So had someone built a PC for me a few months ago as I wasnt too sure how too myself. They suggested integrated graphics seeing as I would only play low-end games but I regret not getting an actual GPU since. Been looking into GPUs and made a decision on the GTX 1060 but had a few questions. 1) The PSU connectors are I think 4 pin (The power supply is an ATX-500 B 500W PC Power Supply, not sure if that useful) but I dont want to end up buying a GPU then not being able to use it. 2) The PSU has 500w and would be enough for the 1060, but im not sure if I need a little more power for the GPU or would it be fine. The 1060 is around 300w-450w I think and I think it would be cutting it too close. 3) Would it be better to get a new PSU or get a simpler GPU. I want to be able to really crank my games up to good settings but the reccomended GPU is a GTX 660, wanted to be sure that I can run it in high settings and also be able to run higher games if I play them. Or would it be worth upgrading the PSU instead, seems like alot of trouble for a novice like myself but would be able to play with the 1060 and make sure everythings perfect, just dont want too much hassle though. Was thinking about going to a local PC shop where they made the PC and asking what sort of upgrades I would need but trying to save myself the trip to be honest. Anyone got any advice? Keep in mind im a noobie with this sort of stuff so dont over complicate your replies.
Thank you
