I'm wondering if, to get a new graphics card, I need any other parts for the graphics card to run in my pc. Also what card are you using, and whats the price? And what suggestions you have , not extremely expensive. Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/66817-new-graphics-card-other-parts-needed-to-support-a-new-card/

Lyple Posted March 13, 2017 Content Count: 48 Joined: 03/03/17 Status: Offline Share Posted March 13, 2017 Well it depends @Metal cause if you have a horrible CPU and a great gpu, your pc will bottle neck which is not good at all, so your CPU would hold your gpu away from it full potential, the only thing I recommend you to do is to get educated on computers a little so you know if things are compatible or not, cause I would love to help, but I can't with out the specs of your pc 1 Link to comment https://forums.steam-gamers.net/topic/66817-new-graphics-card-other-parts-needed-to-support-a-new-card/#findComment-820167
