Picking GPU: Does company matter?

[mark_p8]

So when you pick, for example a GTX 1050Ti, does the company who sells it matters? Like, ASUS, MSI etc... Besides on cooling, what other benefit do we get depending on the company who sells it?

 

On the other note, inno3d is the cheapest GTX 1050Ti 4gb in my country, is this good?

Inno3d is good. Just get that.

different customer support if your card has issues, some companies have a reputation for being really bad at customer service while others have a good rep

Not really, performance will be very similar between all. Just get whichever is cheapest or you like the most.

Inno3D should be fine.

 

Check out prices for the RX 470, it's a 25% faster card and if the cost difference is 15% or less, then it's a much better value.

Otherwise all I can say is, don't worry too much about manufacturer, but if you care about customer service don't buy ASUS or Gigabyte. MSI is fine, EVGA is great customer service wise. Inno3d I don't know, but they can't be worse than ASUS.

Thanks all for your feedbacks  That's all what I need to know

different companies have different designs and some people have preferences. there are cards that have different colours and cooling solutions and you just pick what you like comparing the price as well an find the best for you. also warranty is a benefit so longer warranties are a plus as well. dont worry too much about the brand for budget cards as the bigger brands charge more.

RX 470 is 32.2% pricier than the GTX 1050ti

Thanks. And also, thanks for pointing out the company that I should avoid. ASUS price are so high in here.

Only your preference. After a while of using components you will know which ones to stay away from. My bad manufacturer is MSI. Works great for a lot of people but I've ran into nothing but issues. EVGA and Asus have been solid for me over the years.

yeah Asus has been great for me as well, but I haven't had to deal with customer support which is what people always complain about lol
