Upgrading graphics card on my Dell G5 5000
Hello
I bought a gaming PC 5 yrs ago which was already built and had graphics card etc installed. I would now like to upgrade the graphics card. The PC box is a Dell G5 5000. I want to make sure before I buy a new graphics card that it will fit my current PC box. My current GPU is a GeForce GTX 1660 Super. I have been in contact with NVIDia and they have recommended a GeForce RTC 4060 given my current PCs configuration, CPU and RAM.
As I didn't build the PC myself I would like help with deciding which graphics card with GeForce RTC 4060 to buy (Asus, Gigabyte, EVGA etc) that will be easy to replace my current graphics card with and will slot in easily to the Dell G5 5000 PC box. Any advice would be welcomed. Thank you

The answer is still the same -- any GPU newer than the one mentioned there will have even more stringent power requirements than the one in the thread.
What you want to do is not going to be easy without replacing many parts.

Will I be able to upgrade my GPU GPU to a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 from a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super. If so which card do you recommend that will fit the box and have same connections.
Thank you
