[SOLVED] Will the RTX 2080 work on my PC?

[Domelicious]

My current specs are :

Windows 10 – 64b
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K
GPU: Nvidia GTX660
RAM: 24gb DDR3
MOBO: Asus Z87-K
Power: 600w

What is the make and model number of your power supply?
The base RTX 2080 has a 6-pin and an 8-pin PCIE power port. What does the one you're looking at have?
The base specifications of the card recommend a 650 watt power supply and you state (without brand or model number) only a 600 watt power supply.

Need more information to make a call.

The power supply is a Corsair CX600. If I upgrade the power supply, this card will be good to go?

I assume this is for gaming? What resolution and Hz is the monitor? My old system had a 4670k @ 4.3GHz and it was struggling with cpu heavy games released in the last few years. Even if intending to game at 4K you may still be cpu limited in some games.

I was thinking the same, might get this one instead.

Depends what you are aiming for. If you want to play the latest AAA games you are going to struggle with some regardless of gpu choice. BF1 for example was playable on my 4670k but not enjoyable when playing larger maps. Gears 5 was completely unplayable. What resolution and Hz is the monitor, this is a key factor for choosing a suitable gpu.
