GPUs under $200 that don't suck. 

Thanks for watching 🙂 & thanks AliExpress for sponsoring! ► Use code "ALLONAE" for $25 off orders over $100 from Nov 11 through Nov 17 ► MLLSE RX 580 8G, $59:s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mrCcodq ► ELSA RX 5700XT, $137 with code: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mLy4kKg ► SOYO RTX 2060 Super 8GB, $131 with code: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mMnQUOu ► More budget deals on AliExpress Singles' day: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mN33lcC ► The honorable mention is the SOYO RX 6600M 8GB.

There should be an honorable mention for the RX 5700 non-XT... it can save a few bucks, by shaving a few cores... but also noticably runs at a much lower TDP.

It's crazy what kind of options exist today for lower budget builds now. I actually love it.

Oz thank you so much for this video. One of my closest friends has an aging PC but he also has a growing family and not alot of spare income to spend on a new GPU. This Christmas I'm gonna hook him up with a nice upgrade and this video helped to make that decision. Happy Holidays my guy

Just picked up a rx 5700 for $105 from aliexpress paired it with ryzen 5 3600 I'm very happy with the performance 😊

All these years later as a builder and i still freaking LOVE these videos. Budget builders for life!

Clearly an rx6600 regular non xt. They Can be found under 150 euros lately. And not only they pack quite some punch for 1080p, they also support most recent tech including mesh shaders, and if those begin to be popular as many studio seem to believe. You will be more than happy to have it. Cherry on top, even at full load in Alan wake 2 the card stay under 100w

Really appreciated noting the power draw. Also liked the playful background stuff :) Very useful, thank you

DUDE. I was just looking at upgrading from my GTX960 and saw RX 580s on Amazon for 129 thinking that was a good deal. You literally saved me like 70 bucks. THANK YOU. I needed a PCIE 3.0 card for my old rig because I don't feel like upgrading the whole board, but I really didn't want to spend too much.

5700 xt is a 1080p beast. I had it for entry level 1440p and just switched to a 6800 xt, but the 5700 xt got my foot in the door. I'm now one of those 1440p people.

Great video! RX5700XT would be a top pick for me - had no idea they had dipped to these prices... finally. Still I want to see what you can do with the 580!

The RX 400 and later renamed 500 series cards have aged surprisingly well. The drivers have seemed to get better compared to similar vintage GTX cards. What would have competed with the RX 580 8 GB at launch at the msrp... 1060 6 GB? Ali Express has a Sapphire Vega 56 for $117 (edit- it's used). That's an interesting buy. But you need to tune them properly. They are weird cards.

The 2060 Super is an amazing card for the money. Until recently, I was using it in my daily driver and I never encountered a single game that I couldn't play at 1440p Medium settings. The only reason I upgraded (and this is relevant to the video) is I was able to snag an RX7600 for $185 (open box at Micro Center.) And while I'm happy enough with the performance bump, it's not a mind blowing difference. If you can find it open box like I did, the 7600 is an excellent competitor with these cards mentioned, but if not, just get a 2060 Super. You won't be disappointed with its value. EDIT: In case anyone was looking, the specific card I got was the Powercolor Fighter RX7600. The Micro Center by me has another one also under $200, so I assume if there's a micro center near you, this is just the price they put on those when they're open-box. Keep your eyes peeled!

I am using a 500 W PSU for a RX6700XT and a Ryzen 5600 without any issues. Even before when I was using a Vega 56 I never had problems with powering the machine. Great video 😊

Can’t wait to see the builds from all the gpu you got 👀😁

Thanks for the always relaxing videos Oz. Great info for everyone wanting to save monies. I think I've seen others mention it but the 6600 or 6600m are cards people should be considering too.

I love that the second card you got is ELSA branded. Sure it's not the same ELSA from before but as someone who built computers in the late 90s, early 2000s, it's a special memory. If you don't know why, their drivers were a lot more stable and had special features not found in NVidia ones vaguely in the pre-Geforce era. And you could actually use them on any NVidia GPUs. Plus the cards had a super stable pixel clock and excellent output quality for high refresh rate gaming on high-end Diamondtron and Trinitron CRT monitors of the day, which was sort of rare when buying an NVidia card, though ATI and Matrox cards have all been OK, but they had other drawbacks making them sort of useless. My favourite only semi-useful card is for sure 3DLabs Permedia 2 though. SOYO of your third card is also an ancient brand, but not a particularly exciting one. Of course also not the same company that it used to be. 2060Super are sort of hot but yeah the feature set is EXCELLENT and the performance is fine for everything you'd like to throw at it so far. I got one as well, just a used one that needed some care. RX5000 series has bad availability in my region and i am not happy with the feature set, and anything older gen is plain obsolete, which is to say, near $70 that you paid you can't do much better than that rx580, but this does come with limitations.

This came at such a perfect time! I just built a new to me PC with a r5 3600 and I still had my GTX 1650 and was looking for an upgrade! I don't delve into the ali express world of computer hardware often, so thanks to you I just grabbed a 5700xt and I'm looking forward to it so much!!!

RX6600 family of cards are good for low energy consumption, oh 😀🌻. I've been using a 2060S for 3.5 years and I don't feel the need to change it yet. The card you buy comes down to how long you want it use it, all GCN, Polaris etc are moving to legacy driver status and I think RDNA is following due to it's lack of 12U features, RTX20 series still has a while before that happens.

Good to see you man, you are inspirational :)

I've got an R5 7600 paired with a refurbished eBay Sapphire Rx 5700 XT that was $130 shipped. Both CPU and gfx card undervolted. Getting over 100+ FPS on AAA games at ultra settings 1080p. I also have a backup RX 580 8gb I got refurbished for $60 shipped, haven't used yet.

Thanks for your video and your humour !! Keep it this way. Hello from Paris.

I got a 5700XT, not disappointed, Works amazingly for pretty much any game at 1080p.

I have had an Rx580 since I bought it for $80 right before the pandemic. Currently running Diablo 4 on it with no issues.

Suprised how well the RX 5700XT still performs, especially in relation to the RTX 2060.

Very interesting to see the ELSA brand still hanging around, brings me souvenirs from the late 90s :)

never thought id be considering an aliexpress build. thanks!

I was able to get the 6600M for 110 bucks with your discount code. Thank you, and happy holidays!

I’ve bought 3 different 5700 xts from AliExpress and one of them was the Elsa model. They actually never disappoint. Amazing how the 5700 xt is still a great card in 2023

Great video dude! I recently picked up an rx 7600 for 180 on the used market, great deals are out there, patience and persistences is key v:

I love the new mic you're using! Do you have it listed anywhere? I'd definitely look into getting one myself

I recently purchased an RX 5600XT for under $200 CDN delivered and it is no slouch either. For whatever reason probably because it was the flagship the 5700XT goes for way more here. I am upgrading from an RX 570 so this is definitely a step up.

nice vid man keep it up

Picked up a Red devil 5700xt a couple of months ago and Its the most beautiful card I've owned thus far. Really great option for games on a budget.

Just bought an RX 6600 for $139, extremely pleased. Upgraded from a 1060 3gb

Good Explaination Oz, i sure would love a 5700xt, but you know, most people are struggling, maybe some day. keep up the great work Ozzie

If your playing old titles (like 2 years or older), and/or don't care that the chip is technically EOL (just security updates only) then a 580 is great for $60. However for newer titles it's best to stick to a 5700 at around 108 (non XT) or 6600 for around 120-130. Thanks to games like Allen Wake 2 and games that run on Unreal Engine 5 even mid range 5000/6000 Radeon cards are going to struggle at 1080p nowadays.

G'day Oz, Not only are these 3 great 1080p GPU choices, I also like the build ideas you offered for each of the GPUs too. The Antec NX200M is a great case for the $. We are currently at $1USD - $1.60AUD exchange + 10%GST but it is funny how price comparisons can vary depending on what the item is, like current CPUs & GPUs are normally 2x $USD but then you get other items like the Antec NX200M $55USD vs $59AUD.

I had a XFX Thicc triple fan 5700XT, I loved it but it died after just over two years, XFXs 3 year warranty was US only...very disappointed, upgraded to an ASUS 6650XT and im very happy, I only play CoD BO3 custom maps and some light games, so very happy

The 5700XT 8GB by Gigabyte has served me well. I updated to a 3060 12GB ASUS TUF when I saw it for a steal at $250. I think I’m going to build another budget PC with the 5700XT.

Your Grandma is so cool! Grandma got game.... 😂 Thanks for going over these cards. 😊

I got a used GTX 1660ti for 100€ (107$) for my Ryzen3 2200G as an upgrade. (6GB, GDDR6) I wanted an older PCIe Gen3 card with a moderate TDP... and I just drove 20 miles to pick em up.

I think if you want to buy something new, arc 750 is worth mentioning. Great performence in resonable price.

Please do it 😊 need those relaxed anxiety killer ones👌🏼

Not sure if the higher temps are due to subpar cooling or the fact that these are all probably repainted old mining cards, but if it works and it's staying below 85c, not much to worry about. If you can get a solid 2-5 years out of this stuff for $80-200, I say that's gaming budget well spent.

😀 always loved the 580 for budget builds :)

spaghetti

AliExpress RX6600M Paired with my 10yr old AMD FX8530. Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 on ultra, MW medium More than happy with it

Is it possible to use my GPU to 100% of it's capacity on a daily basis and expect to have it last 5+ years with proper maintenance?

Rebar has been available for a while now - added bonus, it works with all cards, not just Arc.

😃😃 love the builds

Hello Mr.Oz I adore your calm, soothing videos. Could you show us how to make a budget PC to do 3D modeling? Thanks!

The shirt in the beginning with the ae86 on it is sick. Nice shirt

😃😔🌻 Great video, I was just talking with a friend about the Soyo 2060 Super card just yesterday, so it's great to see you putting it through its paces along with your other two options. Call me greedy but I'd love to see you do all three of the builds you mentioned, they all sound good to me.

Nice Video. Please what can you say about lower versions of these brands like rx 550 4gb, e.t.c. Are they durable?

Can you make a list of good gpu's that don't require external power for gpu's

LMAOO the wig bobbing and “omg shes crackes” did it for me

Could any of this be capable of running Dayz? I am looking for my first graphics card and it's a confusing journey often full of "how come this crap costs more than a steam deck?" I had on my eyes this card, don't know if you guys can recommend it better than the video choices or reverse: gtx 1070 g1

hey oz i was checking out ur builds and was looking at the 500 dollar build u did a couple months ago but i saw it was for 1080p gaming. I was wondering what a budget 1440 p build could be that could get above 200 fps/150 fps during like really action filled stuff. Im tryna run fort, r6, overwatch 2, rl, every assasins creed game,yk. Its my first build and i wanna be able to play on med to high settings. My friend told me a 3060 ti is the best but i heard that theres raedon cards that do better but i heard Nvidia got better drivers or sum. Also if you respond can u also tell me what cpu to use w it for the least amnt of bottleneck. my budget is abt 500 bucks for the cpu to gpu combo.

Any budget GPUs good for VR games? Mu budget is more like 300-400$

i remember i got my 1660 super this summer for 70 bucks. works like a charm

My working class pc guys hero. Thank you thank you thank you for focusing on neat thing to do on a budget. I think theres this view that pc gamers are well to do because pc are more expensive but its just always been pc based even when broke lol.

Just want to say guys, these are all great options. Since the 580 is likely going by by soon, the RX 5500xt is also a great option and is currently pretty cheap. I used it with an i3 12100f for a few months while I was saving up for my 12600k and a now saving for a 4070 or 7800xt. The RX 5500xt and 12100f are now awaiting a new home in a spare rig I will keep at my mom's house for when I travel home to visit.

great video btw i was wondering if you could test soyo rx 5700xt

Don't forget that that both the R5 3600 CPU and the RX 5700 XT GPU can be undervolted, saving power while often INCREASING performance.

I have a AMD Radeon 6500 XT looking to upgrade to a better GPU. Do you have any suggestions for GPUS under $300 that would be better than that? Right now I have intel I7 12th gen 127000k, 32gb ram. Gotham Knights I can get almost 200 fps a little above 1080pm medium and high settings most games really a little over 1080p but starfield is lagging even at medium

You forgot the aliexpress 6600m. It has ray tracing (similar to 2060super). Lower power consumption. Its current generation so longer driver support (can use AMD drivers). Its even cheaper than either the 5700xt and 2060s.

Idk if he said this but would these pcs be good not only for playing games but also streaming them or recording them? Let’s throw in editing as well. ❤

LOVE YOU, MY MAN!! I'M SUBBING AFTER WATCHING YOUR MULTITASKING VIDEOS. OMG YOU MUST DO MORE OF THEM!!! everyone else is too scared of the variability and whatever else Steve from GN was whining about. maybe if he stopped playing with his hair he could do some actual work and provide regular multitasking benchmarks everytime. but you know he won't cause he and the HUB/Techspot guys are all primadonnas who won't get their hands dirty.

Personally, the best new GPU I have found in the past is the Intel Arc A580. If you don't mind needing ReBar, it's a fantastic CPU. It performs like or even better than an RX 6600 for a decent amount cheaper at $180 compared to $190-$200.

FYI-Trying to us AE for the first time and I can't use the $25 coupon code b/c there's a $1.99 free shipping code and I can't remove it. Any suggestions?

5700xt generally perfroms closer to an rtx 2070 super and tends to age better in 1440p, performing just a bit faster than the rtx 3060, an awesome card for sure!

great content, but where is your shirt from? I’m in love with it but can’t find it anywhere

I have a 3700x and a 5700XT with good ram (ripjaws kit) and a good x570 mobo yet average ~230 fps on low settings valorant, is that expected? I even undervolt my 5700xt and make the fan speeds better for performance idrc about the noise

“Grandmas hearing aids” 😂😂 we want all the builds Oz

1080 and 1070 used can be found for about 100 so definitely something to look at

Can't believe i bought an rx580 for less than $200 about 5 years ago and its still on this list

Amazing video!!!

For some reason, this is the video that got through to me, that it would be good to lower my standards. I already knew you could make incredibly solid builds for as low as $660 (12100f, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd, cheap 600w psu, 7600, 50 dollar case), but this vid did show me, lower isn't explicitly worse. I already can't run 1440p (monitor literally can't), so what do I care for 1440p? I only have a 165Hz monitor, so what do I care for insane frame-rates. A 7600 could max me out, but a 6650 or 6600, or 5700xt would get damn close and cost an arm and leg less. Unless I'm willing to pump up to more vram, it really doesn't matter what I get.

I like the 5700 and maybe you could try what scattervolt said and flashed it with 5700 xt bios

You think I should cancel the order of the 2 fan 5700 xt for the 3 fan? also I could use the code and save $40 and get it for almost under $100

as someone who owns a 2060 KO, is it the same as a 2060 super or less than that? I know I should know, but I don't.

Here’s my obligatory 2060 Super praise comment… I can personally vouch for this card, it’s performance is incredible for the price. I distinctly recall Forza Horizon 5 @ 1440p High preset running at 60FPS… withOUT DLSS. Only replaced it because I wanted high refresh rate, high resolution performance at ultra settings.

i have a really old pc that my dad gave me and im trying to upgrade it is it fine if i buy a gpu now and wait untill i have money for a cpu + mobo or should i buy them all together

Just bought a new and sealed RTX 3070 for $130 and I can safely say it does NOT suck

5700xt is great value for performance but if more games needs mesh shaders its gonna have restrictions. I think this is a point budget build youtubers should point out or update. Saying it is console killer but on console you can run all games until the end of the generation.

there's always good deals out there I got my rtx 2070 for $100 + shipping, and it only needed repasting

I'm running an RX 5600 XT, Ryzen7 3700 and 32GB of RAM. Do you think it's worth it to upgrade to 2060 or RX 5700 XT? Thanks for any help. God bless and Jesus loves you.

Hey Oz will you ever make videos about CRT Monitors?

would love to see the 5700XT Build

As a person who overpaid for a gtx 1650 (it was $350 dollars in 2021) Im just happy there are actually options now so people don’t have to make the same mistake as I did.

how do you upgrade a HP with a proprietary MB and the smallest PS have ever seen in a mid-sized case, it has a Ryzen 5 5600G

I have a GTX 1080ti, I got it one eBay for 193 USD after tax. used but DEFFENTLY worth It.

Don't forget you can often ask a little less if buying locally. People will take some less money if it's convenient cash in hand.

Ozzie how do you get those FPS numbers in Val? My 3060ti+5600x only get ~250

GREAT VIDEO!

Sad thing is i would not be recommending the rx 570/580 anymore because AMD will not be updating game drivers for them anymore only security updates.

rx 5700xt seams good but for me and many others a lot of black screen crashing, freezing , buggy drivers and so many driver timeouts. it sadly is like playing Russian rullet

Would u recommend buying a cpu off Ali express ?

Got an msi rx580 8gb for 60 bucks for my first build can’t wait
