780 is nearly same as 970 or 1060 3GB

If you are coming from a 780 3GB or 6GB; go towards a 1070 or 1070 Ti if you can.
otherwise hold on to your working GPU longer. 780 3GB is perfectly fine for most games @ 1080p

780 is more powerful, but doesn't have the Vram as the 1050 ti. I personally would still go for the 1050 ti though, longer support.

I only wanted it because it was only 53$ on sale. It’s an Evga GTX 780. Not to sure if it’s a 3gb or a 6gb. But my computer won’t run the GPU anyway.

Get a new psu also something to move over to a new build later.

You need to start somewhere.

The 780 6GB were limited editions; very doubtful those are still around. I've checked Ebay time and time again over the months and years and very few I ever see popup. They are super rare. I have 2 of them still working great. They put a hurt on the GTX 970, not by much but still, it can be compared and seen, because I can run things that a 970 runs into issues with because of the VRAM issues on 970 + only 4GB VRAM. I've been very happy with them. I did finally retire them from my now secondary PC and moved over to an EVGA 980 Ti Hybrid which is extremely good. I feel that EVGA knows the importance of certain consumer needs and has gone out of their way to make ALL their GPUs that are offered in a Hybrid model varient to be well build and rock solid. And should an EVGA's Hybrid liquid cooler go up and the GPU is out of warranty, you can replace that AIO with something from Corsair perhaps, or others, but many of Corsair's AIO-LQ I know for sure are compatible with EVGA Hybrid if you ever have a need to replace that part of the GPU.

EVGA has been very good to me, friends, family, co-workers over the years and I look forward to what they keep bringing to the table. They have the best in class GPUs by far when it comes to United States (as I simply can't speak for other countries in terms of how EVGA's support has been with those, or how well other regions are able to get a hold of EVGA GPUs) and their ridiculously good Tech Support Teams have always answered the call in timely fashions whenever we've needed help or replacements. I don't know of a GPU brand that has a better team nor a better warranty service than EVGA; they are simply the best in that part of this business, hands down. No one else even comes close.

I have to say though that after seeing CES-2018, Gigabyte is really stepping up their Game; they will be offering up their very own (in house keep in mind, not a 3rd party maker) RAM Kits, RGB Lighting Kits, and very rock solid Power Supplies; designed and manufactured by Gigabyte directly. So I'm very much looking forward to seeing all of that as well; it's all coming very soon, sometime this year and also trickling in through 2019.



* In Short * You should be very happy with a GTX 780 3GB over a GTX 1050 or 1050 Ti of ANY kind out there. Sure the 4GB VRAM helps; but 1050 and 1050 Ti are low-end enough to where it won't matter much cause you're simply NOT going to run Games in Very High / Ultra on either of those GPUs. A 780 however can often do that still, at 1920x1080 or 1920x1200; but again it will depend on which Games. I had no troubles with games like GTAV or TheDivision cranked up fairly nicely; obviously not to the full maximum but lets face it; neither 780 or even a 1060 of ANY kind will do that 100% to the fullest. But again you can easily tweak a few settings in such demanding games such as those two where it's all very doable and smooth.

No 1050ti nor 780, go for 1060 6 gigs, trust me, it's alot better in terms of both power efficiency and performance.

You buy him a GPU then; you're not going to find a deal like a 780 for that pricing.
1060 is crap for it's cost right now. In all honesty that is a $200 GPU, not a penny more.
The prices are still a complete joke right now unless you are willing to pay for a 1080 or 1080 Ti which are all on-sale right now and cheap for those performance margins.

I would love one but the price is a little high for me, the 780 was perfect until I got the news that my computer doesn't have enough power to run a 780. You cant find a 780 anywhere especially for 53$. I don't know how much wats it takes to run a 1060.

Everyone! May I direct you attention to OPs current specs:

^ Exactly why getting any expensive GPU is pointless.
The 780 wont perform the fullest even on those specs; however given the price, it makes sense to buy it. Unless the OP is willing to go buy a whole new PC build and move a GPU over to that soon; that would be about the only way a 1060+ makes sense.

Here's the problem though, if you have the stock PSU from HP in that machine; VERY few GPUs are an option to you. GTX 780 has a 250-280W TDP

So I sure would hope u have a decent Power Supply. If not, well then honestly, don't waste your money upgrading that HP at all.

The only GPU that really would make sense is a GTX 750 Ti at this point if you're still using that old HP power supply.

I cant just go buy a whole new PC right now. I just need a GPU just a little better than a GTX 750. I'll buy a new PC in the future, but I'm 15, I don't quite have a job yet.

"you buy him a gpu" buy from nvidia website when they are in stock, you get it for dirt cheap. duh should I even tell you how to get gpus for cheap? Don't try to argue with me if you don't know what the ♥♥♥♥ I'm talking about

When on-sale, well that doesn't really help the OP. He's in a bind and needs a GPU right now.

Here's the problem; again if you have the original HP power supply; that will NOT be enough juice to run a GTX 780.

Also a 750 Ti 2GB is fine for you, trust me because those specs are so poor, no better GPU will even run better, cause that CPU wouldn't allow a better GPU to shine like it should.

Yeah I'll just stick with the 750 for now. I'll figure out something in the future.

250W PSU? No way u can run anything above a 750 or 1030 GPU

Also that PSU needs to go in the trash, before it burns the house down.
