I want to upgrade the graphics card in my alienware x51 r2 to a GeForce GTX 1060 SC.

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz
16GB RAM
GTX 750i
256SSD + 1TB Storage
330W supply

I know GTX 1060 FE is a best fit for my system. however, it is out of stock even on Nvidia's homepage.

I am not sure which to buy. I tried Zotac 1060 mini 6GB but It did not work well. it might be caused by lack of power, I think. so I returned.

Can you recommend which product I should buy for this purpose?

Thank you

Then its likely any 1060 would not work right then.

I would advise going for the GTX 1050 ti, as its power requirements are much much lower (unless there is a power supply upgrade).

GPU turned to be dead in 5~6 min after booting windows. I checked with graphic card seller. it seemed like that it was due to lack of power supply.
