Help me to find a video card for my system

[Georgi Maev]

Hello guys, 1st of all sorry for my bad English. So i want to buy a new GPU, but I dont know which. But
I'm afraid for the bottleneck. My system is Intel Pentium G3250 3.20GHz, 6GB RAM DDR3, 1TB Memory.
So now I am with GT 610, but I want new. I used this site http://thebottlenecker.com/ and it says that i will have bottleneck with GTX1050, so guys could you recommend me a GPU for my system please?

you will be CPU and memory limited in most current games, but GT 610 is more limiting than the rest of the system, and with a 1050 this PC will run games a lot better than it does now...
I think, GTX 1050 is OK, but really it depends on what you are trying to play, if it's something like the latest Battlefield and COD, I think it will run kind of badly with any VGA because of the CPU and lack of ram, but still a lot better than with a 610.

Don't worry about the bottleneck. Get the Nvidia 1050, at least.. or you can go for AMD 560..

Please also answer these questions if possible:

1. What's your monitors resolution ?

2. Which games do you play?

Also, is that a pre-built CPU or did you assemble it yourself. What I wish to inquire is that, whether your PC is running on a generic SMPS or a branded 80% efficient power supply ?

I think a gtx960 4gb is the best choice. Try to get one used for about $100. A gtx1050 with only 2gb of gram is not a good choice in 2018. The gtx1050ti 4gb seems a little overpriced.

The gtx1050ti 4gb seems a little overpriced.

Just a little! ($180) ... LOL!

(I bought a couple six months ago for $120 ea., man the prices today suck.)

Newegg's got a Gigabyte ITX-style GTX1050 2GB GDDR5 PCI-E x16 card, for $122.99 + $3.99 shipping. That's about the best that you are going to do, for a minimal actual "gaming" card.

Or you could get that Zotac GT 730 1GB GDDR5 for $38.95, if you're on a really severe budget. Don't think that it will play much besides "e-sports" titles though, certainly no GTA V I don't think, due to lack of VRAM.

Edit: I take back that last statement. I found a YT video playing GTA V at a playable framerate and settings (might have been 720P), and it seems to play OK on a GT 730 1GB GDDR5 card. Unknown what the rest of the system was, but I assume at least a quad-core.

My monitor resolution is 1920x1080(Full HD), and Im playin games like LoL, WoW, Cs GO,Garys Mod,(really want to get PUBG and GTA V when I get new GPU)

Guys I think maybe to get 1050Ti soon, and after that maybe 6 mounths later to get i3 8100, with new motherboard and RAM

Get the Biggest Graphics card possible in case you are planning to upgrade your CPU as well in the future. GTX 1060 (6GB) or AMD 580 (8GB). Will keep you happy @ 1080p for years..

Also, when you upgrade your whole system, build an AMD RYZEN PC this time around. They offer more cores/threads at high boost clocks, which is the trend for the future.

Don't buy anything with less than 8 threads.. Will avoid the kind of bottlenecks that you're having now.

So I can buy soon GTX 1060(6GB), but I will need to gather more time maybe something like 1 year get that powerful PC.So it will be good to buy GTX1060(6GB) maybe something like 1 after mounth and than to gather for new system (Ryzen)

Then you will be wasting money on a powerful card that you will not abe able to use properly, because in a years time there should be new gpu architectures out for a lesser price and better performance. I'd go with the cheapest gt 1030 or rx 550 (or maybe a used card in the 40-50$ range) you could find and then start saving up money for a new system.

For your system a used GTX 960 4GB would be the best. If you don't like buying used, then I guess RX 560 4GB is your best option.

If you are planning to upgrade to a RYZEN based PC inside 1 year, then purchase 1060 6GB, else buy the AMD 560 / Nvidia 1050Ti; whichever is cheaper..
