gollark: If you want something slightly better than your current GPU, there's the RX 580, which is quite cheap, and yes the naming schemes are stupid.
gollark: Performance comparable.
gollark: The Vega 56 is somewhat lower-end than the 64, and the Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti is I think comparable to that (probably worth checking out benchmarks for the specific games you play), but turns out to be a lot cheaper in Australia.
gollark: I think the Radeon RX 5700 (NOT the much older 5700 series HD ones) is *fairly* perf-comparable to the Vega 64, and they seem to be similar prices in Australia.
gollark: I think the AMD Vega cards have been replaced by the Navi ones now, which got released on Sunday.
