ahh i see, lets say he chooses the gtx 1050ti mini, does having the mini version have any advantage compared to the non-mini? (aside frome being compact and small of course) like performance or durability?

Hello guys! so my friend is planning to buy GTX 1050ti and is confused which has better cooling temperature when gaming? Zotac GTX 1050ti OC (dual fan) or 1050ti mini (one fan) when in not overclock mode.

Im using a gtx 1050 ti with an i3-4160, planning to upgrade it to i7-4790k this december, but the problem is all 1080p monitor is way too big, im not used to rolling my neck up and down esp. on fps games (mainly overwatch)

So is there a big difference on 900p (1600x900) & 1080p (1920x1080)? I'm told that the difference is not much on a 19.5 inch monitor. Compared to 720p (1366x768) blurry textures is more noticeable than 900p. As to 900p and 1080p not much.
