I feel you bro. I would recommend you build another 20-30 bucks and buy a 1660ti, as the value to performance ratio, between 1660ti and 1660 is far higher.

If you however, need the GPU RIGHT NOW, ASAP or hell and fire, then 1660 is the gpu to go from me.

Good morning everyone,

im gonna be doing mainly video editing with a side of gaming but since im not really good with this tech stuff i would like to know which card is better for my build.

i was thinking that a 1050 wolud be good enough,my budget is only $250 bucks + taxes and shipping

with nothing more to say i hope you have a nice day

I would definitely go with a B450. And a bit less expensive to get higher frequency RAM

Try finding a higher frequency memory, because it would benefit you a lot.

Get a 7200RPM HDD, any company you like, but 55$ for a 1TB HDD are quite a lot in my perspective of your build

if you can give 20$ more you'll get a lot more value with this, or any variant of a 1660ti that is close to that money range:

if not I would go with a 1660:
