GTX 1050ti or RX460

[Aaron McCotton]

Greetings people on the internet! I hope you guys can help me.

 

So I recently built a pc, here's the spec:

 

Processor: AMD A8-7600

HSF: DeepCool Gammaxx 400

Motherboard: MSI A78M-E35 V2

Powersupply: Corsair VS450

RAM: 8GB 1600MHz.

 

(and the rest, I suppose isnt relevant to the topic)

 

And I was wondering, which graphics card that suit my pc. I'm planning to go with GTX1050ti from Zotac or RX460 from Sapphire.

Note that I'm not always use the GPU for gaming, but sometimes content creating as well. And for gaming, I'm fancy just 1080p. Also, I'm not planning to sell/change my rig at the moment.

 

So if any of you would kindly help me choosing a GPU, that would be much appreciated. Thank you! :-)

1050 Ti will perform better, but your CPU may hold it back.

1050 Ti is better, should cost more too. If same price, 1050 Ti all the way

 

Maybe you could save up for a better card? You can get much better for $170 in the form of RX 470

pick the 1050ti if you use premier because it utilize cuda cores

If you're looking forward to overclocking your CPU I wouldn't with that power supply, its not the greatest. 

 

Also 1050 TI is great,  but the RX470 is the best price/performer after the price drop right now.

Monitor? Got the freesyncs? Get amd if you have freesync

Thankyou for your advice. Another question, will the bottlenecking noticable in most games? Or will it only noticable in a game that cpu demanding?

Well thank you my good Sir. Yes, I actually use premier and after effects every once in a while.

In CPU intensive games it will be noticeable.

Thank you for your advice. No, I don't have any plan to overclock my CPU. Overclocking the GPU, maybe. But definitely not for the CPU.

Not worth it for the price over the 470.
