Best GPU for this build?

Guest · Sep 1, 2017

Gigabyte GA-B250M-D3H
Intel Pentium G4560 @ 3.50 GHz
8x1 GB DDR4 RAM 2400 MT/s
1TBB 3.5' GB HDD
EVGA 500 W

Not planning on overclocking or anything.

Preferably a budget GPU that will run well, and does not create a bottleneck in my system. I just need something that can give my PC a little boost, as the Intel HD 610 iGPU in my CPU is not ideal.

A 1050ti is probably the way to go. While the RX 470/570 is a nice GPU, it's damn hard to find at a reasonable price right now.

The answer to this question is primarily dependent on monitor resolution. For a satisfactory experience subject to budget limitations at 1080p, I don't like to see anyone go below a GTX 1060 3GB

Changing your gpu wont boost your pc your running 1 stick of 8 gig ram now add a second stick you would run dual channel and that would speed it up some the onboard gpu from intel! isnt using much of your resources mem wise... But if you must 1050 would be a nice add on. But you be better off with a memory upgrade first then cpu then gpu..

JackNaylorPE :

I'd disagree the 1050 Ti is still great at 1080P. Just depends on what your needs are. You don't always have to use ultra settings.

Yes, I'm planning on getting another 8 GB stick eventually. My CPU usage really doesn't get past 50%, it usually stays around 20%. RAM is mostly what is always being used.

If you really need just a little boost from Intel HD 610 iGPU then you should know that even a 70 bucks gt1030 still is a lot more than a little boost...

It's not a judgment based upon what ya can live with but what you get or don't get when ya consider moving up one level. The 1060 6Gb is 74% faster than the 1050 Ti ... that's double the increase in performance between tiers in the entire nVidia lineup. Whenever the performance increase is bigger than the cost increase, it's kinda "no brainer" territory ... but only if ya can swing the cost increase of course.

The 3 GB 1060 represented about a 30% price increase for a 68% increase in performance ... problem is almost nobody has them in stock anymore... and those that due have them at ridiculous prices

The 570 is a great card, it crushes the 1050 Ti, but at $350, for far less you could have a 1060 6GB which is a lot faster, has a lot more OC headroom, lower power, lower heat, lower sound and $50 or more less.
