    GTX 1060 6 GB or 1050 Ti 4 GB

    Current system: Gigabyte 1060 6 GB Windforce OC, i5 6600 k, 16gb DDR4. Since I don't game a lot I was considering selling my 1060 and getting a 1050 ti. Would I end up regretting it? I'm a casual gaming and am okay with not having the game maxed out. Also I game at 1080p 60hz. Thanks!
