[WolfLoverPro]

MY SPECS NOW

 

i5 4690 3.5g

GTX 1050 2GB PALIT

8GB RAM IDK WHAT DDR ?

XFX XT 500w

 

YEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

shit lol

 

anyway i want to know beacuse ..... game debate says i can run assassins creed origins on bloody medium or high HAHAHHAHAHH ... HAHAH ............ AHHHAHHHHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHH

 

I CANT RUN IT ON LOW WITHOUT extreme unplayable lag so wtf is it talking about ? stupid i even have it on 1366 768 AND ITS CLAIMING 1080p medium hahahahhhHAHAHHAHAHhhAHHhhaHHAHAHHAHAhhah

 

anyway.... why is it liing to my ass? LOL

 

but my main question anyway is

Is it worth upgrading to a 1060 NOW 2018 YES october YES even tho new cards came out BUT heres the catach

 

 

reason i cant get better value for money aka buy the new cards I HAVE ONLY GOT A BUDGET OF MAX MAX MAX of £250 absolute max ;{

 

btw can someone tell me the differences between these THREE cards beacuse there all literally no joke the same so why are they  cheaper and stuff  how do i know what one to pick ?

Chill on the caps and random garbage lmao

 

If a GTX 1060 6GB is the best you can get, then get it. It'll destroy your shitty little GTX 1050 2GB.

 

The Zotac and EVGA cards are basically the same. I'd personally go with the EVGA card, or a better model from EVGA, since their support and quality are quite high up there in terms of aftermarket GPUs.

 

I wouldn't bother with the Palit cards.

Get a used 780 Ti or 970 to save some money!

[zombienerd]

I'd say you should bump up your PSU a bit, and pick up a used R9 390  8gb off eBay.  8GB of GDDR5 for $100-$130, and will beat the 1060 in higher resolutions and settings because of the extra VRAM.  They are pretty close when matched with VRAM, but the 1060 has a slight edge.  

 

However, you save a lot of cash, even when figuring in the new power supply.

 

Or, buy two of them and have 1080 performance in a handful of games, 1070 performance in others, and at worst, 1060 performance.

[Jurrunio]

seeing that 980 goes slightly faster than 1060 6gb, I'd get that used instead.

 

Otherwise, the Palit card is the best

^^^^^ listen to everything he says. Also, if you can shell out a couple extra bucks, get a dual fan 1060 6gb. It'll prevent any thermal issues. I have an Asus 1060 6GB dual fan and it's great. It actually runs better than what shows on userbenchmark, but that could be cuz of my processor as well

idk if it will fit or not ? also i need it to use the same as my current 1050 you know Uhhhh pcie ? i think its called right? just uses that sa power but idk if it will fit into my board a dual or actaullt... idk if a 1060 will XDD

Between 1060s, I just looked at heatsink size. The bigger, the more cooling.

like i said to to thingy XDDD i cant remeber i mean i could scroll up but uh .... EH

 

idk if it will fit into my uh case or slot? beacuse well.... at least i THINK the 1060 will fit in to my case and also fits into same slot right as my 1050?? it dont need any other power or slot size does it ?

 

im sure thats 1 reason is the fact that it will just replace my 1050 literally

like take out my 1050 then put my 1060 in literally without connect anything it just slots same as 1050 right?> please say they do

 

and dual fans idk ive never owned a dual fan so idk size or port like 1050 uses pice only right>

all 1060s need a extra PCIe power cable

 

and you should upgrade the power supply first if it doesnt have one.

 

whether your 1060 fits depends on the case.

Oh shit what> i need a better psu ................................................... well uh ........ great maybe i cant be bothered XD only cuz ill have to buy yet another psu ffs

 

i thought they just slot intot the same slot as 1050? mine has no cables just slotted into the uh motherboard so i need cables ............ UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Tristerin]

GTX 1050 mini and GTX 1060 mini are the same size, the biggest difference as noted above is the power requirement.  GTX 1050 pulls the power it needs from the PCIE slot itself.  While the GTX 1060 requires the PCIE slots power and an additional rail from the PSU to power it.

ow DAMMIT ;{

 

well  i kinda dont wanna buy new psu so if i buy 1060 6gb MINI i can use same psu SAME port NO cables right ? thats perfect XDDD

 

 

CAN GTX 1060 6gb MINI !! run ORIGINS , forza  horizon 3 and 4 ON HIGH at least? or 1366 at 1080p ?

Your PSU is fine, even daisychaining some molex power to 6 or 8 pin (whatever the 1060 needs) or even SATA power works.  I can run a GTX 1060 on a 320w PSU with an i5 3470 (at 100% load the PSU is at 100% load) and its pulling from 2 diff SATA rails for the extra power.

No, you will need cables. What power supply are you using, is it some from old prebuilt office PC?

Everyone here disses PSU's like no tomorrow.  I still cant tell why other than - OF COURSE THERE ARE BETTER THINGS ON THE MARKET THAN LAST YEARS STUFF (etc)

 

Your PSU is fine.  However all 1060's require extra power from the PSU.  All of them.

Dude I ran a 1060 off a HP Pro 6300 with a 320w PSU.  His PSU is fine lol as long as he can get cables to the card.

no you cant, the card wont start

 

cheaping out a PSU is like cheaping out on a heart surgery, a super bad idea

I'm just curious as to why he thinks he has no PCIe cables, or more so he didn't say "I don't have cables" but "I don't want to run cables to my graphics card"

His PSU will run that card at 100% load no problem.  Guaranteed.  1000%.

 

As long as he can get daisychained molex or SATA to a 6 or 8 pin at least.  And it will work.  Just make sure you pull from separate lines on the PSU (I.E. run 1 rail for 1 connection only so 2 rails to create 1 6 or 8 pin connection)

He sounds like a complete and utter newb to me when it comes to hardware lol

 

But his PSU is fine, even if it is old and crappy there are TONS of options for creating 6 or 8 pin connections.
