Hey guys!

I recently purchased an Intel i5 6600k and a 1050 ti (gigabyte).

I'm curious as to how it may perform with some of the most demanding games I have.

(Overwatch, Black Desert Online, Rainbow Six Siege, GTA5, or games of similar requirements.)

SIDE NOTE: Please don't jabber on about how a 1060 or 970 is a better choice. I already have the 1050 and I'm sticking with it, however dumb I feel about the purchase. Thanks.

Edit: I had failed to mention I'm in the process of putting my rig together. First budget build. :)

Your best bet is to google 1050 ti review and scroll thru the charts:
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti,4787-4.html

It does pretty well in a lot of games, not so well in others without turning down settings to medium.

I wouldn't use 6600k and budget build in the same sentence. Thats second-stongest quad core around and not cheap. I understand the 1050ti is a done deal, but for the future I would always spend at least as much on the gpu as the cpu - normally a lot more. Helps to come here and ask for build to meet your budget - keeps the build balanced normally.

Oh sorry another thing I failed to mention. My buddy sold me the 6600k for $130 since he was upgrading to an i7.
