I’d imagine you might be able to find a used 3060ti around that same price range tbh, but all of those seem like good options

Want to upgrade / build new pc

#

The motherboard is not the issue. The only way it’d not fit would be the case not accommodating

#

Also is there a reason you want nvidia? Atm, unless you get a used deal, they’re a bad choice

#

Wdym “will it work”

#

If you’re worried that intel and amd won’t be compatible, you’d be wrong

#

as long as it physically fits in the case/motherboard, it will almost certainly work

#

the only thing to look out for is having the required power cables for whatever new gpu you add

#

could you find how many pcie cables are on your psu?

#

uhhh

#

open the back side panel and count how many of these you find. one or more may only have 6 pins instead of 8

#

does your gpu use a 6 pin or 8 pin?

#

could you take a picture of the connection?

#

if you look closely at this pic too, there's a little wire sticking off that cable that turns that 6 pin into an 8 pin. its commonly called 6 + 2 and exists for backwards-compatibility

#

dang

#

must be a low power model

#

and you're sure the cables are 6 pin only?

#

thats good

#

so that means you can power a lot of gpus
