Best Graphics Card for Watching 1080p Movies and Gaming

[Allen Clavecillas 02]

My Build:
Pentium G4600
Gigabyte H110M-H DDR4
4GB 2400mhz DDR4 Adata
160GB Hitachi
Corsair VS450 PSU
Tecware Quad Cube

Idk which graphics card to buy,
Gt1030, rx550 or just a GTX1050
Just for Mid Settings on games
And watching 1080p movies on a 19" 1920 x 1080 Monitor.

If you’re gaming then the 1030 should be cut from your list. It’s more of an HTPC card. I would suggest the 1050 or 1050ti if you can fit it into your budget. The 550 would be ok but it falls short of the 1050.

Depends on your budget, if you're gaming I would say GTX1050 or RX560 or if you can stretch to it GTX1050Ti

Just for clarity you need dedicated GPU for gaming only. Pentium have enough power on integrated for moves in 1080
just as Jwpanz I would look at 1050 or 1050ti, but 1050 TI would work A LOT BETTER with 8GB ram, and that might be a budget problem.

The 1050 is the best out of the ones you listed. Another problem you will have is the 4gb of ram. For any recent game that s simply not enough to play it without issues.

I agree 1050 for gpu and add 4GB of ram on your system
