I've caught the PC bug again after a few years away. The PC is a decent (this is the guts of it https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/t...ked-discounted-elite-tier-very-fast.18697252/) but hilariously I'm still running an AMD 6950 'GPU', which I just looked and was bought more or less 7 years ago to the day 
Question is, do I need a new PSU to enable a GPU upgrade to something decent (probably a 1060/1070 depending on funds). I have this PSU which is also ancient but has worked flawlessly for years (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/b-gr...certified-modular-power-supply-bg-030-oc.html). Is it capable of powering a modern GPU? I think power wise its fine, but connection wise? Help appreciated.
