Yes it will work, as long as you got a PCie slot available

But it's really a bad buy, you'd get a ton more performance with getting a new PSU and a RX6600 (assuming you have standard board), for not much more money

if theyre standard you can just swap the psu and get a proper gpu

 

300$ should get you a used 6700xt/6800 condiering the psu upgrade (~50$ for a half decent 650/750w bronze unit or used 850w+ rmx/equivalent)

They are not standard this is the only option for me so before i buy the rtx 3050 6gb i want to make sure that my computer will support that card or not
