[jermylarin15]

So I found a cheap graphics card here in philippines. Do you think it was worth it?

which one should I buy?

What's stopping you from buying from a reputable brand like Asus, EVGA, Gigabyte, MSI, PNY, Gainward and the likes? Just the other day I responded to a thread for a user who purchased a Forsa GPU and it was a waste of the end users resources since RMA was literally non existent.

So should I just buy the AFOX GT730 2GB instead?

If it were a real card, the GTX 1050 would be a lot faster than a GT 730. However, that card looks to be fake, and appears to be identical to one someone posted about the other day. A real GTX 1050 would not have a VGA connector or an SLI bridge connector, so it's obviously not the card it claims to be, but probably some older, weaker card that has been re-badged to look like something that it's not. The one that person posted about didn't even work, so it might not even be a functional card.

1050 ti is better. Problem is that the best chips are purchased by the big brands like mentioned above, they are more stable, they can overclock better, they are quiter and they have an RMA policy.

AFOX GT730 2GB so should I buy this one then?

I would not buy a video card from a vendor that also sells baby diapers, I am sorry I cannot take this "pre order 10 days in advance" seriously as we both know that means he is just purchasing cheap knock off video cards from China, and reselling it to you. though probably legal, the video performance will surely be less than up to part to the equivalent properly identified manufacturers.

 

[jermylarin15]

hmm so can anyone recommend me a good and little cheap graphics card?

look at this local hardware store.... you where ready to pay 3,000 for a Chinese video card, now look at the regular prices.

Usually when its too good to be true its too good to be true. Porbably an older model that they hacked and gave it the name 1050 ti to appear on the system. the palit is a legit 1050ti.
