tnx for the extra clarification and the tips, im already using hdmi so i should be good! Not sure what u mean with playing PS4 games, im going to look into it since u sparked some intrested mentioning it.

thank you so much ! cant really find your post where u talked about having a 1650, but u were running that 1650 is legacy too right ? Cant find that 1050 for sale over here, but i did find the 1650 so il probably be picking that one up.

yea my bad, i got confused with multiple forums because i tried to gather as much info as i could.

Someone just brought to my attention that the GTX1050ti I got in theory should work, it was a Gigabyte 1050ti and for them, it works in on pci 1.0 in legacy bios. In other forums I've found I'm not the only who has/had this issue and there is no clear answer to which cards will work. They just...

That's what I did today, they tested the card in another system, and it worked. Then they told me it wasn't compatible and I ended up getting a refund. With that info I jumped back on here and started a new thread asking to clear things up a bit (I'd like to link u the new thread but idk how...

the GTX 1650 was actually my first pick before i realized it would bottleneck with this cpu, from what people told me the gtx 1050ti was my best bet. its still unclear to me what other problems i could encounter besides bottlenecking. do you think its a good idea to get the 1650 and accept im...

The 970 died, replaced it with a second hand AMD R7970 LIGHTNING but that one broke after after a month (this all happend during the GPU crisis) got suspicious of the powersuply so went for cards that draw power from the motherboard but thats an whole other topic to get into. also put me off...

sorry i have to ask for clarification on this but if i understand it correctly i should look for a card that has switchable vbios and those could work ? edit nevermind you already answerd that question, didnt see it

Thank you ! u made it make sense for me now, i bought it with a GTX 970 so im assuming the 900 range were the last that are compatible. Any newer cards that could be comptatible or should i focus on the secondhand markt ?

Long story short i bought a GTX 1050TI to replace my gt 1030 in my old system with a asrock 980DE3/U3S3 motherboard. Tried everything but couldnt get it to work, ive went to return it to the shop where i bought it and they tried to figure out why it wasnt working. conclusion by them, motherboard...

little update: i went to return it and they did some more troubleshooting for me, answer i got was that the Asrock 980DE3/U3S3 motherboard i have its pci slot doesnt support the card. weird, the GTX 1050ti is a PCI-e 3.0 x16 and the motherboard is a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot (PCIE3 @ x16 mode)...

Thank you, you are right, I've probably tried everything I could. I just wanted to make sure it couldn't be anything else because I'm not in the mood for the lengthy process of trying to get a replacement for it. One last quick question, I'm assuming the both your gt 1030 and 1050ti draw their...

I will, I'm just trying to do some troubleshooting before I do. I know I can probably get a replacement, but what if I end up with the same issues again. And i don't have another PC to test the GPU on. Also since the box was so well packaged i figure the damage during transport might not be the...

it was brand new, and i know i didn't have have to remove the drivers but people recommended me to give it a try.

no, the box the GPU was in wasnt opend and the GPU it self was still in a seald bag. its just that the bigger box it was maild with clearly was either damaged or opend and got taped together again by de mail company.
