During the pandemic, I rebuilt my computer but with GPU prices being insanely inflated, I decided to limp along with my old GPU (a GeForce GTX 760). The issue is that I have a 4k monitor and my current card can barely handle my desktop, never mind a game.

I have heard that prices are coming back down to a sane level, so I am looking for part suggestions. I am not looking to play new games or ultra high settings, but I would want to at least be able to handle older/indie games, on medium settings, at a steady 30 FPS.

What's your budget? For $300, you can get an RX 6750 XT. It can handle 4k decently well (I've only tried it with Quantum Break) and has a performance about a little better than an RTX 3070 Ti. For sure there still aren't many great picks below $100 that aren't about 6 or 7 years old.
