I think I am going to pick up a temporary graphics card until the GPU situation settles down. What would people recommend? I am looking at a 5600xt at the moment as it seems reasonably priced.
 
Will I'll be running at 1440p and 144hz but anything over that really. It doesn't need to be fantastic as I intend to get a new gpu when stocks get better. Although GPUs are still expensive regardless. They are getting marked up all the time.
 
1660 super or ti aren’t bad value, otherwise something second hand from someone who’s just received their new card. See how the 25th goes first though.

If you have it, use it.
The 5600xt is a ture power house at 1080p
1440p it can hold ita own but on mid settings, your won't be getting 144hz

My monitor is 1440p at 100hz. I order a 5600xt because my vega died. I thought the 5600xt would just be a put me on card but tbf I'm happy with it.
I get well over 60fps average on good settings

Yeah that would be fine though. The new monitor is more of a future thing for when I can get a new gpu. That sounds like it may be the way to go.
