Shorted GPU help

[dragoshhh]

Okay , so my Gpu got shorted a few days ago , gave it to a repair center they said that they can try to repair it, so my question is : Is it worth it repairing the GPU? Will it work properly like it was working or should I move on and buy a new one?
Thanks,

Sorry my english is bad

Ummm what's the GPU?

 

[Ubrales]

Shorting means something burned out. GPUs are generally not repairable - replace it. Get a newer generation GPU if your PSU will handle the power requirement.

It shorted because of a PSU fault , so I'm planning to get a new GPU and PSU
But they said if I don't want to repair it they can buy it from me , that was kinda suspicios ..

Yes suspicious! If you are handy with repair stuff, try and do it yourself, Worth trying!

Yes, that will work - here are the specs and power requirements - https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/products/10series/geforce-gtx-1050/

http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=100-W1-0430-KR - 34 Amps on the 12V rail. Fine.

Is the the 1050Ti worth it (palit version) ?

 

[Ubrales]

Worth it? Yes - and it depends on your budget. Of course there are GPUs with better performance, and they cost more and may reuire a PSU with more power.

The GTX 1050Ti will work well for your needs.

Well ,PC won't start while GPU is connected ..
Now I learned my lesson : Never use crap PSU's...

 

[Ubrales]

Yes the PSU is a critical part of the computer. Get a good quality PSU with about 25% (or more) more power than your calculated requirements.

I use this list as a guide - http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

Get a PSU from Tier 1 or Tier 2.

My psu on the 12v rail with 20amps works fine with a 1050 ti
