graphic card crisis!!!!!!

[vamsi5349]

prices of graphic cards[both amd and nvidia] in india are sky high.i am currently gaming on a hp laptop with i3 5010 cpu and radeon m330 2gb gpu with 8gb single stick ram and 1tb hdd.(max 55fps on assasins creed black flag and 40fps on arkham origins at medium settings)

i am planning to build a gaming pc and selected i5 7400 as my cpu.it costed me 17,500rupees. i thought of pairing it with a 1060ti 3gb but the computer guy said it wasnt worth the money(22000rupees)and the reveiws on net were mixed.help me out guys

The 1060 3GB wasn't favoured due to having fewer cores than 6GB version, as well as the lower ram. What else is in your price range? Can you stretch to a 6GB model? Otherwise you might consider used cards if available, how are 970 and 980 cards priced?

I would say the ttc 1060 3gb isn't as good as the ttc 1060 6gb for sure but it isn't a bad card by any means. It just isn't priced right. If the card is priced right it is a very decent 1080p gpu. I would say it's probably pretty comparable  to the gtx 970 in performance.

There is no 1060 ti but your new build compared to your laptop in a big improvement and games would run better it would be smarter to stretch and get a 6gb card but anything is a upgrade from the laptop
