Between €320 and €650, the gaming graphics card market splits between mid-range AMD and Nvidia GPUs, with real differences in VRAM, cooling, and — above all — whether the price you see today is the normal price or a temporarily inflated one.

From 8 to 16GB of VRAM, plus a high-end option

Four of the eight run 8GB of VRAM (ASUS Prime RTX 5060, MSI Shadow 2X, Sapphire Pulse RX 7600, and ASUS Dual RX 7600 EVO) — plenty for 1080p and most 1440p gaming today. Three stick with the same AMD RX 9060 XT GPU at 16GB (Gigabyte, ASRock, and ASUS Radeon), giving more headroom for the years ahead. And if your budget allows it, the GIGABYTE RTX 5070 WINDFORCE with 12GB GDDR7 is the only high-end option in this comparison, built for anyone who wants to push 1440p at max settings or start looking at 4K.
