Gfx card packed up in i5-2500k system, best value replacement?

[Puzzled]

Hi, got an old system running an i5-2500k, 8GB Ram and a GTX670. The card has now packed up so looking for a cheap second hand replacement that could offer a bit more performance although I know the rest of the system will limit that.

Was looking at a gtx 1060 as they seem to go for around £70 second hand but any recommendations for better value. The current one just about plays fortnite smoothly but if I can improve it a bit that would be a nice bonus.

Thanks

I think the GTX1060 is a good shout.

Other cards to look out for are the GTX1650/Super, RX590/80 or RX570 though I can't recall for sure what plays better with Fortnite (Nvidia, I think).

Thanks, don't mind spending a little more but I'm not sure if it will even make the most out of the 1060.

I had a i5-2500k system with a GTX180 up to about a year ago and it ran all modern games at high or ultra settings with no problem, not overclocked either

Gtx 1060 is a great shout.. Nice little card with its 6gb Vram also... Nice jump up from the 670

Just make sure you get the 6GB version, it has more cuda cores (and vRam obviously, will be a solid 1080p option).

It's been brilliant value for money, been passed along a few people now but keeps doing what I need from it.

Will keep an eye out for some good second hand buys, no rush so will see what comes up on MM.
