So, my system is pretty good in most aspects. It's no where near the top of the performance list anymore, but aside from the graphics card it still handles what I've thrown its way thus far. The graphics card though...
At this point I'm sure it counts as an antique compared to what's on the market currently, so I would like to upgrade that component alone. It's a GeForce GT 640 (Oi, stop laughing in the back. Respect the elderly, and all that). I can find a 1060 fairly cheap and that would be a sizable upgrade and could handle the games I play currently and what will probably come out for a bit yet. But I don't want to buy the new card only to find out that it's not compatible and be stuck with it an unable to get a refund because the box has been opened.
Alternatively, I found a pretty beefy system I could buy that would probably serve me for several years to come that isn't stupidly expensive, but obviously a graphics card is cheaper than a whole new system. Plus being able to just upgrade the graphics means I can avoid giving up my Windows 7 for a bit longer still.
