What gpu would you recommend for around 300€

Looking for gpu recommendations, my budget is around 300€, new or used doesn't matter. I mostly game on 1080p. I found a 6750 xt 12 gb in good shape for 280€ used so wondering if thats a good deal. Will probably change the PSU as well.
Current specs are:
Ryzen 5 5600x
RX 570 4GB
A520M S2H
500W PSU
256 GB SSD
1 TB HDD

A B580, 9060XT, or RTX5060. Don't get the older cards you don't get the best upscaling.

I'm pretty sure I'm taking a 3080 at a $100 discount and DLSS 4.5 at reduced efficiency rather than a 9060 XT

Cool, 1. that uses twice as much power and over a full year of gaming that's for some 50-100€ more per year. 2. His PSU has only 500W. 3. We don't even know if a 3080 fits in his case.

Yes, he's already planning on upgrading his PSU, that's an inevitability in the future regardless if it's now or during next changes.
50-100€ more electricity usage per year seems extremely high, if that is the case then you're absolutely right

A B580 is around 330€ here, and a 9060 xt new with 16 gigs is over 440€

If you can't afford 30€ over then don't upgrade. It's just my opinion. If you really want better performance get any of these cards which I told you even 8GB - if you plan to stay on 1080p.

I didnt say i couldn't afford it lmao, I'm just saying is it worth it, I found a new B580 for 330€

One year ago, the B580 really wasn't worth buying, but now Intel has released many new drivers that support older CPUs quite well. If you choose the B580, you should ask the seller carefully whether your motherboard supports it. From what I know, the motherboard needs to have ReBAR support to properly run the B580. Since you're using the A520M, you’ll need to update the BIOS — so make sure to check this thoroughly. The RX 9060 XT and RTX 5060 are excellent, but their prices are quite a bit higher compared to the B580.

Used is always better value, get a used 3080 to shit on every other card

I think it's worth it. If you wanna check benchmarks to compare those 3 cards just get on YouTube. Personally for 1080p id go with the 8GB 5060 or 9060xt. because I've seen some hassle with the Intel drivers but just check Benchmarks.

Rx 6750xt is good gpu for 1080p but you will need to change psu because 500w will not be enough.

Yep you should get a nice psu and price seems fair. Of course that heavily depends on your location too. Try to bargain and look for a cheaper one. Maybe you can get a 1440p monitor since that combo can definitely handle that.
