Ok so basically I am trying to replace the gpu of this pc. I bought a Geforce 1060 6gb SC and a new power supply to replace the one in the pc because that only had a max of 240 watts. I got a 500 watt EVGA psu. So basically I had 2 questions. First off would this technically even work, cause I found a couple articles on an upgrade on this pc and there were a whole variety of answers to this question. If it were to work, my second question would be if I stored my extra cables from my psu inside the pc case would there too much restriction on air flow since I got a non modulated psu. I was stupid not to come to these tech forums and ask these questions before I bought all this shiz so if this would work it would be great.
Here are some pics of how I assembled some of the excess cables inside the pc.

I am just waiting on a 24 pin to 6 pin conversion cable for my motherboard, but if you guys could validate what I am doing to upgrade my pc right now that would be great lol.
