Graphics Cards: GTX 1050 ti?

[Lüh Me Da Granky]

I was going to upgrade the graphics card in my computer and was thinking about a GTX 1050 ti. Is this good enough to get decent frames on middle level video settings? If not, any recommendations? Thanks

yes. on medium settings you will get around 45-60+fps @ 1080p. i have a similar setup.

It should be more than enough but just for refrence what other specs do you have? For refrence i have a gtx 1070 it 3770 K 16 gb of ddr3 ram and a ssd for this game, and i run it at ultra with everything max but only at 60 fps when i should be getting higher fps mainly due to my stupid cpu and ram.

If I upgrade to 1050 ti:
i7 6700
16g ram
1050 ti
No SSD (I don't think that will be a prob)

Im not sure if this game relys on cpus alot but i dont understand why i was getting 55-60 on a 1070 which i just bought which means you should be fine since you have a great cpu. But before that i had a gtx 750 ti and got 35 frames on the lowest settings.

Gotta wonder why you have an i7 which is considerable overkill and then gimp out by getting a cheap card? Unless you really don't have much too spend I would atleast recommend a 1060 or 1070. The 1050-Ti will be outdated very quickly.

Yeah I bought this computer pre built, not as a gaming computer. I didn't really know much about computers back then and now i realize its time to upgrade, so probably a mistake. But im not running super hard games, so will it still be that big of a deal?

Nah a 1050ti will be fine for most current games at decent settings, it's just that better cards are of course more future-proof and will save you money in the long run (if you were to upgrade again).

Edit: you might actually want to look at getting an RX 480 rather than the 1050 ti. It's only about ~50 more expensive yet considerably more powerful and performs much better with regards to DirectX 12 (which will become more and more prominent in the coming years).

A gtx 1060 3gb is also a excellent option for 1080p gaming and the zotac mini only costs about 50 more and is more powerfull than the rx 480 at dx 11 but not dx 12 games.
