750 ti*

uh... take the 750Ti out, disconnect anything thats connected to it, put the 1060 where you took the 750Ti out of, plug a 6-pin into the 1060.

 

that said.. this thing looks like it could use a propper dusting session before receiving its new hardware..

that's a 6+2 pin, given that your 1060 (most likely) has a 6-pin plug, you leave the two extra pins hanging loose, and you plug in the 6 pins into the GPU, after having plugged the 1060 into the approprite slot on the mobo, and having it bolted down.

 

that said, repeating myself, please give that pc a propper dusting session before you slot in your new card..
