Which graphics card should I pair with the Ryzen 3 3100?

Resolution	Enough for 60 fps	Fastest good match	CPU-limited games	Best NVIDIA	Best AMD	Best Intel
1080p high	Radeon RX 6600	Radeon RX 9050 4GB	25%	GeForce RTX 3050 6GB	Radeon RX 9050 4GB	Arc A380
1440p high	Radeon RX 6700 XT	Arc A750	25%	GeForce RTX 3060 12GB	Radeon RX 6600	Arc A750
4K high	Radeon RX 6950 XT	GeForce RTX 4070	25%	GeForce RTX 4070	Radeon RX 6800	Arc B580

Enough for 60 fps: the slowest (usually cheapest) current desktop card that reaches 60 fps at high in 80% of the games. Fastest good match: the fastest card the Ryzen 3 3100 limits in no more than 25% of the games. Faster cards still gain FPS, but in more games the processor sets the ceiling.
