[SOLVED] Selling my R9 280X and getting GTX 1050. Is that good idea?

[yullbarez]

Hi, i have an R9 280X Tri-X OC 3GB GDDR5 384-Bit model GPU. I've applied new fans and thermal paste on it.

And, i'm thinking about selling it and buying much newer and less power hungry card like GTX 1050.

Is this an good idea?

Thanks in advance and have a good day.

Not sure I would go lower than a 1050 ti if I were you.

No.

No, the GTX1050 is not as strong as the R9-280.
Something like a GTX1650 super would be a decent upgrade.
