MrCookieCat · ‎01-09-2019

I have an omen 870-224 and i saw the RTX 2060 and i think it would be a massive upgrade from the GTX 1060 but im wondering if the PSU, case and motherboard would let me upgrade to a rtx 2060.

@MrCookieCat, welcome to the forum.

Here are specifications for the RTX 2060 from Nvidia's website. The length of the card is 9". You can measure from the Back I/O ports to the front of the case to see if it fits with space for good airflow. This will be very important. It requires a 500W power supply unit (PSU). The PSU in your computer is 500W. It requires an 8-pin supplemental power connector. You should check to see if you have a 6+2-pin connector on your PSU. Read the five items in small print at the bottom of the page to assure your system meets these requirements.

I do believe that it would work but you may need to change your cooling system to a stronger one which is not usually that $$
