I had some really bad graphics cards and bought new ones for Christmas. I didn’t do enough research, and since I’m only 13, I’m not sure how to set them up properly. The PC is pretty old too, and I got the cards from my grandpa.

It's clear you're engaged and eager to learn. Unfortunately, it appears many young people today aren't motivated enough and prefer using gadgets without needing any real understanding of how they work.

Here’s a rephrased version of your text:

The main takeaway is to research first and then verify when you began using it. It’s interesting how the internet works—posting incorrect information often leads to more engagement than correct posts, usually. Before diving into this setup, let me clarify the purpose here. Are you interested in playing modern games on it? Your old 460 model is quite outdated and hasn’t been a capable gaming PC since around 2016/2017 for AAA titles. What graphics card did you install? The small, lower-end PSU can only support slots without extra PCIe cables safely. Don’t worry about learning this—it’s just a fun project. This machine is essentially junk, but it makes a great learning tool if you’re interested in PCs. I started at 11 with three old Pentium 4 Dell computers my dad found in a workplace electronics bin. YouTube was still new, and we didn’t have reliable internet access, so through searching and forums, I managed to fix two-thirds of the issues. A lot of mistakes were made, but it was enjoyable. This setup is similar—mostly systems you can get for free or almost free today, making it a nice tinkering opportunity without spending much or expecting too much, given its age (around 13-14 years old).
