Need help picking GPU

Chandler_8 · Jul 30, 2017

Alright I already started my Ryzen 3 build. I have been shopping the deals since this is a budget build. I have everything picked out besides my graphics card. This is also my first build. I am looking for suggestions on which GPU to run in the system for around $150. I can spend a little more than that if it is going to be worth it in the long run. I am looking to play games like BF1, CSGO, and Rockleauge. I do like to try new games so I want something that can handle most games at high settings getting around 60 FPS. Please help!

Here is my parts list:

Around 150$ the only option is 1050 ti : https://pcpartpicker.com/product/wrmxFT/evga-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-4gb-acx-20-video-card-04g-p4-6251-kr
It will handle most today games at 60fps

The only video card for $150 right now is the 1050ti. If you can wait a bit the rx570 could be a much better option. With any luck the Vega may shift the bit miners away from the rx570 in the next few days.

So im still kind of new to this, it looks like there is a few different types of the 1050ti. Does it matter which one I pick? What is the difference?

there is only the minor difference of clock speeds and the type of the cooler used by the different manufactures some work great and others just fine but still that does not create much of a difference.just like the other reader who said that if you can wait a bit amd soon will release it's new line of gpu's which should bring more options to the table,right now there is an other decent performing card from nvidia the1060 but it's little expensive but if you are not going to play at higher resolutions than 1050ti will do fine.

You should go with a 1050ti if you ask me and no it mostly doesn't matter which model you pick just don't pick too expensive ones as they usually aren't worth it.The only difference between models is really just the cooling design they use and the clock speed they run at.I would recommend you to go with a dual fan model because of the temperatures and if you ever want to overclock it in the future it will come in handy.If you are not interested in any resolution over 1080p then the 1050ti will be perfect for you.It has the necessary vram for all latest AAA games and it can run all the games you have listed at high settings.

Chandler_8 :

There isn't enough differance to worry about. Some have 1 fan while others have 2 fans with a 6 pin power connector. The 2 fan with 6 pin power connectors are more for overclocking but they tend to not increase FPS as a whole by much. Some of the manufatures like EVGA, ASUS, and MSI have better rep with serving customers. Each card tends to have a DVI, HDMI, and a display port with some have second of one video output.

I recommend this. Any of the GTX 1050Ti's would be great. I just picked up a 1050Ti as a replacement since I sold my other cards with the price inflation. It's a great little performer for the size, power consumption, and price.
