Hi!
So I bought my PC a few years ago and it's been a good machine but GPU needs replacing. Specs are here: https://support.hp.com/sg-en/document/c04010525
The GPU I'm looking at is MSI GeForce GTX 1070 DUKE OC 8GB Video Card and PSU Corsair VS Series 550W from mwave. Not sure if my processor needs upgrading, but it been a pretty zippy machine and seems to run games (like Overwatch) that are CPU dependent surprisingly well.
I'd like to upgrade graphics to a GTX 1070. Not sure whether it's even possible though with my current system. I'm also not sure if any of my current specs would bottleneck the rest. Any advice would be appreciated and thanks in advance. I've never upgraded a PC before, so I just want to make sure I'm buying the right thing. I don't want to have to buy an entirely new rig as it would be too expensive.
