upgrade to gaming rig

Introduction

When graphics cards become cheaper (and work project ends), then can take pcie 3.0 desktop (HP Pavilion with i7-6700T) to hook up to graphics card. Needs power upgrade

Background

Some work required:

• Need to disassemble old power supply to preserve +12V header, splice/solder into old ATX supply (at least main power connector is in spec)
• Select/purchase affordable GPU. Currently DDR6 shortage causing all graphics cards to be overpriced (2-3x so nothing in budget)
• Procure more memory
• SSD (found old mushkin 240GB drive, but may not be enough)
