yes you do for the other parts and power spikes

how easy is it to upgrade power? is it js upgrading the cord? im new to PCs D:

Yes, u definitely need at least 50 to 100w over the recommended in most cases. Plus, does ur power supply have extra pcie cords? (to power the GPU). Well, since your power is limited and im assuming this is an oem prebuilt i.e Dell, or Asus. Ran out of room, 1 sec ill make anothe

So, maybe a 6600 xt would do the trick? Hopefully your psu has the pcie cord to support it. Good luck and if u have any questiobs lmk! :D

would it be better to upgrade my PSU? and how many watts would i want to upgrade to? also if there are any GPUs that can play all games (idrc about low settings) that are around the 250$ area that use less watts could you inform me?

well, let's see. Do you have js a normal prebuilt that's made by someone or one of the big named companies like Dell, HP, Asus, and such? If so, the parts would be proprietary thus, in that case, the PSU would be irreplaceable. :( Ran out of space again, lol. :P

getting stable 60fps on non AAA games would be great too

its a Ipason prebuilt one, and im pretty sure everything is customizable

As for the gpu, a RX 6600 XT or a 7600 XT would be good. Or, you could with Nvidia, a RTX 3060 (highly recommend getting the 12 Gb version), or a even more watt efficient 4060 would be fine. I've always liked AMD imo, but Nvidia is still great, just sometimes not the best value.

Huh, Ipason, never heard of that so that's a good sign that's not proprietary! If you can replace the PSU, I would get a Corsair (amazing quality) and get a 650 watt, or even better a 750 watt for the future! Although, that'll cost about $139 if I remember correctly.

Alright man, i'm gonna get off 4 the night. I can answer more questions tmr! If u have discord I can help u on there if you'd like! Sleep well! :D

i dont have discord yet, im trying to convince my parents-- if i get it, i'll let you know!

@Wildfire Ok, got it! :]
