Product: ENVY Phoenix 810-370st
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
I have a ENVY Phoenix 810-370st with the following hardware:
- Motherboard - Pittsburgh 2 IPIWB-PB
- Graphics card - Nvidia GeForce GTX 745
- Processor - Intel i7-4820 CPU@ 3.7 GHz (8 CPUs)
- BIOS - 8.20
- Memory - 32 GB RAM
- PSU - 500W
- OS - Windows 10 Home 64 bit
Due to a recent purchase of Flight Simulator 2020, I would like to upgrade my graphics card but am unsure if my present system could handle a graphics card upgrade. If so, what would be the maximum upgrade without purchasing additional hardware, i.e. new motherboard, PSU, etc. I don't really want to change any other hardware if I can help it.
