I finally bit the bullet and upgraded my graphics card from a RX 590 to a RX 6750 XT, and holy shit is there a big noticeable difference. I've been replaying some games and its almost like playing it for the first time. It just feels so different and so much more details to notice. I thought I was fine on the 590 and that I really wouldn't see much difference, but the 6750 xt is running Red Dead Redemption 2 on ultra and still has plenty to spare. My room is also not increasing in temperature due to the 590 maxing out the entire time trying to play RDR2 on medium/low settings.

Now I just need to upgrade my monitor next to get even more out of this.

6700/6800 XT are very fine cards. Go for OLED on the monitor if you can

Personally I'm waiting for qd-oled to get more affordable. I don't want to spend the big bucks on a monitor that will eventually get worse over time due to burn in.
