would a gigabyte geforce gtx1060 6gb g1 work well for FAH w/ my setup?

Current setup is:

CX750m PSU

asus m5a99x evo

amd fx8150

coolermaster hyper 212 black - single fan (keeping my cpu @ 42c despite 80-90% cpu utilization for the last 24h straight)

Radeon HD 6150

(4x8GB) Patriot Viper III DDR3 1866MHz

windows 10 64-bit

hp 27er monitor

 

the gtx 1060 i mentioned in the title is listed on FB marketplace near me for $200, and i was planning on just adding it to one of my available slots and letting it fold all day, as my current card is all i need for we browsing and some simple games i play.

Hey, this sounds like an alright plan. Just make sure you have enough power available from your PSU. Also when you do add it to your system make sure that you keep an eye on temps for the first little bit and make sure temps aren't getting over 80C. Thanks for considering this for the folding team, any other questions let me know!
