I just recently built a pc myself which I’m super excited and proud of!! With subnautica 2 releasing today, some questions arose in my mind: what if my GPU cant handle it? Right now i have a
GTX 1080 Ti on a msi pro b550 vc-wifi MOBO And a ryzen 5500. What GPU can i realistically aim for that wont murder my bank account but still be able to hold up in coming games?

Upgrade you CPU. A 5600x or 5800x & then get a 3070ti

The 1080 Ti is still pretty solid for 1080p gaming, even today. For a budget upgrade that won't bottleneck your Ryzen 5500, the RX 6600 is around $200 and handles most modern games well. If you can stretch to $250-280, the RX 7600 or RTX 4060 are great options - the 4060 gives you DLSS 3 frame gen which helps a lot in newer titles. Your B550 board and Ryzen 5500 will handle any of these just fine, so no need to upgrade the whole system.

Im not telling him to get anything just telling him the possible options he could get for respective resolutions. A 3080 is viable, but i wouldnt buy a 30 series gpu which is approaching 6 years of age and has worse dlss 4.5 scaling, also considering how hot gddr6x memory was and it went through a mining boom, you are getting a below average deal even for 300$. If u want 3080 performance just get a 9060xt and OC it.

This might be a dumb question but what does the b580 mean?
