Hey everyone! I'm having some trouble with my computer loading games that I've enjoyed for years and I'm considering giving my GPU a boost. Right now, I have a 3060 Ti, and I'm thinking about upgrading to a 5060 Ti. My question is, do I just need to purchase the new GPU and get someone to install it, or is there something else I should be checking for in terms of compatibility or requirements? I admit I'm not very tech-savvy, so any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

If loading times are your main concern, upgrading the GPU might not fix the problem. Focus on your storage first! Is your game library installed on an SSD? If not, that could be your solution. Just a thought before you invest in a new graphics card.
Just a heads up, loading issues often stem from your storage or CPU rather than just the GPU. It might be worth looking into your specs to see if those components are up to par. Have you been using an SSD? That can really help with game loading times!
Actually, the GPU won't really affect loading times much. It's likely tied to your storage or CPU. Before jumping into a GPU upgrade, check if you have an SSD and how it's performing. If you’re low on storage space or the SSD isn’t healthy, addressing those might be more beneficial for improving load times.
