Is there such a card?

I've owned my XFX RX 6600 for about 2 years now and it's a great card but making the step to 1440p has limits. In my opinion PC gaming is in an almost ridiculous place ATM with prices and marketing so...

Also thanks for any help and please explain why you suggest a certain GPU. New or used doesn't matter.

For me, I think the 6000 series is remarkably good. I picked up a 6800 non-XT for something like 380 dollars late last year. Personally, I think that's my suggestion if you plan to move to 1440p (that was my reason for upgrading as well).

IMO 8 GB VRAM isn't enough nowadays, and I suspect 12 GB is next on the chopping block. It may be barely enough for now, but I don't think it'll be enough in the near future. Nobody can predict the future, but I would honestly go straight for 16 GB VRAM cards if you want your card to have any lasting power
