Posted July 28, 2017 Hello Recently I was thinking of upgrading from my intel 4600 graphics, and wanted to know the best card I could get for around $150. I like GeForce and would prefer it if the performance is close, but I can also go for AMD. I was doing a little research myself, and was wanting to go for the RX 470. Any thoughts?

If he can get one then go for it.

Posted July 28, 2017 Author The benchmark between the 780 and 1050 ti were pretty close, and i'd want to go for the 1050 ti since it's a recent card.

Nah it's not worth the extra money for the FTW. The 1050ti doesn't have a heating issue so they basically all overclock about the same. It really comes down to the silicon lottery after that and even then there really isn't that much of a difference between cards.
