Is a 1050Ti Strix Graphics Card for $133 a good deal?

Connor2803

Found a listing on Craigslist for a 1050Ti for $133, surely that's a good deal as they're like $350 on Amazon.

They are not actually $350 on amazon, there are various reasons why some sellers put a ridiculous price on an item instead of just marking it as out of stock. You could get a much better deal on other cards, especially if you buy from the second hand market.

USD? No, it's a horrible deal. You can probably get a used RX 570 for even less and it'll blow the socks off a 1050Ti.

The only reason it'd be this expensive if you were to buy it from retailers is because they're old, discontinued, and actually they might just be out of stock in reality.

So if I was going for a RX570, would a Sapphire Pulse be a good choice?

The Sapphire Pulse would be a good option, yes.

Graphics cards are in a weird spot today, with prices being overall too high. If you can hold off buying one, I'd do it. A 1050Ti for 133 dollar sounds overpriced, I got mine for 80 euro's late 2018. So i really wouldn't pay that kind of money for a used one. You might find new GTX 1650's for that price or a little bit more expensive.
