What's a good match

[Kregsta81]

I want to know if a 1050ti would be a good match for a Ryzen 5 1600x. If not what would be a good match for this CPU?

 

Thx in advance for the advice.

I'd go for an RX 570 or RX 580 myself.

never buy a 1050ti when the rx 570 destroys it and is cheaper

Which 570 or 580 would you get? There are alot to choose from and I have a budget of $200-$225.

Whichever. They should both be available for under $200 if you're in North America. The RX 580 does have about 15% better performance though.

I've seen I can get a Rx 590 for less than $200. Would that go well also?

Depends on the brand, but it is about 10% better performance than the 580.

I'd get a GTX 1660 Super for $229 when it launches in a few days. The regular 1660 is faster than the RX 590 in the techpowerup testsuite and the 1660 Super upgrades the VRAM to GDDR6.

Which means nothing. Performance is one thing, but GDDR6 doesn't magically make one card better.

Honestly I'd buy a used 580. I recently bought one for 75USD and then upgrade when the need arises and spend money on a better cpu or keep it for a future upgrade. 90% of the 580s on the used market still have a bit left of the manufacturers warranty so that is all good if you need to have them look at it if you have issues

 

Also since your getting a beefy video card make sure TO GET A QUALITY POWER SUPPLY FROM A REPUTABLE BRAND. Or you may have some problems or even a fire on your hand.

 

Also these card are physically BIG make sure it fits in your case before buying!

 

Goodluck!
