idk if i should use my motherboard's power or the power supply

I don't believe you get to choose. Pretty sure that 1050 ti models that have a 6 pin PCIe connector require it to be plugged in for them to turn on. And models that don't, well, you just can't plug them in.

 

If you have a PCIe connector on your power supply, get an RX 570 or 470. They will run on a 6 pin connector, even though they have an 8 pin plug on them. It will cost you the same or less, and give you more GPU performance.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

470

The 480 has a 6pin, the weaker gpu shouldnt have more pins.

I could use some help with this!

Sorry, some models. MSI gaming X for example.

1050ti basically doesn't need extra power.

But some with one will not work if you don't plug it in (i use to own one).

Ryzen 5700g @ 4.4ghz all cores | Asrock B550M Steel Legend | 3060 | 2x 16gb Micron E 2666 @ 4200mhz cl16 | 500gb WD SN750 | 12 TB HDD | Deepcool Gammax 400 w/ 2 delta 4000rpm push pull | Antec Neo Eco Zen 500w
