Hello im just wondering what GPU i should buy according to the pricing in my country (Argentina) dont bother searching anything on amazon or what ever cos its not worth it, importing stuff to here is imposibble.. Anyway here is the list.

GTX 1050 2GT LP: ARS $2579; USD $170 (1 year warranty)

GTX 1050 2G OC: ARS $2649; USD $174 (1 year warranty)

GTX 1050ti Gaming X 4gb: ARS: $3599; USD $237 (3 year warranty)

RX460 WINDFORCE OC 4G: ARS: 3089; USD $204 (2 year warranty)

Ty in advance

The 1050 Ti is the best card on the list, but there's no way I'd pay that much more for it(174 vs 237). The percentage of extra cost is far more than the percentage of performance you gain.

So if you need every last bit of performance no matter how much it cost, the 1050 Ti is what you get. Otherwise I'd get the 1050, either one it doesn't matter which. The 460 2gb is not on the list or I'd suggest that one too. No way i'd pay that much for a 4gb 460.

how much is the 470 there?

but out of those the ti is the best card. delivering an average of 10 or so fps more. is that worth the extra $? thats up to you. but it will give you more longevity.

oh that sucks. then yeah the ti is the best choice imo if youre willing to spend the extra $.

and a 3 year vs 1 year warranty is nice if you plan on keeping the card for a while. if not you could always look at the used market... if there is one in Argentina.

Yeah, thanks i thought that the Ti was the best option too, just wanted some feed back because of the $65 price gap between the gtx 1050 and the ti. Used stuff here isn't really the best option here people are big money whores, lol so ima just buy a new one.

Hmm, no for USD $330 i can have a rx 480 or gtx 1060 3gb and also having to spend more money on a PSU so that is completely out of the question.

Remember he's in Argentina where pricing and availability are quite a bit different than other areas.
