You can't overclock that CPU.

The cooler is sufficient, it will keep your CPU from overheating. If you get annoyed because it is sometimes loud you could replace it.

55c is quite cold for that CPU. Worry when it gets close to 90c.

Thanks!

off-topic:

I am planning to upgrade my GPU (which is bad) to this[www.amazon.com] to play the games mentioned earlier.

Or shall I get its dual fan[www.amazon.com] version which is $12 more expensive.

I won't play with the MSI AfterBurner to boost its clocks etc.
It's a low-end GPU so either one will do. I say get the cheapest one since factory overclocks on these low-end cards might gain you 1fps ingame at most, and with the $12 you saved you should buy yourself a bag of chips and some cola or something to celebrate getting a new GPU.

So unless you really like the look of the dual fan one and want 1fps more in games you should just get the cheaper single fan one.

Yeah, it should be enough. You can't overclock anyways.

As long as you have decent case airflow, it should handle the cpu just fine. At most, the noise of this noisy fan might get to you, but that is about it.

50c is well within normal operational temperature. Max temp for your CPU is 100c. Thermal throttling will happen around 5c before that. So, you really only need to start worrying about 90c.
I'd get the bigger one simply as it should run quieter, if you can fit it, better cooling is always nice and the cooler you keep the 10 series cards the better they boost themselves.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a 1050 ti, if it fits his budget. In fact, it's almost overkill for the games he is looking to play. Plus, when he is done with those, he will still be able to play quite a few of the newer AAA's at 50-60 FPS, if he's willing to turn down a few of the graphical settings.

I have a 1050 ti myself, so I say go for it OP. But then again, Black Friday is coming up, so waiting for a few weeks could yield some better deals. But in the end, it's up to you.

Black Friday like Sales can be had all month long on places like Newegg
