I want to upgrade my GTX 760 (4GB) to a GTX 1060. Can I do it without upgrading any other parts?


My Current Specs are as follows:
Motherboard: MSI - Z97-GAMING 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
GPU: MSI V282-073R NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 4GB
CPU: i7-4770k CPU @ 3.50GHz
PSU: CORSAIR Hydro Series H60 (CW-9060007-WW) High Performance Water / Liquid CPU Cooler. 120mm

If I do need to upgrade other components, can a suggestion be made to what I should upgrade too. Thank you for your assistance.

The 760 is roughly a 1050 in performance. So 760 to 1060 is a good upgrade. 760 to 1050 Ti is not worth it in my opinion. If you can power the 760 then you can power a 1060. Just make sure the pin type you have(6 pin or 6+2) matches the videocard you choose. If your power supply has two 6 pin connectors, don't choose a 1060 that requires an 8 pin connector.
