Sticking to your 550W should be fine enough for your setup, if your unit is good. Whats your specific PSU?

If it's the new CX550 with the white label it should be mostly fine. If it's the old one with a green label then forget it, get a new PSU.

im pretty lazy to open my pc 

Well our answer details are in proportion of your dilligence, your loss. Id say 50/50 itll work then, because green label CX550 is definitely aint going to make it 585670404954259456.png?size=96

It's the new one. I would still replace it myself, especially if it's few years older.

 

But then again, I'm paranoid with power supplies because I've fried two motherboards with them in the past.

Thanks, the region lock was so fumingly annoying. Its honestly fine for a 2080Ti at stock settings, youre not going to OC this GPU at all at 550W anyway.

Heavily depends on whats their specific 2080Ti's but if we assume founder's edition it will fit.

Go to the MSI's website (or look at the manual), they will tell you how much space the case has for the GPU.

Then you of course need to ask your friend which specific model it is and look at its size.

the case has gpu length up to 330m
and most of the rtx 2080 ti's are around this
