Hi everybody,
I'm having some confusion about upgrading my existing machine with the new Gigabyte PCX GeForce GTX 1070 Xtreme Gaming 8GB GDDR5
I am aware that there are many threads regarding this graphics card and I've read many of them, but I still have some doubts on whether it is fine to only plug in the new card and I'd be "ready to go".
I have to note that I'm using my machine for work in 3ds Max and VRay rendering. I'm working with large and complex architectural scenes.
Specs:
Motherboard: Foxconn P67A-S
CPU: Intel Core i7-2600 @ 3.4GHz - Sandy Bridge
RAM: 12GB DD3 Kingston HyperX (considering upgrading to 32GB)
GPU (current): Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 2GB DDR5
Power Supply: CODEGEN 550W
and two Philips 60Hz monitors
Will there be some drawbacks? Do I need to change some other parts to get the full advantage of this upgrade?
Thank you.
