Which graphics card should I pair with the Ryzen 7 5800X?

Resolution	Enough for 60 fps	Fastest good match	CPU-limited games	Best NVIDIA	Best AMD	Best Intel
1080p high	Radeon RX 6600	Radeon RX 6700	25%	GeForce RTX 5050	Radeon RX 6700	Arc A770 16GB
1440p high	Radeon RX 6700 XT	Radeon RX 6800	25%	GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB	Radeon RX 6800	Arc B580
4K high	GeForce RTX 4070 Ti	Radeon RX 7900 XTX	25%	GeForce RTX 4080 Super	Radeon RX 7900 XTX	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 7 5800X limits in no more than 25% of the games. Faster cards still gain FPS, but in more games the processor sets the ceiling.
