Hey everyone! I just picked up a 9060XT 16GB GPU this morning, and I'm looking for some advice on installing it since I'm used to older GPUs and haven't worked with anything new like this before. Are there any essential steps or tips I should be aware of beforehand? Also, I've done my own research, but I'd like to hear your thoughts—is this 16GB model a solid upgrade from my current 1650 Super? I primarily game at 1080p and feel like this is a good option, but I want some reassurance since I avoided the 8GB version. Thanks!

You’re gonna love it! The 9060XT is a solid performer for 1080p, especially with all the VRAM. It should last you a while, especially with games coming out that support FSR4!
Just a heads up, make sure your PSU can handle the new GPU, and don't forget to check for any physical space issues in your case. What was the price on that 9060XT?
Sounds like a good upgrade! Just make sure to uninstall any old GPU drivers first before you swap the cards, and definitely grab the latest drivers for the 9060XT once it's installed. For gaming at 1080p, this should work great!
What do you think about the performance? Is it really a noticeable difference from the 1650 Super?
I got it for $349 from Newegg. Felt like a good deal!
