Hi, I have the following PC under my TV right now: Ryzen 5 2400G + GIGABYTE GA-AB350N-Gaming board Geforce GTX 1050 Ti 8 GB RAM, some kinda Mini-ITX case, small 300W PSU I'm buying a cheap 4K display, and at some point I'll be upgrading the PC to play 4K games. If I want to play Red Dead II, The Outer Worlds, and various Steam titles, do I need to upgrade everything, or could I consider keeping the CPU and mobo? If it would make more sense to upgrade a few months down the road, when some new, good-value card comes out, that's fine too.

Stickman posted:You could keep transfer the cpu and mobo and they'll be mostly okay. The 2400g might have some frame pacing issues with more demanding games, though, and probably moreso in the coming years. The motherboard would be okay for a 2600, 3600, or even a stock 3700x but I wouldn't try to run anything more demanding on it. For 4k/60Hz you shouldn't need anything more demanding, though! Thank you. I figure I will invest a little to run most games at 1440p, though RDR2 is likely staying at 1080p until I can get a next-gen GPU.

I bought a GTX 1060 so I needed a new PSU. Got a Cooler Master Elite 130, 430W. The SATA power connectors don't seem like they want to connect to my SATA drives though. I feel like the connector is the right shape but it seems like something is physically blocking the connector when I try to plug any of the power connectors into my drives. Am I overlooking something?
