    I play just a few titles and recently upgraded from onboard video to this card. I believe for under $170 this is the best card for this particular GPU Pro's- It remains quiet Doesn't need additional power connection Multiple monitors supported very well Cons- None really Some would say it won't allow some titles to be played at high settings, but this card's "class" is more entry level. I was looking at a 1060 6gb but couldn't justify the additional $100+ cost at the time- For many games at 1080p with decent settings, this is fine!

Well worth the uprade !! .

    Upgrading from a GTX 285 FTW, Not a flagship card, so I wouldn't expect that type of performance. However this card will game with decent settings at 1080P or lower depending on what CPU you have. I installed this into an i3 3rd gen Gateway PC for BF3/BC2/Black Ops 1 and it works great on 1080P 60HZ/FPS Great Budget/light gaming card. I also installed a FTW model into an i7-920 Custom build and can game Black Ops 4 at 1440x900 low settings with 60+FPS avg. Also installed one in a 6600k/Z170 PC, does about the same FPS at 1080P maybe a little better FPS

    1050ti 4gb is great for 1080p gaming on high setting. Destiny 2 plays 60+ fps on high(also paired with ryzen 5 x1600 and Corsair vengeance rgb 16g) Playerunknown's battleground plays 30+ fps on high(custom) settings

    My computer games again! Easy install (large card though.. check dimensions) runs the newer stuff well enough for me, maxing most settings at 1080p. My budget and I don't need 4K at 240fps. Docking 1 star in part because although newer card, it still doesn't list as "VR ready" with a 970 as the minimum and a little for size. It rendered one of my power cables (see pic) almost too short. But if your gamer needs some new life and you're not obsessed with rate and resolution, catching this card on sale (or with a price match) is a great choice.

    Best card option for a ready built PC

    If you have a computer like a Dell Optiplex with a great I7 processor, a decent amount of ram, and a mediocre PSU. This card is the best bang for your buck you are going to get where you can run current gen games on Very High settings, even some ultra settings and get 60FPS! It's a very underrated card and does the job extremely well. Though it has NO power input so if you are looking to Overclock it even further then you may want to consider the FTW edition though I don't think that's available from Best buy iirc. Best to go check some options if you are looking to boost further. Otherwise if you want a affordable, toss in card that'll let you play games like PUBG, Overwatch, Rocket League, CSGO, etc then I recommend this card. It has opened up all current gen doors and allows my older games like Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, and Heroes of the storm to really shine! No regrets :)

    I bought this as a gift and haven't used the computer it was installed in very much myself. However my husband, primarily a PC gamer vs my preference for consoles, is very pleased with it. When he played Overwatch with our old GPU I believe he'd get about 20fps at the very lowest settings. With this card he's rocking 60fps minimum at the highest graphic settings. Runs very quiet. The old card I could tell when someone left a game running as there was a faint high pitched whine coming from the fans. The new card I don't hear at all. It is a very large card though so make sure you have plenty of space on all sides. We had a slight challenge fitting it at first as the manufacturer had used these short, perfect sized cables for things like the hard drive and disk drive. Trying to get this card to fit in around them was tough to begin with. Finally I pulled those cables and properly seated the card. It was a lot easier to fit the cables around the card once I did that. I'd recommend it. This is actually the upgraded version of the one my husband had on his wish list, but we caught a great Black Friday deal so figured might as well get the upgrade.

    this gpu continues to impress me, although on my aging PC i was not expecting the performance i got out of this gpu, the miners have really screwed up options for high level gaming and i really thought i was settling for low end at the end of the day some games are better than no games! On warframe im getting 120-140 fps on high settings with no vsync ,eso,starcraft 2 all high and ultra and ran 1st benchmark on ashes of the singularity lastnight that one was rough but still smooth averaging 56-63 fps. This is an excellant option for upgrading an older PC or getting by until etherium is gone!!!(by the way this crushed my sons xfx overclocked rx 460 by 20-30 fps on ashes)

    Just installed this card for my kids' PC for X-Mas. Dual-fan model is fairly large, and just made it into the mid-sized case on a small form factor board. Install was easy, and the mobo recognized it right away (did not even need to disable the on-board graphics). Software install from CD was easy as well, and will install driver updates later. Plays all of the online games the kids want so far, super-smooth with no lag. Fans are quiet (don't even hear them), and so far the unit has stayed cool. So far a good investment for the price.

    I purchaased this card to replace a GTX-560 that wasn't capable of playing the latest games in my son's computer. This card can play them all! It's got a great price point and unlike the GTX-560 it doesn't need any additional power requirements. It was easy to install and set up. A great alternative to some of the more expe$ive Nvidia-based cards.

    Great for what it is, but what is isn't enough

    TL;DR This Card is best gaming card for the price point, buy it now but look to upgrade in a few years. High Settings, 1080 res, 60FPS, most games The 1050 TI 4GB card line offers, just about the only reasonable price card on the market at the moment. It is almost enough to do most of what you want, offers 60FPS for most games at 1080 and lower resolution at high settings. Modern games demand more power and require GeForce 1060 6GB or better to perform up to expectations. Unfortunately Crypto currency mining has pushed the market price for the 1060 and above well beyond MSRP and none of the higher end cards really offer the power that you pay for. By the time current cards return to their fair market value, they'll most likely be obsolete. So I highly recommend purchasing this card for now and waiting for the next generation for a sub $200 card to play modern games at 4k 60fps with some future proofing.

    Had been considering upgrading my graphics card for a while. I am running a Dell xps 8700 tower, stock. Came with a 635 graphics card, nothing impressive. Also running 8gb of memory and an i7 processor. I recently moved and found that my hdmi port had been damaged, so I was unable to run my second monitor and had to fall back to dvi. Installation wasn't terribly painful. Took a few videos and a little research make sure I was doing it correctly. I have never built a computer or opened one up, but I am fairly familiar with them. It fit well enough without having to move too many cables around. Thankfully, my stock power supply was enough to handle the new card, as it only draws 300watts max. My power supply can give out 460watts max. After installing the supplied drivers, I tried Obduction from Cyan Worlds. Excellent game. Was barely able to run it a minimum setting before, but am now able to run it a full power at 1080p with a decent frame rate. I also tried star trek: legacy - ultimate universe mod. Runs significantly better than before. The only card would hang up on ship explosions and take several seconds to spit out a single frame. This new 1050 ti can keep up with it and them some. Very happy with it.

    I don't play any tasking games, mainly just play LOL and it runs high 150+ fps throughout the game, even on team battles. When still you hit up to 250fps on LOL, which is way more than enough. I also video edit with this gpu, mainly working on 4k video downscaled to 1080p, and it displays just fine. would recommend for anyone making a budget pc, but you have the money for the higher end of the quad gpus by then all means go for it.

    I upgraded from a GTX 470. I was about to run 2 470's in SLI, but would've needed a motherboard upgrade to do so. Definitely worth the money. Stays cool, can play PUBG on ultra with minor frame drop, however, I play on lower settings and stay above 60 at almost all times, usually at about 110fps. I run a AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz(OC'd- 4.2GHz) 8-core. Probably the best $$ I've spent into PC upgrades so far.

    Nice Graphic Card for Lenovo Desktop

    I purchased this graphic card for my son's Lenovo Desktop computer. He uses it for gaming. It was simple to install in the desktop and works well with the HDMI cable connection to the monitor. He is very please with the function of the card for the games that he places on the desktop. I have the same desktop. So I may look into getting the same graphic card, if I need it for the 3D modeling I do.

    This card is excellent. Quick and easy installation. It pulls all the power it requires from the PCIe slot, it does not require any direct connection from the power supply. I bought it to replace my old GTX 460 and the difference is amazing.

    Just lock the card into the slot, update and you got yourself an, (XB1, PS4, WII & T.V./MOVIE THEATER), all around system in one. It does not come with a 6/8 pin adapter for it does not need one. RECOMMEND+++AAA The picture I uploaded are from the game, (THE FOREST). Looks like I was there and took the picture with my phone camera half way in the water.

    Card peforms well, runs cool and quiet. Not the best value bought near $200 but, if you can pick it up less than $150 it's a steal. Testing side by side with a 2GB 1050 shows the difference the 4GB of memory makes. It's noticeable. At the time of my purchase, the card came with a key for Rocket League. Good game and runs flawlessly on the card. Great value add.
