@Swingpjatten,

Here are the requirements for Photoshop  and the specifications on your unit.

Comparing the gt 730 to the GTX 1660   and the original180W plus the GPU of 120-135W requires more power.  Most sites suggest a 450-500W PSU. IMHO, stay with the 500W suggestion.   Also, you need to measure the length available using a cardboard template, as some of the 1660's are 9" long.

EVGA short but very wide    Gigabyte mid length dual slot width

Thanks for your quick response.

I can still use most of the functions in PS with the board i have.
