Looking to upgrade my GPU (lemmy.world)

During the pandemic, I rebuilt my computer but with GPU prices being insanely inflated, I decided to limp along with my old GPU (a GeForce GTX 760). The issue is that I have a 4k monitor and my current card can barely handle my desktop, never mind a game.

I have heard that prices are coming back down to a sane level, so I am looking for part suggestions. I am not looking to play new games or ultra high settings, but I would want to at least be able to handle older/indie games, on medium settings, at a steady 30 FPS.

I have a 43” 4K TV as my monitor but I run my games at 1440p native pixel sizing. It makes it like a 27” 16:9 monitor which is plenty big and I don’t need an overkill card for it.
