There is no c+. The reason is that ++ means "increment by 1" in c itself (and many other languages).

Awesome, thanks!

Hmm, is this something I can get an adapter for (not sure if voltage is different for different connectors coming out of the PSU)?

I believe this is my exact PSU: https://www.ipc-computer.eu/laptop-spare-parts/internal-power-supplies/internal-power-supplies-ps-8501-2vb-78891202

Doesn't look like it has 2*8 pin connectors

Edit: actually, it has one 8 and one 6+2 (I assume a split connector I can use in either configuration). WDYT?

Do you mean a new PSU for any future upgrades, or that I'm pushing it a bit hard with the 4070 and it will give out at some point?

I've provided some more details on CPU, memory in a previous reply. Basically it's an i7-9700 with 16GB of RAM.

It does only have a PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, but I think both the 4070 Super and the 4060ti are 4.0 x8, right? So you're saying total bandwidth should be fine?

I think the 4080 is off the table for reasons other than PCI.

As for the PSU, I have a 500W one. It seems like TDP for the 4070 Super is 220W and for the 4060ti is 165W. You're saying 500W should be able to easily support either?

Nvidia recommends 650W and 550W respect, but if it's more of an issue of longevity or limited peak performance I don't mind.

The 4080 Super with a TDP of 320W and recommended 750W is probably too much of a stretch though...

Seems like it's a PCIe 3.0 x16 slot. Do you think I should expect a significant bottleneck here? Enough to make the 4070 Super not worth it compared to the 4060ti?

I tried to figure the measurement the best I could, I hope I'm right. Can't really say regarding cooling, is there really a way to know beforehand?

  • i7-9700
  • 500W
  • 16GB

I'm thinking 4080 will not fit in size, will be too much for my PSU and might hit other bottlenecks like PCI. But 4070 Super is still on the table. WDYT?

Hi everyone,

It's been many years since I've last built a PC from scratch or even upgraded any parts. I've been using a prebuilt Lenovo Legion Cube C530‐19ICB for several years now and I'm generally happy with it mostly because the case fits nicely in my living room cabinet (hooked up to the TV).

I have an option to purchase a new RTX 40 Series card in a few days for a decent price and I'm wondering which of these will be compatible to my existing PC:

  1. 4060Ti (8GB)

  2. 4070 Super

  3. 4080 Super

I assume I need to check dimensions (not sure if everything has a standard like "full height" etc.) and PSU Watts (how strict are these requirements?). Not sure if there's PCI type/width issues or anything else I need to cover, or what do I get the info for both my PC and each card from.

If anyone can help guide me through figuring out which of these cards could be compatible, I'd appreciate it a lot!

Edit: Seems like the 4080 is too much for my current build (card length, PSU, etc.) but both the 4070 and 4060 could work. Thanks everyone for your advice!

Now a real killer, when he picked up the ZF-1, would've immediately asked about the little red button on the bottom of the gun...

Hate to break it to you, but 30 years ago we already had Microsoft Visual C++. These early 80s examples are closer to 40 years ago at this point...
