Upgrading GPU?

Jmancometh678 · ‎04-01-2022

Hello, i am looking to upgrade my 1660 super for a 3060ti, however i am seeing vidoes of people upgrading thier Graphics cards and claiming you need additional parts like pins. Can someone clarify this for me? This is my first time doing any form of upgrades, and i want to make sure i have everything i need.

sorry
but why open a new thread..
it seems that everything has been said that is possible here
Some graphics cards need additional pci connectors, that's all I can add I think!
