I'm looking to upgrade my old PC, which currently has a GT730 4GB, an i5 4590 processor, and 16GB of RAM. I'm interested in buying a 1080TI, but I'm not sure how to check if there's enough physical space in my case for it. Also, what should I consider regarding power supply requirements?

To see if the 1080TI will fit in your case, you'll need to check the dimensions of the GPU and compare it with your case's specs—this info is usually on the manufacturer's website. Don’t forget to look up your power supply to ensure it can handle the GPU's demands, typically you're looking for something around 600-700 watts for smooth operation.
That's right! Just remember that in addition to wattage, your PSU will need the right connectors for the GPU. If you're not sure, it’s worth checking the specs!
