Hello world!
My previous gpu died and i'm looking to buy a new one.
My main question is whether the one I'm currently looking at would work/satisfy my needs and preferences AND at the same time i'm looking for recommendations.
Mostly i use my PC for gaming and watching films and youtube, reading ppts and pdfs, no video editing or streaming.
My budget is about220USD 190 USD (could go only a little bit higher).
I'm absolutely fine with gaming at 1080p 30fps on not the absolute highest details (highest minus 1 or 2 (or even -3 aka medium) is fine).
My case is a silent one, 1 ~14cm/5.5inch fan at front (behind a padded door) and ~12cm/4.75inch fan at the back (this one is not covered).
I have never overclocked (frankly i didn't have a reason yet).
Most likely it would help to have a better cooling (double fans?) than stock...
I'd prefer if i could run current games and future games at 1080p 20+fps on at least medium for a few years more (4+).
The one i'm looking at currently is: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti OC 4GB GDDR5 GV-N105TOC-4GD

But if i'm recommended something better/that would suit my needs and preferences better, I'd change it.
If that matters I live in Hungary.
