    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

    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 :)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I purchased this card for an older system (a Dell Precision T7400). My PC has a PCI Express 2.0 slot and it's labeled as being able to handle 75W (which is what this card requires). It also has a 1000W Power Supply. I did some research and found that a PCI Express 3.0 card will work in a 2.0 x16 slot, so I decided to try it, knowing that I could return it if necessary. The card works very well in my PC. And it's nice not having to run an extra power cable to it. Windows did its thing and installed drivers for it, so I installed the NVIDIA Experience software to get the latest NVIDIA drivers for Windows 10. I selected Custom Install and checked the Clean Installation check box. Everything went smoothly. I'm using it now with an older 24" monitor that only has VGA and DVI inputs (I'm using DVI), so my next purchase will be a new HDMI 2.0b or 4K monitor, and then a 5.1 Surround Sound system for the PC (if I can find one). Thanks Best Buy! PS - If you count on using an integrated sound card that is "built in" to the motherboard, make sure that you look at your BIOS settings first. My integrated audio was set to Auto, so the BIOS let Video Card's sound system take over. My built-in sound was therefore turned Off, and was no longer available to Windows. I entered BIOS and changed it from Auto to On, and that restored my sound.

    I bought this as a replacement for a GTX 650 Ti and as expected the performance is substantially better. Unlike the older card , the GTX 1050 Ti does not require a 6 pin power connection. It draws all of its power from the PCI-E bus. So as a replacement video card it wont require an upgrade to your power supply. This card is however quite long compared to my old 650 Ti and in a fairly crowded case like mine took some rearranging of hard drives and cables to fit properly,.The fans on the card are quiet and only noticeable when under load and even then it never gets annoyingly loud. My only complaint is that it has only one DVI out and one HDMI out compared to the 650 Ti whuch had 2 DVI and 1 HDMI out.

    Evga 1050 ti GTX

    I wasn't sure what to expect. I had upgraded from a MSI 660 TI GTX that broke down on me after 6 years. So I went back with EVGA nothing against MSI. Love MSI. Its just what best buy at the store had is the EVGA 1050 TI. At first I wasn't expecting much out of it. Though to my surprise it runs my games great. More so older ones from 2054 and below. I get over 100 frame rates on battlefield 4 which is awesome among other older games at max settings. Plus it comes with 4gb of vram. Which is a bonus to it. Now I don't know how modern games would run on it at 1080p I would assume around medium to high settings. Though regardless if you want to play old games then this will be a beast for it and you will not be disappointed. I surely glad I got it. Even though I wanted to get the 1060. I just didn't have the money for that model. And I surely don't regret just getting the EVGA 1050 ti GTX. :)

    I bought this card for my new system before GPU's starting going higher than an Atlas V rocket blasting through the stratosphere. I love the fact that it doesn't need an additional power connector to run, it gets all of its power directly from the PCIE slot. In my experience EVGA products are solid and this one is no exception. I was able to play Titanfall 2 on very high settings without any issues and should handle most other games, just don't expect to be able to game at anything higher than 1080p. For the price, you can't beat it, err at least it was.

    This graphic card was easy to install and works great. I have a new large screen monitor and the existing on-board graphic card did not support the higher resolution I needed to do justice to the monitor, this graphic card did the trick. Great buy.

    Upgraded to this card from a GTX650 1GB and just wow. Went from low graphic settings on Destiny 2 at maybe 20-30FPS to Max settings at 60 FPS (some dips but I'm sure that's my CPU as only about half of the VRAM is used in the game settings). Great price and a product of the USA, I paid a little more for EVGA because of their customer service reputation. Hopefully I never have a problem but if I do I know the RMA process will be smooth! Easy to install, no extra power needs to be routed to this card from your supply!
