looking to pair my i5 6500 with one of the aforementioned GPUs (I know it is not the best CPU to pair with either one of these, but unfortunately my GTX 1060 6GB died on me and I don't have enough dough to build an entirely new system)

the lowest prices for 1660 supers in my country are as follows:
MSI - 22,300 INR
Zotac - 21,500 INR

warranty:
MSI - 3 years
Zotac - 5 years

looking for suggestion of which one to go for?

or would it make more sense to go with a Zotac 1050 ti which is priced at 11,400 INR and build a new system after 2-3 years?

will a 1050 ti be good for that long for newer AAA titles?

Hey man 1050 to is kinda out dated and won't be able to run new AAA titles im also playing with your CPU and 1660 super and the bottleneck is minor so go with the zotac 1660 super

i agree... and yes, the 1660 super will be limited by my 6500 by just a tiny bit, but that is not what I am worried about.. what concerns me is that the 6500 will soon not be enough for newer AAAs and that will leave me with a capable GPU and incapable CPU...

that is what is killing me...
