I built a PC using parts from Newegg for a total of $674.65 (shipping included) and tried to flip it on Facebook for $775, but no one on my local area wanted it, so now I guess I'll just use and keep it.

It has a Ryzen 5 8600G running the Radeon 760M iGPU, along with 32GB of DDR5-6000 CL30 RAM, a 1TB PCIe 4x4 SSD, 650W PSU, and B650 mobo inside a microATX case. Can play in 1080p/60 fps at medium/high settings depending on the game, and can do 90-120fps at the lowest settings (games are BO6, Doom Dark Ages, Fortnite, Cyberpunk).

I wanna pair it with either an Intel B580 for $337 (with shipping) from Newegg, or wait for the AMD RX 9060 XT to come out for $350 and get it from Best Buy or Amazon with free shipping, when I get paid this Friday.

Of course, I have heard that those 8000G CPUs have half the L3 cache of a normal 7000/9000 Ryzen CPU, but how much performance would O really be losing here? Would it really be worth spending an extra $315 on a used Ryzen 5 7600X3D I found (since new ones are exclusive to Micro Center, who does not ship and is not located in Hawaii), or will just sliding in one of those aforementioned GPUs with my 8600G be enough for 1080p/200fps (or a 1440p upgrade)?
