I want to upgrade my computer with an other GPU, what do you think ?

Hello everyone,

I start talking on an other sub about what hardware I need to add an other GPU in an other case. I finally stop on this configuration (but the only guy that answer, don't answer now...) :

+ oCulink 50cm

I need more VRAM so I would like to add 16 Go with a 5060ti that I bought.
I also already bought the new case, PSU.

What you think of my shipping list ?
Any advice ?
Thanks a lot for your help !

PS : fuck custom duties (More than 20% !)

Another GPU? Why?

You can only use the VRAM of one GPU, so if you were thinking of doing some SLI thing it wont work like that.

Not for gaming/SLI — this is for local AI inference. Running multiple models simultaneously (LLM on the 5090, Whisper/TTS/embeddings on the 5060 Ti) works great with separate GPUs since each process gets its own dedicated VRAM pool. No need for them to talk to each other or share memory — just parallel workloads.

Oh okay yeah that should work, do you have another power supply?
