I want a new case, GPU and more RAM (up to 16gb).

My hardware at this moment is:

- MSI Nightblade MI3 7rb-006eu;

- CPU: i5-7400;

- RAM: SK Hynix 8GB DDR4 1Rx8 PC4-2400T SA1 11;

- HDD: 1TB;

- GPU: MSI GeForce® GTX 1050Ti Gaming 4GB GDDR5 ;

- MB: MS-B9071 - LGA1151 ;

- PSU: 350W 80 Plus Bronze (1U);


Thank you

There are GTX1650 Super cards that require 6 pin power. They use about 100W, which isn't much more than the 75W your 1050Ti uses, so you wouldn't need a new PSU. A 1650 Super is considerably faster also (about 2x).

On the RAM, you can simply buy a second [SODIMM] stick of DDR4-2400 to get you to 16GB.

Can it be that the pins of the power cable are 24?
Can the GPU be GDDR6 or need it to be GDDR5
