Hello dear fellows,

I'm making a cheap gaming pc, and I can't decide what GPU put in this rig:

CPU: i3 6100

Mobo: Asus H110M-A

RAM: 2*4Gb DDR4 (the cheapest, Corsair/HyperX, depend what cost less)

HDD: Wd Blue 1TB

PSU: Thermaltake Smart SE 530w

Case: Whatever cost less.

 

I have a cap of 600€. So, what GPU should I put in? An RX 470 or a GTX 1050ti? I highly prefer Nvidia over AMD, cause I prefer Nvidia driver and performance over AMD, but I saw benchmark video with a config similar to mine and RX470 dominate, with a lot more fps over the 1050ti.

Also, Asus or Gigabyte? Both 470 or 1050ti.

The 470 is 1 tier above 1050 Ti. 

1050 Ti is similar to 960/R9-380

470 is similar to R9-290/GTX780 Ti/GTX970

 

Asus RX-470 imo.

If you can pick up a 470 with your budget, go for one of those. Better performance/value out of the two.

Should be well under your 600 euro budget no matter which you choose though.

With the 1050 ti I spend like 535€ without the case. The RX470 cost like 20€ more than the 1050ti, so I can put it in.

Ok, now, Asus or Gigabyte? I like them both, what's best?

RX470 is only about 10% slower than RX480, but much much faster than GTX1050 Ti.

 

The Asus RX480 has a triple fan cooler and RGB lighted back plate. While the RX470 has two fans and no back plate. That explains the big difference in price.

Yeah, I know, the Strix RX480. I looked at the Dual fan, the one white color.

This one

 

The MSI Rx480 4Gb costs 251€, so... Also I don't like MSI.
