My GPU (Asus GTX580) recently died completely, I've removed it from my system and everything else works fine. I've yet to test the GPU on a other system to see what the specific problem was but in the meantime I need a new GPU for my old system that I still use. Or, do I abandon this system as not worth it? I'd like to keep using it for budget reasons though.
•Former GPU: asus gtx 580
•Mobo: Asus p8z68-v (not pro) only supports ddr3 and apparently only up to 2000mhz
•cpu: intel i5 2500k
•ram: 8gb 2x4gb g.skill ddr3 (the blue ones?)
•hdd: 2x1tb western digital black
•psu: xfx 750w
•heatsink: noctua dh14 or similar
•OS win10 home 64bit
•1x monitor at 1920x1080p but I Did have 2 monitors for ages.
I'd like to squeeze whatever I can from this system, I know it's 10 years old.
I was looking at the gtx1050ti or maybe 1060 if I can find a good price. That's my budget really.r0
Can anyone offer me some advice?
Not sure whether to stick in a cheaper gpu or start over.
Thanks
