Can Intel xeon e3-1270 support nvidia gtx 1060

[Hammad_7]

hi all I want to find out that will this computer support GTX 1060

- Intel Xeon E3-1270 3.4 GHz
- Intel C206 Chipset LGA 1155
- Corsair Vengeance 16GB 1600MHz
- SeaSonic 500W 80 Plus bronze PSU

I've tried starting a friends R9 390 on this board, but it didn't work. So I took his Power Supply (Thermaltake TR2 TRX-650M 650W ATX 12V v2.3 / EPS 12V v2.91 PFC Modular Power Supply) but it still didn't work. Also from what I have seen it says that the 1060 requires 400W & 27A on 12V rails, whereas the 390 requires 750W & 50A on 12V. Will the 1060 run on the current 500W PSU?

Thankyou.

Yes that cpu will work fine with a 1060, and yes it will also run on that 500w psu, no issues here, enjoy your 1060. A 1060 is much more efficient than a r9 390 aswell.

I dont know why its beeping, but the r9 390 uses indeed more power, but does the r9 390 works fine in your friends pc? and also what gpu do you have now?

yeah it works fine.. im currently using gtx 750ti and my friend cpu is core i5 3470 and he have 650psu and r9 390. but iv also used my friends PSU but it beep like so. i have lenovo thinkstation e30 and my friend have core i5 3470. i guess his motherboard consume less TDP and my consume more i guess idk why .. im thinking to take gtx 1060

- gtx 1060 400W & 27Amp
- r9 370 750W & 50Amp

im scared of money drawn..if iv used my money on gtx 1060 and afterall it wont work 🙁 im just naive...
