Upgrade from my rx590

[inflames]

So I have been wanting to upgrade my GPU for sometime, last year I even considered buying a intel Arc770. After a recommendation from a friend, but after talking to people on here sounded like a potential headache. So with BF6 about to drop and a recent cash injection from redundancy going to treat myself finally.

Currently setup:
Motherboard Asrock B450 ITX
CPU Ryzen 5 2600
CPU cooler Cryorig H7 Cooler
GPU RX590
Ram 16GB

I have a Ryzen 5 5600 ready to upgrade my CPU. So I am currently thinking about buying a RX 7800xt or saving a bit a 7600. Or joining team green and going for a 4070. Would like to keep under £450 but can be a little flexible for the right GPU.

At your budget I'd likely go for a 9060XT 16GB. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/xfx-...-pci-express-graphics-card-gra-xfx-05433.html
Then I'd also consider your RAM and an upgrade to 32GB with a 3600MHz 2x16GB kit. Then you'd be set.

Oh that’s an interesting prospect. I already plan to build a another PC out of my remaining parts for my daughters school work and some light gaming.

You're a bit behind the times there. I wouldn't bother with RDNA3 anymore unless the price is really good. 9060 XT 16GB is the card to buy, or a 9070 if you can stretch.

Guess I am, I haven’t really kept an eye on all the new GPUs for awhile now.

Well Iv purchased a rx9060XT, half decent GPU for the price point.

16GB I hope?

Of course….

I was very pleased when my new GPU arrived during the week. Have just tried to install it, I knew it would be a tight fit with my Phatek case, but it is so tight I am sure that the GPU won’t get enough air. We are talking about 1mm gap between the plate separating the power supply and the GPU. So will have to wait until I get a new case too.

So i finally installed my GPU this weekend. Had trouble shooting and resolved all but 1. All games running fine no issues, apart from battlefield 2042, it’s unplayable. Had no issues with my RX590 before hand and I was playing that a lot recently.
Reading online some people are having similar issues specifically those with AMD systems.

Updated bios? Updated chipset drivers?

Yep, I spent a lot of time on trying resolve it today. Iv now uninstalled 2042, with the intention of reinstalling it and seeing if that would work? But decided to install BF5 as I haven’t played that for ages now.

I managed to resolve it tonight.

Good to hear! What was it?

Completely my fault, looks like in the bios I had enabled resize bar but not 4G decoding or I hadn’t saved it…. Well lesson learned. Check and double check noticed straight away tonight. So having fresh eyes on it today done the trick.
