Forum Overview :: American McGee's Honda Civic :: I just bought a Newegg prebuilt with a 3060 TI in it.

[quote name="Fullofkittens"]Previous to that I had an HP Pavilion. A couple of data points: <ul><li>The graphics card of my old HP was a Geforce 1050 TI, which is physically larger than the 3060 TI. They are both huge but the old card does fit in the old case.</li> <li>The Newegg case has a fuckton of huge loud case fans in it, which I presume they assume was required. My HP didn't have those. So heat might be a problem.</li> <li><a href="https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Knowledge-Base/Power-Supply-Cross-Reference-for-specific-models/ta-p/7483923/jump-to/first-unread-message">According to this</a> the power supply is not adequate (a 3060 requires 200W on its own, looks like TP01s have a 180W PSU. My old PSU had 300 which probably wouldn't be enough either.)</li> <li>The case organization is built around everything being locked down and minimum cable length everywhere as you hinted at, so upgrading the hardware would be a pain.</li></ul> IMO a Newegg prebuilt is the way to go, but I would say that because I just bought one.[/quote]
