I was informed that I should make sure it has enough PCIe lanes, however I am not knowledgeable enough to understand what all of this means.

W10 Home
I5 10400f
16 Gigs 2666 DRAM
RX 6700 non Xt

Thanks in advance!

Thank you, I will try to make sense of the spec sheets when upgrading in the future.
