Is that a good upgrade for 1080p?

Come on to the games you want to play. With many current titles, 8GB VRAM is no longer sufficient

Well, since RX 6600 now costs almost 220€, I can’t recommend it anymore. I’d wait a few more weeks. At CES 2025 (07.01), AMD & Nvidia will introduce their new models. Especially at AMD I expect a certain price slip here soon. For a similar money (approximately 220-230€), you get the RX 7600, which is about 25-30% faster than an RX 6600. So if you’re up with the only 8GB Vram, this would be the better choice.

The CPU Bottleneck should be still negligible at GPU Intensive Games. For CPU Intensive Titles, you should think about a quick upgrade.

For about 150€ you can naturally add the RX 6600. But I would take one that has at least 6-12 months remaining warranty. (Manufacturers give 3 years). So you’re still relatively safe. Completely without guarantee, it would not be worth the part just 50€ savings. First of all, because you can get an RX 6700XT for about 190-220€, depending on the offer situation, which would be good in your upgraded PC thanks to even more performance & 12GB Vram.

Buy a card from 2021. Whether this is a good idea in the long term is sometimes put there. The upgrade itself will remember.

The CPU is a bit slow, but only from the graphics performance, it is a clear difference, despite any bottleneck.
