpu

[empty wing]

wtf it looks so cool

[nocturne isle]

I'm not sure I'd choose a 1080 over a 9060 8GB card but there may be some bargains to be found if you look. In the same price range of 9060 you can get a much more capable used card. I'm seeing a few working 3080ti on ebay for around $180 current bid

[wanton oak]

Definitely dont get a 1080l lol, I was just using it as an example

[nocturne isle]

also - scrapyard wars for inspiration 😄

[wanton oak]

Id say look at used 6000 and 7000 series AMD cards

Specifically ones with more than 12gb vram

12 or more

[spare walrus]

what is your budget?

also i am not sure if a cpu cooler is neccesary for this

[nocturne isle]

I can guarantee a cpu cooler is necessary for a cpu 🙂

[spare walrus]

my mistake

[nocturne isle]

LOL

[spare walrus]

does jawa ship to EU?

[wanton oak]

I think he means aftermarket vs OE cooler, but idk if that cpu comes with an OE cooler

[wanton oak]

@empty wing

[nocturne isle]

9600X does not include in-box cooler

[wanton oak]

Well then its very necessary lmao

[nocturne isle]

There are some CPUs that do include them, though, so it is something to be mindful of. If stepping down to Ryzen 9600 (no X) there is a cooler in box that is competent. However I'm not sure they are still actually making them? bonkers pricing on all of these if I go looking. Wild. https://www.amd.com/en/products/processors/ecosystem/cpu-cooler-solutions.html Ryzen 7 5700 is actually a really solid deal but it's for AM4 platform and that limits future upgrades. It probably makes more sense to spend more on am5 platform and upgrade GPU later.
