Honestly as well, I'd be nervous about changing the GPU

I'm going to ask a friend if he knows and if I ever do decide to swap it, I'll pay him off to do it for me LOL.

Swapping a GPU is one of the easiest things to do.

RAM is probably the one thing that's easier. 

You just download more RAM right? /Kappa.

Yeah I could probably just watch a Youtube video.

Fuck is RTX 3060 and RTX 4060? Lmao.

And what resolution does my current one offer?

And what resolution do those two offer?

So basically, Nvidia have their 'generations' of graphics cards.
You have one from the 1000 series. (1660 Super)

Then they released the 2000 series, then 3000 series, and most recently 4000 series.

Think of the '60' at the end of 4060 as an indication of tier within that series.

4060
4070
4080
4090

The higher the last two digits, the more powerful, and more expensive you can expect the card to be.
But like your GPU (1660 Super) they some times re-release stronger versions of the cards by adding a "Super" or "Ti" after.

The 3060 and 4060 are among the lower end of their respective series.
However they are quite powerful.

If you're gaming in 1080p or 1440p, you should be fine.

As for resolution, all those cards including yours support 4K if you want that. But the framerate gets lower the higher your resolution and details level.

The difference in fps between your card and 4060 varies depending on the game. But here's an example with Resident Evil 4.

If you have a friend that can do it, that may be safer if you're new to switching out components. But you could always take a look at a tutorial first and see if it seems easy for you or not.

Changing GPU is one of the easist things to do though when it comes to PC building.

So I gather from that, the GPU I have now would struggle on demanding games above 1080p/60fps?

What sort of GPU would I need for something capable of matching Xbox Series X?

How would you rate the rest of the specs?

I honestly just sort of winged this one, found a PC, looked decently powerful, changed a few things and got it, Lol.
