Question from Koby_1 : "Repost: gtx 1050 ti with new mobo"
Koby_1 :
So, I got a gtx 1050 ti ssc and put it into my current h81m-hds asrock mobo and it didn't even recognize it. So, I need a new mobo to fit with all my old hardware and the new 1050. I have a list i put into pc part picker and it says it's compatible but I'm unsure. Mainly because of operating system. I have a Windows 7 installation disc and product key and on my current mobo i have the free Windows 10 upgrade. Now one, I'm not sure how to reinstall Windows 10 on a new mobo and something about a legacy bios and not working with the new cards. I really don't know about that and would really like to know if there will be any compatibility issues not known by pc part picker. Essentially, I want to make sure gtx 1050 ti ssc work for as low of a cost as possible.
Build:
- Intel core i3 4160
- Asrock h97 anniversary ATX lga 1150 (new mobo)
- Crucial ballistix sport 2x4gb ram
- WD caviar blue 1 tb 3.5" 7200 rpm
- Evga GeForce gtx 1050 ti ssc 4 gb gaming acx 3.0
- Cooler master n400 atx mid tower case
- Evga 500w 80+ bronze atx psu
- Asus drw-24b1st optical drive
