It's an upgrade, not a massive one tho, i recommend going for an RX 580 tbh. It's not much more expensive and imo worth the extra money.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

eBay yourself a 1060 6gb or even a 1070.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
