The author of the YouTube channel "Techno-Grail" reviewed the video card market in January 2025, highlighting the best models for assembling a PC in different price categories. The expert took into account current prices for both new devices and models from the secondary market.

Ultra-budget segment (up to $ 150)

For users with a limited budget, the blogger recommends paying attention to:

• Intel Arc A380 is an affordable model for which you will have to pay up to $ 150, and the price will depend on where you live.
• Used AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT 6 GB or Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super / 1660 Ti 6 GB, which have good performance for gaming in Full HD.

Mid-range ($200-$250)

This category includes:

• Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 6GB and Intel Arc A750 — affordable options on the new video card market.
• On the secondary market, for this money, you can find more powerful models:
  • AMD Radeon RX 6600 8GB and RX 6600 XT.
  • Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB, which supports games at 1440p.

If your budget allows, for $200-$250, the blogger recommends used AMD RX 6700 XT 12GB or RX 6750 GRE 12GB — a great choice for gamers who want to play at high settings.

Segment up to $360

Users with a budget of about $360 can choose between:

• AMD RX 7600 or Nvidia RTX 4060 - the new RTX 4060 demonstrates higher performance in this price category.
• On the secondary market for a similar amount, you can find more powerful AMD RX 6800 or RX 6800 XT, which are ideal for gaming in 1440p or even 4K.

Flagship segment

The expert noted that buying the flagship Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 is not justified at the moment. The release of a new generation of video cards is expected on January 30, which can offer a better price-performance ratio.

Conclusion

The choice of a video card depends on your tasks and budget. It is important to consider not only the specifications and current prices, but also the possibilities of the secondary market, which sometimes allows you to purchase a more powerful device for the same money.
