GTX 1050 ok in 2018?

[magiccupboard]

So my gtx 460 after working for 8 years finally died and I ordered an EVGA 1050 OC

I want to play games like PUBG, Fortnite, Warframe, Fallout 4 and Black Desert Online on at least mid-high setting on a 1080p monitor.

Will the EVGA GTX 1050 suit my needs or with some tweaking?

You should have asked about this before buying the card really

I would recommend at least  1050TI to run at near 60fps at mid to high settings as the 2gb variant would most likely run out of VRAM and unless you have a lot of really fast system ram this will result in a reduction of performance

Like most of the other people here, I would recommend a 1050Ti. And as @WhisperingKnickers said, this would've been the question to ask before buying the card.

All but PUBG. For mid-high 1080p even a 1060 6gb will see dips below 60fps, while a 1050 wont even reach 50fps average.

i toyed with the idea of a 1050 ti build with all the messed up prices, it'd be decent atm

GTX 960 second hand.

it will run those game but your setting will have to be turned down, i have a 750ti and i can run similar games but on low setting to get about 60 fps

I have it, and runs everything I want at 60fps (overwatch, fortnight, pubg, cs, dark souls 3) on medium to high settings. 

[PSP.]

for 60hz yes 

i have 144hz monitor and gtx 1060 6gb

sometimes fps lower than 144hz 

maybe i will buy 1070 between 1080ti

[Gyuwona]

I think you should have gone used, buy a 980 maybe

Well the reason I got the GTX 1050 is because the ti variant was overpriced whilst my budget was £100 pounds, I thought it would be a decent upgrade from the GTX 460. 1050 Ti costs 150 - 250 pounds in my country

 

Edit: I got the 1050 for £110
