Hi. I have my little budget build PC that I built in late 2017 that has served me well so far, but I'm itching to have it improved to get better gaming performance out of it since the 1060 has troubles maintaining 60fps on high in the vast majority of new releases. Thing is though, I dont know how much I'd have to change if i wanted a new GPU (lets say a 1070). Not sure if I'd have to buy a new MOBO, or PSU to support the increased power consumption.
Specs:
CPU: I5 7600k with hyper 212 cooler
GPU: EVGA GTX 1060 6gb MINI
MOBO: MSI B250M PRO-VD
RAM: Ballistix Sport 2x4 2400
PSU: EVGA 430W
Storage: WD Blue 1TB, Samsung 850 EVO 250Gb
Windows 10
Case: Thermaltake Versa N21
I dont want to go over $1000 in upgrades. So nothing crazy like a 2080. More along the lines of a 1080 or 1070Ti; but would that mean id need to upgrade my PSU? MOBO? Larger Case? and if so, what would you recommend? Thank you for your time.
