Hi!

I don't know much about hardware, and i don't want to disassemble my pc to get the answer to my question.

So, the question is: Can my pc support a   "MSI Radeon RX 570 ARMOR "  or a   "GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC Edition"?

Thank you for the attention!

@Type,

You will have to do some work. Open the case and look. Measure. Report back.

No one has a "magic Ouija Board" that looks inside your system.

Once you have it open, what is the:

1) Model number on the 180W power supply? Is it L09029-800,  L08261-001, or  L08660-800.

2) Measured length of card that would drop into the PCIEx16 slot.

3) Did you know that some GTX 1050Ti cards have a 6 pin PSU?  What card manufacturer?

4) Did you mean this MSI card, if so it requires an 8 pin power plug.

5) Depending on answer to #3 or #4,  I will tell you what new power supply you need. Thinking 400W.

Uhm,  I have a 180 watt power supply, and anyway the first choice would be the rx 570. That being said, I will take care of the dismantling of the case and look at the data you have named. Thank you!
