Looking to upgrade my 1660S

Question

4 years ago, when I was a broke ass student, I build my first PC (https://dk.pcpartpicker.com/list/9CDTh3). This was before I found this sub, so don't blame my choices back then.

Anyway. Now that I have a job, I'm looking to upgrade my 1660S and am looking for your advice. I have a 4k monitor and a 1920x1200 monitor (yes its 16:10 format is great) and don't need more than 60FPS as I play stuff like Factorio, Civilization VI and Stellaris. I don't need raytracing, so I was looking more towards AMD than NVIDIA.

If you gonna stay with 1080p, something basic would already help you a lot.

Entry Level - 6650xt

Mid Range - Rx6800

Higher End - Rx7900Gre /7900xt

What you choose depends on your wallet and also on your willingness to upgrade other parts. Especially the RAM ...2666mhz is really low.

Also how are your temps ? That Case looks like a big oven with very little space to pull in air.
