Hello everyone, just wanted to check if I can run my old RTX 2060 Aero on the new setup. I’m curious about using it for streaming or rendering—maybe something new. This will be my first experience with dual GPUs, so I want to make sure everything works smoothly. I have an SSD from my previous system that I can use too. Also, any tips or advice for using an AMD CPU would be really helpful since this is my first time with it. Thanks!
You can allocate time in 2060 for encoding tasks, though I’m unsure how to proceed (there are likely online guides). For the SSD, you may need to repurpose a SATA cable from your previous setup or the M.2 screw—once you install it, it should function properly. Regarding AMD tips, set the power plan to the performance mode and enable PBO in BIOS; that should suffice.
A few individuals face problems, while most experience none. If you have worries, you can try it in both modes. For the power plan, visit https://asapguide.com/ryzen-balanced/
It seems you're checking if the 850W power supply will work without problems. Let me know if you need help assessing it!
850 is acceptable, particularly because the 2060 won’t ever be completely used. If you were handling something like 2 gamers on one CPU, it would be much closer, though you might likely manage with a 650W unit for this setup (provided the 2060 is just encoding).
