Hey guys, I'm hoping to upgrade my graphics card on my 3d workstation to take advantage of GPU rendering. however im wondering if i need to upgrade any other components as well to be able to use an RTX card. I built this system a while ago,probably 5 years ago now and I'm pretty clueless with components so just wondering what, if anything, is still good, and what could be upgraded. Thanks!
