Can my PC handle that graphic card

[YoshiTheGamer]

Hey guys im about to buy GeForce Gtx 1070 6gb Graphic card!

Here are my PC stats
-8gb RAM
-AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor
-GeForce GTX 750 ti Graphic card

So if i buy and add that graphic card (GeForce Gtx 1070 6gb) in my PC will it by any problem with my PC or it will be everything fine? might seem weird to ask that but im not very know in PC

Hey guys im about to buy GeForce Gtx 1060 6gb Graphic card!

Here are my PC stats
-8gb RAM
-AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor

So if i buy and add that graphic card (GeForce Gtx 1060 6gb) in my PC will it by any problem with my PC or it will be everything fine? might seem weird to ask that but im not very know in PC

is your PC a prebuilt one? what kind of motherboard are you using?

is not shit, just old heh.

Ok look, your pc can handle the card in question you want to buy despite only having pci-e 2.0 in your mobo as, pci-e is backwards compatible so a pci-e 3.0 gfx card will function in a pci-e 2.0 slot without any performance loss.
What i'm more concerned about here is your cpu as it will definitely bottleneck your gpu resulting in not only low framerates but also bad frametimes, and sadly there isn't much of an upgrade path beyond an FX 8350... and even then it will still lag behind most modern cpus.

Have you considered the RX 480? it offers practically the same performance as the GTX 1060 (6gb) for less money...

wasted money as your setup is too weak to properly use it, and the motherboard means you cant overclock


get a rx 470, it is a very nice upgrade from a 750 ti


just dont expect benchmark numbers from it

Hey guys what about if i buy Asus B150 Pro Gaming, LGA1151 ATX motherboard and keep all my other stuff from PC and only add GTX 1070 6GB will it work fine?

If those 8GB ram are DDR3, then should be ok to upgrade mobo too.
Always check Mobo's compatibility with Rams and CPU slot. If you buy LGA1151, then you'll have to change the CPU also ( AMD uses AM3/4 Slot)

no

you would need to buy a new intel cpu and ram, that mobo is ddr4


if you are buying new get a b250 motherboard with at least a i5 7500 and 8 gb ddr4

I read this thread and you start by asking about the 1060 then you later mention buying a 1070. Those are two completely different performance levels. What are your needs? What is it you want to do that the 750 Ti can't handle? What is your budget?

Oh yeah sorry i was about to buy 1070 6gb ( it was late at night and didnt see what im typeing XD )

if you are buying a 1070 then don't use it with your current pc, you'll suffer a severe cpu bottleneck so you are much better off building an entire new system.

you can re-use your ram and hdd with this build.
the xeon provides 4cores and 8 threads at an i5 price. alternatively if you want to overclock you could use the i5-4690k

Sadly with this build you'll not be able to OC, still, you'll get exceptional performance with the i5... plus you save money by using the stock cooler.
