New Build! New Enquiry!

[Izzdy]

Budget (including currency): Mostly have been paid for.

Country: Malaysia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming and daily usage

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

 

It have been awhile since the last time I post something in the forum. Its time for PC upgrade. I will salvage the storage, the fans, and etc. for my new build.

 

Parts for New PC (PCPartPicker Link)

 

This is my next build. Now, just waiting for cpu cooler to arrive. I've ordered a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Turbo ARGB. I believe this cooler only available in Asia-Pacific region (as of now, I guess).

 

My question, I have a GTX 1050ti from my previous build. Can I install that gpu also to this build and my 2nd monitor will use that to display.

Will there be any issues?

 

Appreciate any feedback or comments.

 

Regards.

Most GPU's have multiple ports. So if you have a 1070 in your build (according to pcpartpicker), then it will have multiple display outs.

Just use one of these.

Your GPU-Performance will only suffer insignificantly.

 

Adding a second GPU without using a link and without it beeing the same model wouldn't even work, as far as I understand...

If you don't have that case yet get something else it has BAD airflow.

 

I don't see why you would want to do a second gpu in there. It will not give you any extra performance and just sit there generating heat which is already not great in this pc case and using power.

 

Just connect your other display to the new gpu and sell the 1050 or something.

Regarding the case, I've already owned it for almost 3 years. Yeah, the air flow is bad. I just bought it to make sure that I will upgrade my pc sooner or later. That fool from 3 years ago, heh. Maybe, by not putting on the front panel will have better airflow?

 

As for the gpu, maybe out of curiosity I guess. I thought two gpu will share load or something other.

 

Appreciate the feedback tho. Thanks

The 2nd gpu that of not same brand and model will not work as I imagined in my head, I guess.

Without bridge/SLI, I thought that I can use both gpu for 2 monitors. Each monitor hook up to each one.

 

Appreciate the feedback tho. Thanks
