I've got a 2060 gpu in my desktop and I want to upgrade to atleast a 3060. I've been using pc partpicker to check compatibility. Is there anything else I need to check before I buy a new card? Like I've got a Asus B560-plus motherboard and it seems that the 3060 card is compatible. Anybody got advice on any other sites or software to check so I don't fuck it up? I've replaced most things on my pc except gpu and motherboard.

Why are they the same price as a5 year old card?

Prices have not come down at all on older generations. First you could mine cryptocurrency with them, now you can run AI on them.
