If you wanna get a gtx 1050ti, buy a used 4gb amd r9 270x. It has more shaders, texture units, longer driver life, and has the same type and amount of vram. plus, you save on average 40 to 50 uSD if you buy ebay

4GB R9 270X cards are not super common though, most are 2GB cards.

Shouldn't be hard to find one though, takes like 3 min at most

On the second hand market where I live I found 14 270X cards, only one was the 4GB version. They were asking 125 euros for it though, 1050 Ti (4GB) cards are roughly 195 euros.

plus 1050 ti outperforms a 270x by a considerable margin.

For the price of a 1050ti you can find used 960s, 970s, 7970s, 280xs which all perform better then a 270x.
