Hello ı have been planning on upgrading my graphic card to gtx 1660 and ı was wondering if my 500w psu was enough for the job.According to hwmonitor,my psu provides 12.312V on 12+rail(ı dont exactly know what its called)and it provides 4.980 on the 5+rail.Can someone explain whether its good or not
 
The voltage on the rails doesn't really say much, indeed.

It would help more to know the rest of your system's specs. 500 watts sounds enough, but there are some PSUs that don't make as much as they say they do (or they can't maintain the 500W load sustained).

Providing a list of parts with brand and model names would help out more.
