Thanks for that and the above. I thought the thermaltake was decent, but seems otherwise. The 4060 will still be a huge upgrade on my current card and hopefully much quieter.

R 7600 and RX 6900xt both OC won't pull 600W from the wall in my setup.
I think you psu should be fine with RX 6750XT?
This psu Has one linie?

Not slightly, it is much better (on power). It is slower than the 6750 XT though, so I'd definitely look to pay close to £250 and not near to £300.

I found one at around £250
And ordered one - will report back after I have it installed.
Houston, we have a problem.
Just inserted my 4060, switched on. All good. Installed NVIDIA drivers and black screen - during the installation. I get no signal detected on screen and the monitor goes into power saving mode.
Have tried 3x with the same results.
Any suggestions?

Reset your CMOS, take the coin battery out of the motherboard for a couple of minutes, put it back in and retry.

Also, did you remove the drivers for the old card first? If not, uninstall those before installing the new ones.
Edit: try this before removing the mobo battery.

Yup, done both of these things and no joy.
You're aware this is often normal for a limited period, right?
Are you using DP or HDMI? You could try switching to the other.
I wasn't... Not at all. I thought it'd be as simple as swapping cards, removing the old driver, installing the new one and bobs your uncle.
Just to be totally clear, what I mean is: while the nvidia driver installs you may lose the picture a few times and that's normal.
What is not normal, is if the picture stays blank forever.
Yeah I'm aware it could flicker. But for several minutes? Surely that's not right.
Absolutely. I had a picture right up until the driver was installing.
There are quite a few different ideas here, might want to have a read:

Definitely worth trying.
Update: ended up taking the PC to the local PC shop and they are sorting it. Apparently a few driver issues and the bios flash I did, didn't quite work.
I also have a corsair 850W PSU... So... Thinking I might return the 4060 for something a bit beefier. Guess it'd be between 6750xt and 4070?
There's not that much difference between a 4060 and a 6750 XT. 4070 is a bigger jump, but it is also around £200 more than a 4060 for a non-Super (£450).
Can you not give it a try first? I think you'll find the 4060 is a decent upgrade on a RX 580 (TPU's GPU database has it as 113% faster).
Fingers crossed!
