Is it worth spending more on a GTX 1060

I'm building a pc soon and I was going to use a 1050ti, but I'm not sure if it's worth it to go for the 1060 instead.

If you can find a 1060 fir a reasonable price then yes, however 1050tis are about as high as you can go and not be screwed over because of bitcoin miners messing up the market.

it depends on what games you are playing. however, a 1060 6gb is quite a bit better then a 1050 ti 4gb. the 3gb model is also better... but if it's a big price difference, it may not be worth it.

If you consider the 1060 6 GB as a 100 points.
Then the 1050 Ti is around 60 points.
SO keep that in mind when comparing their prices and deciding what to get. Also it will depend on how much FPS you want at a specific resolution with your preferred settings in the games you play. Though if you're wondering 1080p@High Settings 50-60 FPS is the optimal experience. Not ULTRA settings.

Thanks guys, will the 1050ti run games like overwatch at around 60fps in 1080p?

Yeah no problem. At High settings you'll get over 70. Around 60 at EPIC.
