Looking to get a budget build done in the next few days. But can't quite make up my mind when it comes to selecting the GPU.

The 3060 is available at ~24k whereas the 6650xt is costing around 23k. The 3060 has more vram but the 6650xt is faster and should perform better with the ryzen 5 5600 I'm going with. Hence, the dilemma.

The outlier options include the rx 6700 10gb (available at ~27k), 6700xt (32k) and 7600 (25.5k).

Immediate use case is gaming at 1080p. May or may not switch to 1440p depending on the Gpu and prices down the line. I generally stick with the system for well over 5 years, so looking for a card that can handle games at mid settings down the line at worst.

Advice and personal experience will be greatly appreciated.
 
6700xt has the same vram as 3060 and performs better at 1080p and 1440p, but costs more. if you plan on using the same pc for 5 years then the best gpu to get is the 6700xt if you can afford it.
 
as said 6700xt, however amd is dropping a "7600xt" with expected 12gb vram and all the new jazz that comes with new gen gpus. if you want to wait they might release it in december according to leaks.

RX 6700 XT can be had for ~21k if you're open to used options. I would recommend that.

Of course, finding a good deal would be a bit of a chore, but you get a higher-tier card with more VRAM, which will increase the longevity of the GPU.

All the best with your search, OP!

If ur budget cant stretch upto a 6700xt ,i would recommend getting a 6700(10gb) instead.
I have been using it since 5 months.
Its very power efficient 100-125W.
Easily max out textures in 1080p amd perf wise much better than 3060 and on avg 5-7 percent lowwer than 3060ti.
Given i did get it at a lucrative price of 20.8k

did you get 6700 in Flipkart BBD sale or second hand ??
is it's TDP like 6600 or 6600 XT?

Way before bbd.
Its official draw is 175W.
The card comes overclocked already,i normally run at 100mhz less and at 0.8V ,as such get much less power draw.
120-125 is the max under games like cyberpunk amd the perf hit is 2 percent at worse.
Under games like spiderman, armoured core its sub 100w ,mostly in 80-90 region.

What software do you use? Afterburner?
