Is ASUS M11BB Compatible with GTX 1050 ti graphics card

[lickmeandcallmeyourslave]

Hi. I'm new to PC (been a console player) and I'm looking to upgrade my crappy prebuilt tower desktop PC I had bought years before. It is the ASUS M11BB, and after looking at the specifications, I am not very sure that many graphics cards, in particular the GTX1050 TI(which I want) is compatible with this system. So, is it compatible? Is there anything I need to do to get it to work? Like upgrading to a better PSU (my current one is 350 watt.) In addition, I must ask, is the AMD A10-6700 processor going to hinder the performance of the GTX 1050ti? Anyways, it would be a lifesaver if the community could answer my call. Also, if you need more information, answering, or are recommending something, please please say, I will gladly answer and appreciate your interest. Thank you

Here are the specs of this prebuilt PC:
Processor: AMD A10-6700
Graphics: integrated
Power: 350 watt
Motherboard: Asus f2a55-m/m11bb/dp_mb

I can think of no reason you could not install the GTX 1050 Ti and have it work first time, all times. Just be sure to remember there will be 2 sets of video outputs on the back of your PC after installing the new card. One from the iGPU and one from the new 1050 Ti. Don't accidentally plug into the iGPU (integrated video).

Depends on whether the 1050TI you want has a 6-pin or not. If not, it should work. And the A10-6700 is going to hinder it. Id suggest you get a better PSU, and a 1050ti that has a 6-pin cable with it, that way itd definitely work

Thank you, sir. But I am confused at the part where you said the 6 pin will not work, but if I I get the psu, it does work. So that means that if I get a better PSU, I will be able to get the 1050ti, right?

Also, how harshly would my processor bottleneck the graphics card?

Your PSU probably doesnt have a 6-pin connector so it wont work if the card needs one. If you get a new PSU, it will probably have one of those which you can hook up with the GPU. And i dont know how harshly, i think an I5 would be enough to fully utilize the GPU, and your A10 is about half that performance i guess

How different is the 1050 from the 1050 ti in terms of how the CPU bottlenecks the performance. In other words, what is better for my current CPU?

Id say 1050 would be a better fit, but youll still be bottlenecked by the CPU.

Sorry for the trouble by the way. But, how is the 1050 better? Or do you mean that it'll fit in the case better?

I'd stay with the GTX 1050 Ti. Just get one that doesn't require a 6-pin. Most don't.
Example: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487290&cm_re=gts_1050_ti-_-14-487-290-_-Product

What 350W PSU do you have? Most good 350W units have a single 6-pin. If so, then you can run any one you want.

Okay! But I'll upgrade to a new PSU anyways that has 6 pin support.

Have you verified that yours doesn't have one?
