This is for light entry level gaming, but its for my sister so she might only play mine craft, or who knows... the deal is just too good to pass up, or just go with the bit cheaper one?

If you can get your hands on a 1060 6 go for a reasonable price get it, 3 gig maybe, 1050ti if there are no deals, if the 1060 6GB is within $40 msrp or if the 3GB is within $30 msrp

Don't get the 1050 Ti if you're going for a gaming rig and the 1060 3GB is affordable.

Compare specs and see if $15 is worth the lost gigabyte over the better processor

Doesn't matter. The 1050 Ti only offers more VRAM with nearly 40% less power in 1920x1080 gaming.

Great, I love it over my Xbox one, I get 40fps more, I'm sure with the 1060 you would get more than me
