Do I need anything else? - GT 1030 / GT 730

[sho2342]

What do I need to get if I want a GT 1030 OR a GT 730? I want both to be 2GB, and DDR5 something..

I currently have

Processor
-AMD A6-3670 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics, 2700 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)

GPU
- AMD Radeon HD 6450

PSU
- KRPW-L5-600W/80+

Motherboard
-Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. GA A55M-DS2

RAM
-8GB DDR3





And also will a GTX 550 TI work with this??

Basically, you don't need anything except the card itself. Get 1030, it is more than 8x faster than your current GPU. Uses very little power as well.

Note that, depending on the size of your computer case, you might want to search for a low profile version of 1030, or else it won't fit physically. If you have a classic desktop tower, then you can get any version you want.

550Ti would also work, but I don't recommend it. It is an old tech, with older drivers, uses twice as much power as 1030 and is still 50% slower than it in the end.

Thank you VERY much sir, that really was a great answer I was hoping to get! Thanks!
