Thanks a lot for the replies man.
I will just be upgrading my GPU while waiting for more Z370 boards and for the bloody rams to drop first.
I know I will be getting i3-8100 for sure. *salivating*
I made a comparison list of the existing GPUs and prices across Carousell, Shopee and Lazada.
My mobo is as follows:
i5-3470
ASUS B75M-Plus
EVGA GTX 650 1024 MB
Samsung 840 EVO 120 GB
Thermaltake 500W/550W
NZXT Guardian 921 RB Mid Tower Case
Would it be possible for a GTX 1050 to fit in this mobo? I hope it can be a simple plug and play. Been so long since I dabbled in all these.
P.S What is low profile btw? I am tentatively looking at GTX 1050 Ti 4GB. Any recommendations for brand wise?
Just as an FYI
The longer you take to decide, the more expensive the GPUs become
Regardless of where you wish to compare, just click on the buy now button, if you see a GPU with prices you can accept
For the current climate
GPU is like a Stock Market Bullrun
1050 earlier on was $189 before discounts
1050TI $219 before discounts
Now, your selections limited to the " Premium " Stuff but then again, there's only so much performance you can squeeze out of the 1050 series coz the price of a premium 1050TI coul have gotten a 1060 2gb
If buying on Laqzada, you will be takinhg a chance of an " Out of Stock" scenario when voucher windows open so do bear that in mind.
If buying from Carousell: Confirm with the Seller first on stock availability, then " MAKE OFFER " to confirm stock, coz prices can hike with the span of a morning..
Unless the seller has Stock on Hand, they may advertise prices, but later " Have no stock "
If buying from SLS, call to reserve stock before heading down. Saw lots of lost sould today walking around SLS wondering why 1060 hard to find.
SO unless you have good connections, be prepared to either aim low, or aim high...
