Ive just sold my R7 265. I want new one fast. Mostly for CS:GO.

I was thinking about GTX 1050 Ti does it worth? For me its the best cuz of price. But also i was thinking about GTX 1060 3GB. Its way better or no? Does it worth to pay 50€ more for 1060? Or some other GPUs?

Be cautious of the 1060 3GB. 1) It doesn't match the 1060 6GB in GPU capability, they cut down the 6GB GPU, which is also the reason it only has 3GB of memory on-board. 2) That 3GB of memory can, with some games, be a serious bottleneck at higher graphics settings. Serious enough that the 1050Ti can easily beat it.

If it wasn't for that 3GB limitation and the gimped GPU of the 1060 3GB itself, the 1060 3GB would be better than the 1050Ti... however, for me, a...

I'd rather have a Radeon RX-570 instead of a GTX1060 3GB. Most other GPU match-ups between NVidia and AMD are toss-ups, at least until you hit the GTX1070Ti or GTX1080 level.

Yes but RX-570 is 100€ more expensive than 1050 Ti. So I think i am going to get 1050 Ti one.

 


If you need you card now, no problems. It doesn't help the prices on the AMD cards since crypto-currency miners tend to favor them. If you can survive a little longer with what you got, you can always save up a little more for a better card. CS:GO should be quite fine though with the 1050Ti. It all just depends on your needs... and without the R7 265, I can see an urgency to get a replacement/upgrade.
