Will a 1660 Super be compatible with my motherboard?

[Daniel britton]

So im looking at a new graphics card, namely the gtx 1660 Super. My motherboard is a MSI krait Z170A 3x. So will that GPU work fine with my motherboard? Also would i need a new power supply too, im using a 650W

Motherboard- yes. All gpus just slide right into a pcie x16 slot. Any modern board will have at least one

 

Power supply- wattage wise yeah, but it really depends on what unit it is

Okay thanks, well ill just have to do some more digging but im not at home so i couldnt tell you what the actual one is. But yeah that GPU would definitely be an upgrade from a 660 haha

Your powersupply wattage should be fine. Especially if it's a name brand like EVGA or Corsair.

Brand doesn't matter. Both have crappy units and good units.

It will work great and be a good pairing for CPU you have

My CPU is a kaby lake i5 7500 so i wont need to upgrade that. Well im hoping to not have to replace the PSU because i havent got a clue how to do that. GPU and CPU and other simple things im fine but PSU i have no clue
