Posted March 21, 2019 I have a 1050ti , ryzen 1300x and single channel 8gb of ram . I was thinking of geting a rx 570 but would be getting 8gb more ram be better since i have a ryzen cpu . What would be the best option here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted March 21, 2019 dual channel ram would be a decent upgrade 570 and 1050ti are pretty similar so if you are gonna upgrade your gpu you should go with something a little better ex. 580-1660 range also get a ssd if you dont have one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 21, 2019 Dual channel RAM is always ideal. As long as your 1050Ti is running ok, I don't see why you shouldn't go up to dual channel memory. On Ryzen, dual channel can give you sizable fps increases; RAM speed also helps significantly. What's your budget and what speed of RAM do you have now?

OP: pick up another stick of Ram and either a rx 570, rx 580, or gtx 1660 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After this upgrade (if i get ram) i will have to wait 4 months till i get enough money to get the 570 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the US, you can get a 2x8 kit of G.Skill 3000Mhz for $90 USD; a single G.Skill 3000Mhz kit might fit in your budget, I'd shop around. Though I might get a 2x4 if I were you, your current RAM might not OC to 3000Mhz.
