I feel like I would reach for the used market over a 7600 based on what I read. Even if there were power constraints, one could power cap a 6000 series card.
...Hence I got a 3090 when the 4000/7000 series was long out.
You are overlooking the idle power-consumption. A 7600 basically idles at 5W or so (and turns off all fans). Now think about how many hours you surf the web etc. with your PC Vs. actual gaming and you can see that this makes a big difference.
