Why do people consider GTX1050Ti's and 1030 as good budget GPUs? They can barely hit 60 on medium to high settings, and at the monstrosities, I've come across that not even my R9 390 can handle at medium to high settings. why do tech channels still recommend them? 40-50fps feels like garbage without Freesync or god forbid Gsync.

Because prices where high. But for gaming you should go RX580/GTX1060. If you want to cheap out RX 570. Everything else below this sucks ass and will only benefit a computer that doesnt have an igpu

I think it entirely depends on what games people play. I have a GTX 1070 and the games I play often struggle at 1080p.

It's because consoles aren't slow as shit at the moment

also, quit using max shaders, ultra high textures, 16xq aa and hbao++++ on an especially LOW budget, 3gb, gpu like the 1050ti or the nearly intel hd performance of the 1030.

Because they're poor.

This. Also, some of those people are pairing it with an underpowered power supply and/or don't have a 6-pin connector. 1050ti is pretty impressive considering it gets all its power from the pcie slot

>good budget GPU
>budget
there's the answer, fag

not everyone wants to pay for more than they need. the 1050Ti will shred any game more than a couple years old, and all but the most unoptimized AAA shit that comes out today.

Not everyone plays the latest AAA game and needs to run it on the highest settings.

>high settings
Found your problem. Users on a tight budget are generally willing to drop to low or medium, 900p, or accept some frame drops. It's a cheap card. If you wanted more performance you should have paid for more.

yep

>why don't tech channels recommend 1080ti for budget builds???????
>sure it might be 400% more expensive but you get like twice the framerate on vidya man
>twice the framerate!!

The 1030 is a scam.
The newer models use DDR3 instead of DDR5. This effectively murders performance.

Idk my gtx 970 is twice as fast as a 1050ti. Also 390s are housefires

Depends on what their needs are. They may have bought it for a particular game. And anything higher is expensive because of cryptominers.

because GTX 1050 Ti is 720p card and low setting 1080p card

There is truth to this. Consoles even have hdr which is just starting to become a pc thing. The days of a cheap pc build being so much better than a console is over. I mean I hope pc the gaming does get a lot better but until ray tracing becomes more of a thing or VR becomes mainstream I don't see it.

nah
i like picking my own settings
also i don’t want a console appliance i can’t mess with

Lel modern games are somehow less optimized.

Consoles still average mid. 20s on triple a games. HDR is on console because of monitors not having HDR but tvs having them. Not because of gpu limitations nigger.

Because you can slap them into used dell computers and get a decent gaming computer for under $400

>60 on medium
works on my peecee

Because they aren't talking about faggy gamer shit. Those are fine budget GPUs for doing adult things.

>Recommending gaymer GPU over a Quadro
>Adult things

>using Nvidia shit at all

Like shitposting on Jow Forums?

?

My 1050ti runs gta v at high/ultra at 60fps

Overclocked 1050ti scrapes top of 1080p 60hz gaming which is fine for most.

No, like getting an epic kill streak.

*DDR4
*GDDR5
If you're looking at 1030s, make sure you get the GDDR5 kind. The DDR4 kind is bullshit.

>owning a fucking PC in 2000+Late

At least the 1050ti is a fine GPU for gaming.
1030 will go the job if you don't mind 720p.

Gayest thread on g right now.

That'd explain why im here

Dude, chill out. Alot of people don't mind lower graphics or 30fps. Building a PC is not a spec game. Its building something that fits your usecase. Some people would rather not spend more money on something they didn't want in the first place. That's the whole reason people say building a PC is cheaper. It's because you don't spend your money on a load of unnecessary crap you didn't want (for that price anyway)

A 1030 can probably play any games out today at low graphics. It's cheap as well. That's why people recommend it for Budget gaming.

Bought a 1030 for my Ryzen 1600x build, pleased with the results

Fuck miners

>Fuck miners
Fuck YOU

>Picking AMD over nvidia
amd cards consumes more power, heat and noise over nvidia cards

The best cards to get are Nouveau compatible Nvidia cards.

1050 ti is literally more powerful than a and PS4 it will be enough till the end of this console generation.

lmao I’m still running a 760 and my gaymes run fine at 1080p

Anybody who uses blanket terms like medium or high need to off themselves. Learn what the actual settings do. Fucking retards gimp their games by using dumb ass presets.

Wtf I want AMD now if they consume heat and noise

What? 1050 ti maxes out any and all game at 720p or 1280x1024.
>hurr why are cheap things not as good

>Why do people that want to buy cheap cards don't buy expensive cards?
I don't know faggot, you tell me.

i've got bad news for you

(((They))) don't want people playing games at maxed settings under $300. Blame (((nvidia))).

What's wrong with the 1050 ti again?

Attached: 2eyes.png (400x400, 6K)

Nothing at all unless you're autistic to the point of needing to max out the settings to be able to play a game.

I'm still using a 750ti and only very recently started considering buying a new card.

I have 1060 6gb and it can run everything.

fuck all
best card for a sff pc or egpu

It's around 50% faster, not twice

>40-50 feels like garbage
>tfw happy to hit up 30 fps on my toaster

i'm not giving nvidia 200$ for goy-sync

...

Too bad my Shappire R9 390 probably runs 10c cooler than your 970, and has 2.5x the RAM :(

I use a 1050Ti and I have no issues running games. I usually run at high settings and get around 60 FPS. Some games I do need to turn down the graphic settings some, like fallout 4 and no mans sky. But other than that, I don't have too many issues with it.

No mans sky is killing me currenty with 750ti. So waiting for the 2 week price drop in 1080s.

it mostly lags on the loading screen for me. And occasionally the game will just crash when I'm with friends and we're trying to start a mission from someones freighter. But it's a small issue that I don't get upset about.

Doing single and learning it, sad that I have to low settings everything. Not giving up though as I need the requirements anyhow for star citizen.

Imagine still paying for games

The 1050 Ti is very shitty. I would rather get a 1060 or 480 (used). 1050 Ti costs almost 200 €. Its efficient, but slow.

1030 is not only cheap, it's also uses very little power which is good. it's not a gaymer card, if anyone is recommending it as a budget card for gaming they are retarded.

What games do you play?

people underestimate the used market, you can get used cards for dirt cheap and they will last just as long as a new card, you're literally paying for packaging
the 1050ti doesn't require an 8 pin pcie power connector unlike the 1060, so it's better for media centers and small builds, GPU's all have a different market they are going for and the 1050ti is for small form factor purposes (like laptops) where you can get some 1080p gaming without needing an excessive power supply

>Mining
>used cards
Hopefully no one is that level of retarded.

>everyone must be mining
>implying miners don't undervolt
plus if it was used for (((mining))) you could just haggle the price down further, do you have zero barter skills?

hah, I would never.. EVER buy a used GPU. I would tell anyone else to run like hell. Even if every document said used for a week. RUN MOTHER FUCKER RUUUUUUUN.

imagine being this much of a consumerist retard, I've had a used 1080 for almost 2 years now without a single problem, maybe you should just kill yourself

Ever used a mined GPU running 24/7? No you havent as you are talking out your ass. Next time dont try to be a big boy.

I mined with my 1080 for 4 months, you're a fucking retard

Mined GPUs are worth trash. You know, I know, Everyone should know it. Stop being a jew about it.

autism.

Show your nose with pride.

1050ti is cheap gaming laptop tier. You must be pretty impoverished if you use one in a desktop

No you retarded nigger everyone knows mined gpu are gonna shit out much faster

I've 290x and a 1080ti. the Nvidia uses way more power at boot. So much current inrush that my seasonic 500w couldn't power it.

To be fair he may have a SFF or OEM system. A 1050ti fits perfectly with that requirement.

I wonder if any of the people in this thread complaining about and shitting on the 1050Ti have ever actually used one. I have one in my PC right now and I am more than pleased with the performance I get from it. Most games run and default at high settings in which I normally get 50-60 FPS. It's only a few games that need to go in and tweak the video setting for, and even then it's not that much to make the games aesthetically pleasing and run well.

>mined GPUs aren't given LESS voltage for higher returns, thus less heat received over the course of X hours than your average gayman GPU
dumbass

You're fucking deluded

1080ti is a high wattage card so i am not surprised

what games are you playing? my 1050ti can actually handle 1080p 60fps pretty well desu

>hear things he doesn't like
>y-you're deluded
At worst, mining GPU will have the same fatigue as your normal gaming GPU over the course of a given time frame with slightly worse fan wear. If the GPU shuts off the fan if the GPU is operating under X degrees, then the fan will have, on average, the same wear as its GPU counterpart.

Reminder that miners treat their cards better for resale than gaymers that let their shit form a layer of dust and overclock the shit out of it.

>running a few hours a day at best under heavy load
>running 24 hours a day every day at medium to medium-high load

Pick your poison. Not the guy you were arguing with but I would rather grab the gamers GPU over the miners GPU any day. Unless they are abusiung their GPU every single day then a miner card will definately have more wear.

Yea but if youre buying used without pictures showing the card youre a fucking moron. Caked dust is easy enough to spot, and vast majority of it can be cleaned with an air compressor that doesnt suck.

Hope you enjoy cleaning some greasy gamers dead skin cells that formed a thick layer of dust in between the heatsink grills.

even my 780 is faster

You do know that electronics, processors and hard drives included, prefer constant voltages applied a long period of time than fluctuating voltages (as is common in gaming) applied over a shorter period?

This.

Problem?

Blizz shit, battlefield, pubg, csgo

>2013 game runs on 60fps
try PUBG

Eh I have a 760 and pubg runs well enough for me to win reasonably often

I used to have a GTX 960 which is roughly the same performance as a 1050Ti. It was fine for 1080p, not sure what OPs getting at. The only game it struggled to get 60fps at reasonable settings on was Deus Ex Mankind Divided, that game was a shitshow.

They're massively overpriced. That's what you get when you have a market duopoly which is effectively just a monopoly.

A GTX 1050 ti should go for no more than $120, a GT 1030 for $50.

Agreed. 4k/60fps porn runs great on those cards.

This. You can browse CP fine with those cards

THIS FUCKING THIS. we got a lot of cards above gtx 1050 ti which means it is 3rd to lowest shitty binned card/

geez its not even a mid-range anymore

you forgot the overclocked models

It does not. I had a 960 2G and it drops often. You have to play ultralow if you want 1080p.
