Your system has a 320 watt power supply.

According to Tech Power Up the 1660 super requires a 300 watt power supply.

I do not know what other upgrades you have have added.  If you have one of the 35 watt processors you should be ok.

If you are have on e of the 75 watt and have 7200 RPM drives, you might be close to the design limit.

Our expert @NonSequitur777 has upgraded the SFF version of the 6300 and you might look at what he has done

Thanks for the input I'm just getting ready to install the power supply here in a few. My video card won't be here for a couple of days
