    Thanks John. I went to a computer store this afternoon and they advised the right one. It will be 35 euro but will be delivered next week. Now I only need to find the right jumper.

    Great news! I found a second hand GTX 980 for a good price. Just tried installing it, however this video hard needs 2 x 6 pin power supply. I only got the one so I will buy another cable. It seems you also have to adjust a jumper on the mainboard to enable the second power supply for the...

    Would be nice. I'm reading everywhere that it needs a minimum of 450W PSU. However I cannot judge the 410 is not sufficient. You think it's okay?

    No problem! So now we've established that the 1660S will do the trick. Now it's a matter of finding the one that fits inside the case.. I heard that ASUS makes dedicated ROG cards. Will these fit in? For example: https://www.asus.com/nl/Graphics-Cards/ROG-STRIX-GTX1660S-O6G-GAMING/

    Thanks for the tip man! That's definately worth a shot. I will check it out. I have the double power connections PSU, so I'd figure the highest (230W). Will check.

    Hi guys, I hope you can help me. My standard ASUS Geforce GTX 970 got toasted a few days ago. I ordered a Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1660 Super OC 6G card, which arrived today.
