Get the same xx50 ti model lor

GTX 1050 TI 4GB can run direct off the motherboard. Most models don't need PCIE power for it. Any model is fine as this gpu don't run hot. Zotac offer 5 years warranty after registration, which is worth considering. Price range about $250 brand new.

Zotac GTX 1050Ti about $245? Same price as SLS ma? Not bad performance for it's price.

Edit: just checked PCThemes, it's cheaper there by $1.60.

Any cheaper recommendations? I don't use for gaming, just normal usage only, streaming videos, gaming is just football manager and at most counter strike only.

Integrated gpu... Meaning the "video card"and cpu are together...

For intel, i believe all cpu had it. For amd, i believe only the apu had it

The motherboard has video output interms of DVI or VGA. You can remove the spoilt GPU and run the integrated graphics processor unit (iGPU) that is built into the i5-3470 by connecting monitor directly to motherboard. Will not need another graphics card. The intel iGPU should be sufficient for browsing and light gaming.

Just use your onboard gpu. Can play counterstrike football manager no problem. Just tweak with the graphics settings will do. Save your $180 for something nice.

Try and use dvi or hdmi or even display port if have. If don't have then just use vga.

So if I use the on board gpu, what should I do with the cable from the power suppy that is suppose to connect to old spoilt gpu? Just leave it dangling? Or need to remove? My power supply is Fsp Raider 550.

OK, saw that zotac gtx 1030 2gb selling at $124 and gigabyte gt 1030 2gb is selling at $134 at Tradepac. Are this 2 gpu the ones that u are talking about? Is there any difference between them?

I suggest you go buy a second hand GTX 560Ti for $30 in the marketplace or carousell, that should last you another year. GTX 560Ti can hit over 100fps at 1080p resolution for CS-GO. Then upgrade to a mid-tier GTX 10xx (GTX 1050Ti/GTX 1060) after a year since GTX 11xx series is just around the corner. By then GTX 10xx will be much more affordable.
Never buy a brand new GTX 10xx at the bloated price right now..
