Should I get a GPU?

[ChipsTHING101]

So... recently I made a new PC, and for some reasons, I made some really, I mean REALLY questionable decisions. For example: I got the A620M H motherboard, and used a case bought from a now closed second hand shop (Sharkoon RGB 100). I have an 650W bronze rated PSU (jeez).Probably the worst mistake that I made is this: I bought a Ryzen 7 8700G, yeah I'm that stupid. Now I saw a used rx 6600xt on my romanian ebay that costs 155~ Dollars. Should I get the card or remain with my integrated gpu.

 

note: I play games like fortnite, cs2, minecraft, et cetera. If i'm going to get the RX6600XT then I would start playing games like GTAV(even tho it works, i have to put very low settings), Warzone, and I hope, assasins creed mirage.

650 watts and bronze rated is not a bad thing. what specific make and model did you go with? that makes more of a difference.

not really a bad decision, especially if you went with reasonably fast ram.

yeah, the 6600 XT is a good upgrade from the integrated graphics and would be pretty good for your gaming needs.

Long story short,

After i installed the PSU I throwed my box in the bin, and (the saddest part) because the case was from second hand, after i installed the PSU the screws somehow just got magically glued to the case and I couldn't remove power supply again (horrible!).

Afaik, the 780M is around the level of a 6400, so a 6600 XT is around 1.5x as fast on average (e.g. 30 fps for 6400, 70+ fps for 6600 XT).

but can you peek inside the case and read what's the model of the PSU?

depending on what exact model your PSU is, you could go for even slightly bit faster GPU

I am assuming you bought the PSU from a shop so you can't check an online purchase history. You can't see the label either?

 

Even on low end power supplies, a 6600 XT would not be too demanding, and 650 watts is a lot of power for a mid range PC, but it still helps to be certain of what you have. 

 

There's also no way the screws glued to the case, you should be able to remove them with a small wrench or pliers.
