Will my computer handle this new graphics card?

domocorn · Sep 25, 2014

Hi. I have a NVidia GT 610 MSI and I wanted to upgrade to a NVidia GTX 770 but I don know if my computer will be able to handle it power wise or maybe even motherboard wise. If you need any extra information like other computer specs. then just comment.

Thanks in advanced.

GTX 750 ti draws up to 60W and needs about 300W PSU . It would bring a huge improvement over GT 610 .

10x faster

I probaly should have told you that I was upgrading to be able to run a specific game PvZ Garden Warfare to be exact.

now hopefully my last question will the MSI GeForce GTX 970 be able to be installed into a MSI
760GM-P34(FX) motherboard?

No problem ! the mobo has one PCI-E x16 gen 2.0 , so any modern card will fit - gen 3.0 and gen 2.0 , cus PCI-E is bacward compatible

GTX 970 needs a good 600W PSU .

Perfect I actually have that exact motherboard so now all i need is a 600w power supply because the highest one i have is an ultra 550w. So close.

If you have an Intel processor , 550W may be enough .
