This will be my first legitimate build but being new to this im kind of stuck. My plans right now are
- Msi pro series b250 lga 1151 Mobo
-Intel i3 7100 cpu
-Evga 500w.
Now for the gpus im stuck between
-Zotac geforce gtx 1050ti Overclocked
-Evga gtx 1050ti superclocked
-Zotac geforce gtx 1050ti mini
I know theyre about the same but theres a significant price difference between the 3. Which would be the best gpu of the 3 to get with the Msi motherboard i chose?? I dont want to go over 800 for this build. Any help or ideas?

If there is a significant price difference then get the cheapest one. They all will perform about the same. The only difference is the Zotac with 2 fans will stay cooler so you won't hear the fans. But, if you're gaming with sound you might not hear the fans either way.

*Btw, if you want to save money get a Pentium G4560 or G4600. They have hyper-threading like the i3-7100.

Alright so no real big difference other than the fans and pricing then? The Zotac 1050ti oc is $248.68 but then the Zotac 1050ti mini is $277.74 but they seem to be the exact thing then the Evga superclocked 1050ti is about $234.98. I was just confused what the differences were since theres price gaps between em and which would be the least problematic

Well the clock speeds are different, but that can be negated with using overclocking software to match the speeds if you wanted. But even then the performance difference isn't much.

You say the Zotac OC is less than the Mini? I would get that or if you wanted to spend less the EVGA.
