What's the power supply? 6750XT actually has a higher TDP than something like a 4070 Super, even though you'd need the adapter for a 12vhpwr card. That would be quite a bit better performance than a 6750XT.

Yeah, you'll be fine with a 4070 Super and that PSU. Weird that you'd only have a 8+6pin though.

Do some 4070 Super cards actually use the 8/6 pin connectors? I am not a fan of the new connectors. That said, either 4070 Super or 6750XT are decent choices, and should work with your PSU, assuming it is in good condition, depending on CPU possibly. Of course the 4070 Super likely will cost more.

It's Lenovo. Their 900w power supply has 2 8 pins but the 650w only 6/8. I'm configuring a machine for someone and was wondering what the max GPU would be.
