GeForce GTX 1050 ti, will it work?

[Hicman2]

Hiya all,
I am newish to building PCs. I say that as today I shall do my first ever major PC upgrade. I want to get a GTX 1050 4G (haven't decided on clock speed as of yet) as my current AMD 7850ks built in graphics arnt good enough for some games now. I want to know, if I can use them in the same system (I'll use the APU just for CPU stuff) and what my recommended Power Supply should be (my current one is a mesely 250w) I also want to know if everything will work together including Motherbord.
Thanks!

SPECS:
CPU: AMD A10 7850K with built in graphics (I think r7)
RAM: HyperX Fury DDR3 8Gx2
Current Graphics Card: Built in graphics
Motherboard: ASUS A58M-E
Current Power Supply: 250w

If you need any other specs just ask. Also I know I have double the 'Needed Ram' but I heavily mod some games so it helps alot (yes that includes MC, but I'm not a 5yr old peasant lol)

What is your financial budget for the upgrade? You should know that Minecraft is CPU dependent, because it's java based. I'm not sure if mods sway the game to more GPU dependent or not. Yes, you can use a discreet graphics card with an APU.

My budget is around £200 excluding shipping. Now I don't just play MC, I also play other games like Rainbow Six which struggle badly with my built in graphics. Also, does the 1050 ti count as discrete? Thanks!

a 1050 ti is indeed a discrete card

as it is not built into your system = integrated


you are going to need to upgrade the psu as well
