It is time to get a new one. let the old one rest....

However, if u get the new 1, ensure ur PSU is able to support the power coz newer AMD GPU draws more power....

oh my, i tot get a new GPU plug n play, if need to change the PSU maybe I need help

I need to get someone to do an overhual, any place to recommend? expected cost?

what do you meant by "While your CPU and motherboard are release in 2014 so the GPU is much data than the CPU + mobo."

Originally built at a shop. over the years changed motherboard once. :s22:

oh my so need to change PSU or at least new cables for modern GPU.

What I meant is the GPU is much older than your CPU and mobo.
Anyway put that aside.
Which GPU do you intend to change?

Can bring down to any shop at Sim Lim Square to change parts or do a overhaul.
Not sure about charges you have to check with them.

Bette not just say "any shop". That makes him a walking carrot

If i can survive with my old gpu, any new 1 already an upgrade haha

Got ppl recommended RX580, but read that it is very hot?

What do you recommend? Games usually played are blizzard games, steam games more 2D orientated like bastion, hades type.

Depends on which gpu u prefer? ur budget?

Of coz higher performance come with a price. For mid range one like RTX2060 will cost u $500 above easily

u can try infinity computer at lvl 4. They do provide on spot checking service.

Probably $250 for GPU. Geforce, which 1?

but has to get the PSU changed
I believe there is no need to change your PSU (620W) as it is more than enough to power any GPU at $250 budget range.

Ah just notice my power cable maybe have the suitable like the RX580 need a 8 pin connection? Saw it on youtube.

Mean I need to change PSU?

Sent from Samsung SM-N975F using GAGT

If do not have 8-pin, just get a 6 to 8 pin (6+2) pin cable will do.

Need to update any driver? For the GPU and motherboard/BIOS?
