Question Trying to upgrade Graphics Card

[crispybeck]

Hi, new to this place, but some help would be awesome;

I have the below desktop and am looking to upgrade my graphics card to increase FPS performance within games.

Current PC specs are as follows;

Asus CM6830 Desktop PC, Intel Core i5-3350P 3.1GHz, 8GB RAM 1TB HDD, DVDRW, NVIDIA GTX650, Windows 8

From looking around I believe the NVIDIA GTX 1060 3GB is a suitable graphics card to get around 100FPS, however I am unsure whether or not this would be compatible with my set-up. Would I need a new power supply etc.?

Any help on the above would be great!

Welcome to the forum!

What PSU do you have now?

While the 1030 3gb would be an improvement for the price I'd get the RX 570 as it can be found for like $30 cheaper and has the additional 1gb of vram. As for getting 100 FPS depends on the game but your probably due for a CPU/MB/RAM upgrade as well.

Might be worth considering a GTX1050Ti as well, it doesn't need connecting to the power supply as the mobo will supply enough and should be a fair bit cheaper than the 1060 but you'll still see a big step up from a 650.
