Just bought my very first graphic card: 1050 ti. how badly

>>378400019
monitor res?

>>378400019
would have sprung for a 470 or 480 myself desu, depending on your power supply

Card is -ok- for 1080p 60fps gaming. You will likely need to turn settings down though. What CPU?

>>378400019
The 470/570 is much faster for not much more money

>>378400197
i7 920

It's ok and you could carry this GPU in a future build to use temporarily

If you play at 1080p you did not fuck up.

Would a i3 2100 be ok with this card or would it bottleneck?

>>378400371
So you haven't upgraded in close to a decade?

You should have at least a 2500k, you'll probably see CPU bottleneck in a lot of games.

>>378401027
...it's already been a decade. Fuck

>>378401001
Stop being so fucking poor.

You can get a secondhand 2500k and mobo for maybe $130.

I just sold my 3570k for $75

>>378401098
Almost 9 years since release.

>>378401027
i7 920 is legendary CPU, it's good as i5 4460

Not poor anon I dont play pc,not for me anyway
its a family members pc and their kid wants to play overwatch and robolx online

>>378401001
it would be a bottleneck

>>378401798
Cheapest quad-core you can find second hand and a cheap Nvidia card. Heck, throw a used 970 in there.

>>378401112
whats wrong with the 3570k?

>>378400532
this, I got a 1050ti to throw in a hp workstation I got from work. I'm able to play anything at 1080p with max or close to max settings

>>378402342
My mobo was dying, I'm on a piece of shit laptop until Coffee Lake.

>>378402356
I hope you're a sysadmin, or any fucks ups might be blamed on your games/etc

>>378401027
Get a x5650 since you're on lga 1366, look up yo see if your motherboard supports it, my Asus P6T supports it and it's GOAT with 6 cores and 12 threads

>>378400019
You could have gotten RX 570 for 30$ more and had 60% more performance.

>>378402223
Ok will look for the parts anon thanks, hopefully he will love it and enjoy some games

>>378402842
Yeah, the 970 only comes with 3.5 gb of usable vram, but your kids will probably never utilize that at 1080p.

>>378400019
You are fucking retarded, should have gotten a 1060 or a RX480. Despite what the gay memers in this thread told you, you won't be playing any modern games anywhere near 60fps on max settings at 1080p. Even corridor slashers like Dark Souls 3 will make your GPU shit itself.

>>378402996
Pretty easy to do that these days though. My 780 is already showing its age due to the vram being only 3GB. If I were getting a card I'd have to go with over 4GB for sure.
Shame pc prices are high now.

WHY IS EVERYTHING ON NEWEGG OUT OF STOCK

>>378402996
>>378403410
Actually, my bad I didn't notice it was going to be used for games like overwatch or roblox...

Still wouldn't get a 970 just cause of the salt from the 3.5 meme.

>>378403410
I was just going by the games he posted. Can't imagine Overwatch being that taxing on a 970. I agree with you on the 4gb+ for vram, though. Looking to a 1060 6gb for my setup.

>>378403485
Slow sales n shit right now. That's why prices seem a bit higher than normal. Best time to build PCs is usually between summer and winter.

>>378403485
what is?

>>378400019

2007 just called...

They want their card back!

>>378403556
Hope you enjoy the card. I'm gonna hold on to my 780 for another year and wait for the next generation of gpus. When the time comes I'll upgrade the card and monitor.
Sad part is that I have 2 gtx 780s which is essentially useless now. Devs barely ever put sli support into their games anymore. Ended up giving the 2nd card to my brother.

>>378400019
It's a pretty underwhelming card, shoulda spring for a 1060 at the very least if you're at 1080 res.
