tom95521 Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Instead of buying another computer I thought I should try to upgrade one of my older i7 computers with a SSD and graphics card. I can't decide on ATI or Nvidia. My gamer friend (plays GTA V) says Nvidia is better. I just turned 60 so first person shooter games do not interest me. HDTV 4K HDR monitors are more affordable so a graphics card that supports 4K is important. I also like the idea of multiple monitors for graphics programs, and truck simulator/flight simulator type games. Would you buy a Nvidia GTX 1050 ti or a AMD RX 460? Is 4 GB DDR 5 enough ram for any PTE slideshow? http://www.itechpost.com/articles/41410/20161015/budget-gpu-battle-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-vs-amd.htm Thanks, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted October 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 I decided to purchase the Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 1050 ti with 4 GB DDR5. Should be fast enough. Currently on backorder. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
