Hey guys, I'm currently considering upgrading my gpu, a GTX 760 2GB VRAM, and I was hoping for you guys to give me some suggestions based on my specs below, as I would like to run titles such as Forza Horizon 3 on a decent setting at 1080p min. (I've been looking at the GTX 1050Ti). :)

 

CPU: Intel i3-6100 @ 3.7GHZ - LGA 1151

GPU: Gigabyte GTX 760 2GB

Motherboard: MSI H110M - LGA 1151

RAM: Corsair Vengence 16GB DDR4 @ 2666 MHz

Storage: 2 SSDs and 2 HDDs (total 1.25 TB)

PSU: EVGA 500W 80+ Bronze (Non-Modular)

Case: NZXT S340 Mid-Tower

 

Any Questions? Please Ask Away!

Check the used market for 980's or 980Ti. I've got my 980 Classified for a decent price. They are much better than 1050ti

For Forza Horizon 3 the 1050ti is good enough. In my situation the CPU bottlenecks the GPU on medium to high settings. All in all, 1050ti is a good enough.

ps: add me on forza xD  gamertag: xR3ep3rx
