No worries, it's usually the first question to ask when someone's performance is really bad as it happens all the time :)

With that power supply and cpu you can go as big as you like on the graphics card, the 1050ti isn't a massive upgrade from the 580. A decent upgrade, yes, but you could get an RX 480 or 6gb gtx 1060 quite easily


It's Not the 3gb Version, But Yeah I Agree with you I thought it would do better? I have 2 Gpu's Intel Graphics and The NVidia But yep Tried Playing forest and I couldn't even Handle the lag and extremely low Frame rates
 


Apologies I had the Vga Plugged in the whole time :') But still wonder what it would take to run a gtx 1050ti
