Question I9 9900k with a 1050ti

[mystic_mul]

This is probably a stupid question to ask but imma do it anyway, right so basically I'm building a new PC my current PC is a i5 8600k and a 1050ti my new PC is gonna be a i9 9900k and a rtx 2080 basically what I wanna ask is I'm ordering my cpu in the coming days and won't be ordering my graphics card for a few weeks so I'm asking will I be able to just chuck my 1050ti into the new system and not have any problems? I have everything for my new PC just not the cpu and gpu. Any help is much appreciated

Yup you will be able to use your 1050ti with 9900k. It will be a bit imbalanced in the meantime but you can install the nvidia drivers and use the pc for whatever you need. I would wipe the drivers using ddu before installing the rtx, even though the drivers should be compatible with both.

I do not see any problems with that until you get your new GPU everything will still work just that you have more speed on the cpu.

If the mobo is ment for 8th gen the motherboard will need a bios update for 9th gen.
