Set resolution and games
1080p 60 FPS and e-sports: an RTX 5060 or RX 9060 XT is often enough today. 1440p or ray tracing: look at RTX 5070 class or higher. Note 2–3 games you play and check their pages.
Practical criteria using the Components comparator — verified specs, not opinion without data.
Compare specific models
At /comparar/gpu pick two slugs — e.g. rtx-5060 vs rtx-4060 or rx-9060-xt vs rtx-5060. You get spec tables, performance charts and real catalog percentage gaps.
Do not look at VRAM alone: TDP, architecture and upscaling (DLSS, FSR) matter in new releases.
Balance with CPU
A strong GPU with an old CPU can cap FPS. After picking a card, open /comparar/cpu and ensure your processor is not the bottleneck (Ryzen 5 5600 / Core i5-12400F are solid bases in 2026).
