I want to upgrade my system with a EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 760 Superclocked ACX 2GB GDDR5 gpu. My current specs are as followed (note I bought this desktop made so I dont know all the specifics)

Amd FX-6350 six core gpu
Nvidia gtx 650 gpu ( wish to upgrade)
8gb of ddr3 ram
1tb 7200rpm hd

You'll need to change your PSU. Here's the one that I recommend you : http://us.ncix.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=59615&vpn=P1550SXXB9&manufacture=XFX&promoid=1282.

Hi,

to really be sure that you can support an 760, i need to know what motherboard you have... can you look it up?
if you can't find it here's a little program i use sometimes: http://www.piriform.com/speccy

good luck!

If he has an FX-6350, he probably has at least one PCIe connector on his motherboard.

I have a gigabyte 78MLT-USB3 motherboard

Yes, you'll be able to fit your card in this motherboard. But as I said, you'll need a new PSU. The one that I recommended earlier is the cheapest one that you could get.
