    VzysPC got a reaction from jerubedo in Upgrade CPU or GPU   
    Was a breeze to install and It runs GTA V max settings 120+ FPS. On lowest settings my 1050 wouldn’t get 70. Thank you for helping me out! ❤️  (p.s. it was a breeze to install) and it was too big because my pc had a screw-in cable hider. But it was worth losing!

    Just want to say thank you for helping me make the first upgrade to my pc! Went with the 1660 TI after a while of debating if the extra $100 would be worth it I took the shot. You’re a legend toaster. @jerubedo

    It's a 460w PSU with a single 6-pin VGA connector. The motherboard is proprietary, so I'd agree that compatibility with another CPU is questionable, however, a GPU upgrade should be okay as long as you stick with a card that only needs a 6-pin connector. We don't know the amperage on the +12V rail on that PSU, so don't go beyond 6-pin (as in don't use a 6-pin to 8-pin adapter). The 8100 is still good enough to drive up to a GTX 1660 Ti without bottlenecking (anything beyond that starts to bottleneck).
     
    Space also seems limited, so make sure you find out how much clearance is allowed for a card in that tower and make sure you stick to that. It would be best if you could get a single fan unit, since they are smallest, or a smaller dual fan card.
     
    I think the GTX 1660/1660 Ti use 8-pin connectors, so those would be out, as does the RX 590. I'd say maybe an RX 580? This one fits the bill.

    It will perform, at 1080p, about 50% better in GTA V, 40% better in Battlefield 5, 60% better in Witcher 3, etc. Those are based off of just a few benchmarks I found around the web.
