Whats your mobo? Likely can upgrade to 12400F @RM 500 and your balance 2.5k can go towards RX 7600XT 16GB @RM 1.8k / 7700XT @RM2.4k

Nvidia sux ass for low end.
Arc sux ballz for low end.

Made a mistake, I now see yours is 10th Gen i3. If you need to move up its to i5 10400, 10500, 10600. These either are pricey still new (I saw 1 at RM 700) or else go for used.

You might see another round of 7800 XT 16GB around RM2k after 8pm. Don't pay for that insanely overpriced 7600 XT. Even 6700 XT 12Gb at RM1.8k will laugh at it.

That is a very good deal indeed, but Im quoting street prices that you would regularly get because deals are YMMV. Like someone could knockoff RM 1k on 4070TIS which is a better deal if you can grab one.
6700XT is a very good value card... if you can get one new. Otherwise no point talking about past great deals (like a $1600 4090), we should be giving options to people that they can buy today any day.

Wow you managed to find a new one, but the prices LOL, no wonder its still available. I can see why its an Asus after all. For that same money I can get its replacement, 7700XT so yeah that... is bad value even for a 6700XT.

But the 7800xt, good find thumbsup.gif

6700xt have been phased out of our market quite some time ago, what you seen here by Tristan is leftover stocks which frankly is overpriced as I can get the newer 7700xt for the same $$$. So imho its either 7700xt or 7800xt. PSU at least 750W GOLD, ada Cybernetics even better.
