Gpu upgrade

[Barry685]

I have the opportunity to purchase a used rtx 3070 ti. I will be using it with an Intel I7-6700k cpu. The power supply is  a Seasonic 650w 80 - Gold. Do you think the power supply is sufficient?

That CPU Draws around 100 Watts by itself, and the Video Card draws around 220 Watts. Then you have the Motherboard, Hard Drives, USB Devices, etc. It should be enough. I wouldn't go any less.

Hi Bryan,

Is this adequate for current version of photoshop?

No. You want a NVIDIA RTX 3070 or 3080 in 2022/2023. 8GB is “Fine.” So is 12GB.
 

Keep saving.
