Asked By TechieNerd123 On

I'm looking to upgrade my GPU from a GTX 1650 Super to either an RX 6600 or an RTX 3050, and I'd love some advice. Specifically, I'm concerned about potential bottlenecks with my current setup and whether my 500W PSU can handle it. My specs are: CPU: Ryzen 5 2600, Motherboard: Asrock B450M Hdv, RAM: Team T Force Delta 16GB (2x8) 3000MHz, and cooling includes 3 fans plus a Deepcooler heatsink. Any insights on whether this setup is safe or if I might face issues would be appreciated. Thanks!

Your PSU should be fine with the RX 6600. As for bottlenecking, you might notice some issues depending on the games you play, especially if they're CPU-intensive. Consider upgrading to a Ryzen 5000 series if you go for more demanding titles.

Thanks for the info! Would switching to an RTX 3050 instead change things?
