Which card to upgrade?

There's not that much difference between a 4060 and a 6750 XT. 4070 is a bigger jump, but it is also around £200 more than a 4060 for a non-Super (£450).

Can you not give it a try first? I think you'll find the 4060 is a decent upgrade on a RX 580 (TPU's GPU database has it as 113% faster).


Fingers crossed!

That's definitely the sensible option. My wallet will thank me.

Update: ended up taking the PC to the local PC shop and they are sorting it. Apparently a few driver issues and the bios flash I did, didn't quite work.

I also have a corsair 850W PSU... So... Thinking I might return the 4060 for something a bit beefier. Guess it'd be between 6750xt and 4070?

You can get the

Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon™ RX 7700 XT Gaming OC for £315 would better than the 6750xt.​

Good choice, especially if you do get a more powerful card.

Costs a few quid, but massive peace of mind to know that your expensive hardware has good quality powering it. You're set for years with that unit.

There's an absolute whopper on Tom's Hardware who says 850w Corsair units are mediocre but he's talking through his arse. He likes to pimp Seasonic units, but there is NO mediocre quality 850w Corsair power supply these days. He's a total biff, I'll take him on one of these days.

Hopefully the shop get you back up and running soon and you can start to enjoy your upgrades :)

Cheers. Hopefully there's a bit of life in the PC yet and not a versed to upgrading the mob/ processor / ram and GPU in a few years if I'm still gaming.

Looking forward to slaying demons, hopefully tomorrow.

Update: Have been playing lots of Doom Eternal and it is running brilliantly - getting over 150 FPS with ultra-nightmare and its now pretty quiet, except for the wailing of demons as I gib them!

Thanks everyone for the help.

Was that with the original 4060?
