gpu first the 660 is long in the tooth

get a gtx 1050 ti minimum

gtx 1060 6gb would be ideal


you dont need to change anything else, well a SSD if you dont have one

you dont need to change anything else, well a SSD if you dont have one

so an gtx 1050 2gb would be a bad option and i should wait some time and raise money to go for a gtx 1050 ti ?? cause for sure i cant afford an gtx 1060 6 gb

1050 is too close to a 660, more of a side grade


you want a gtx 1050 ti at least to notice an upgrade

too bad the rx 470's are so overpriced now




this should help you

you want at least three tiers difference to really notice an improvement

maybe you can find a gtx 770 4gb or 280x or 380x for a good price?


look at local listings where you live, might even dfind something good like a gtx 970, or r9 290x for a good price


you have a GREAT power supply, those older more power hungry cards are no issue for you
