Sorry if any questions I ask are stupid, my brother recently passed down a custom gaming system he made last year. It is already a very powerful and cool computer, but I wanted to up the GPU a bit and I wanted to do it all myself. This is my first time working on a PC, and I have certainly done my reading up on it. My first question is, with this current build, would upgrading to a higher GPU require me to upgrade any other parts? The system currently has.
Corsair Builder Series CX 600 Watt ATX/EPS 80 PLUS
G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin SDRAM DDR3
AMD FD6300WMHKBOX FX-6300 6-Core Processor Black Edition
Western Digital Caviar Blue 500 GB SATA III 7200 RPM
ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB RAM
I am considering upgrading it to a
XFX Radeon 7950 R7950 3GB Core Edition Video Card
Will upgrading to this card require any additional parts to be upgraded?
