gtx 1050ti

Go to solution Solved by Damascus,

Yup, it'll be fine.  My buddy runs an old i3 and a 1050 ti off of a 5 year old 220w psu.

What power supply does he have?

The GTX 1050ti runs off the power from the motherboard so it isn't super demanding. It will 99% likely work with the board and be just fine.

1050 Tis don't need external power jacks, so it should be fine unless he has a 200W PSU. Open up the PC and look at the label, it will tell you.

Okay, so his PC has an AMD GPU in it. 

1. You'll need to remove that card.

2. Before you remove that card, Use "Display Driver Uninstaller" to remove the AMD Drivers.

3. Yeah it'll work just fine.
