Question gpu for monster hunter world

[SC79]

I am currently looking into what graphics card to get so I can start playing Monster Hunter World but would like some advice. I am about to get an i5-3570k for the cpu and currently have a passively cooled gt1030, I was looking at a gtx1050-ti because it has a low profile version which is a must for me. My question is what is the best gpu I could get while under budget thats still low profile? should I save some money and get the 1050 or go bigger, and where would I get the best price?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Can you please parse the specs to your existing build like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:

Please include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model.

Here are the minimum and recommended specs for the game;

• OS: WINDOWS 10
• Processor: intel Pentium g840
• Memory: 8 GB RAM
• Graphics: GT1030 passivly cooled
• DirectX: don't have I think
• Sound Card: Also not sure

CPU: intel pentium g840
Motherboard: hp 1497 (I think)
Ram: 8gb
SSD/HDD: 500gb
GPU: gt 1030 passively cooled
PSU: 240W I believe

It is a stock hp Compaq pro 6200 sff from 2012 or 2015, aside from the gpu its pretty outdated but I am curious if there is any way to build it

I'd recommend a GTX 1060. You'd get a pretty good deal on Newegg right now as the GPU market's relaxing a bit on there right now.
I'm assuming you play on 1080p. If so, then yes, a GTX 1060 is definitely ideal for you, as it gives you a little bit of wiggle-room in case you wanted to branch into other games later on!
