Hi so my my specs
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Processor (6C/12T, 35MB Cache, 4.2 GHz Max Boost)
GIGABYTE B550 AORUS Elite V2
Arctic Freezer 34 eSports Edition Heatsink & Fan Black & White Intel & AMD Sockets
PowerColor AMD RX 580 8GB DDR5 RED DEVIL Graphics Card Gaming Version (AXRX580 8GBD5-3DH/OC)
Kingston KHX3600C18D4/16GX 4 Sticks 64gb total
Intel 660p M.2 2280 512GB PCI Express 3.0 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive Rev:4.00 (OS DRIVE) (2019/08/09 sticker date)
Corsair CX550F RGB
fractal Pop Silent
I am thinking of upgrading my PowerColor AMD RX 580 8GB DDR5 RED DEVIL Graphics Card Gaming Version (AXRX580 8GBD5-3DH/OC) and buying a used card on Facebook marketplace or eBay for 200 to 400 ponds. What cards do you all recommend?
I forgot to ask i only game at 1080p.

Here is a list of cards for your budget, I have set it minimum of 12gb.

Avoid the Intel cards
If raytracing is your thing go nvidia if not then I reckon AMD gives you more in terms of value.
btw, i think 64 gb is overkill for gaming, unless you are doing memory intensive tasks/workloads then 32gb would be ample
 
Thank you both I know and is a better card but I would like to try raytracing What is the best card for my setup?

Despite Nvidia's claims to the contrary like Alien said raytracing is not something for low end cards, even with DLSS it's just a bad experience, if you have the budget for a 7800xt it will give you better raytracing than say a 6000 series AMD card and can equal a 4070 in some games in raytracing, but it'll get slaughtered in more Nvidia sponsored games in raytracing.


Still if you want raytracing I wouldn't start at anything lower than a 4070 and a Ti would be better, if it were my money though I'd try real hard to get a 7800xt.
