Hey everyone, I currently own a 1660 Super and I'm thinking about upgrading it. I've been using it for four years now. My budget is between £350 and £400. Thanks in advance!

What other components do you have? Especially the PSU model and its age.

TBH it is a pretty terrible time to buy a graphics card, not only new, but used as well.
The new AMD cards are going well over MSRP and NVIDIA is mostly vaporware at least up to recently. As a result of so much demand a lot of the used stuff is marked over its real value as well. My opinion would be to tough it out for a bit and wait for the new 9xxx AMD cards to come available at MSRP.
You "might" be able to find a 7xxx card or something back in the Nvidia stable from 40 or 30 series.
There is always Intel...

This setup looks solid and should help maximize card performance. For better results, consider an RX 7700 XT or 7800 XT. Keep an eye on the RTX 5060 ti and RX 9060 (XT) options if you plan to purchase soon.
