From your other post yes a 1050 would be a good choice.hi guys,
i want to replace my gtx 480 as it is outdated, i was thinking about using my integrated gpu from my 11-500 but want to use a dedicated gpu to be on the safe side.
can anyone recommend me one please?
many thanks
many thanksFrom your other post yes a 1050 would be a good choice.
I would not listen to the guy that said buy a 710.
ok thnak youUm actually in my opnion you should buy one which does not bottleneck with your system, if your CPU is a little bit old or not like powerful enough, then you have no other choice but buy a LOW end GPU, else it would bottleneck the CPU and thatll result in a complete waste of your money.
You may check any bottleneck calculating website on the internet , just select your CPU and then your desired GPU and if it results in a bottleneck, try out other options until you find the perfect one...
Bottleneck websites are pure garbage!ok thnak you
i will look for a bootleneck website now
thank youBottleneck websites are pure garbage!
If you go by then your going to end up spending in todays market about 800 bucks at the least.
The 1050 is about 40% better than your old 480 that you have already stated does everything you need it to do.

This is not the best site but gives you something to look at.

i have read that this gpu can be powered up by the slot but i have seen some close up pictures of the gpu and it has a 6 pin socket for power. do i still need to plug the 6 pin plug or can i still use it just by putting the gpu in the slot?That is the 1050 ti and yes much better than your 480 and only uses about 75 watts.

ok thank youIf the card has a 6-pin connector, it must be populated.
Just leave a bit of slack in the cable it will be fine.ok thank you
would have preferred to just use the slot so i dont risk bending the motherboard with the power cable tugging/pulling on the gpu.
thank youJust leave a bit of slack in the cable it will be fine.
thnak youPrices are quite crazy, not likely to come down.
If you see a 1050 Ti made by a reputable brand for under 150, you should jump on it.
I was looking at the 1050Ti UK Ebay results yesterday, they do pop up from time to time. Even saw an ASUS Cerberus model go recently for under 200, which was a very fancy one (still no idea why they made that..., cheapest 1060 was better)
ok i will stick to 1050 ti, many thanks again for your help.It will cost more money. Plenty of GPUs faster than those two. The rest of the 10 series, the 16 series, the entirety of the 20 series, and the new 30 series. And that is just Nvidia.
i have 200 pound to spend on one, which gpu would you recommend please? or should i get the 1050ti?Still a 1050Ti, an entry level gaming GPU.
many thaks for the suggestion.There seem to be a few RX580 out there for under 200. The occasional RTX 2060.
Either would be a pretty big jump up from a 1050Ti.
