Happy Birthday to me!

[Smith Modding]

Ok, so I don't really have pictures like everyone else usually does for these threads, but this is pretty awesome. I got a NVIDIA 1050ti Sc... and I love it! I am running every game I have at 60fps or higher at high or very high settings, it's awesome. My old card was a NVIDIA 730, and I averaged about 30 or 40 fps. Here are the specs of my PC now-

	i5-6400 processor 8GB DDR3 ram (soon to be 16GB) EVGA NVIDIA GeForce 1050ti SC 4GB Windows 10 with Ubuntu side installed

And here's the cool thing- those console players who are looking at buying a PC, buying a desktop in the $500 range will run most games well for a while, then save up some money and buy the 1050 ti, and it will fit into almost any prebuilt PC, it doesn't require an upgraded power source, I'm still running with the 240W my PC came with. So it's a much less expensive option to a really expensive gaming PC.

That should be me

And happy BDay Smith

1050ti is definitely a great choice I think and I'm going to be doing the same thing I guess.

I don't intend to play FS on PC though. My only reasoning is the stupid ETS2 that insists on skipping a console release for some sick reason which I don't know. So, I think I will go their way instead of waiting for them to come my way

I'm on the hunt for a graphics card too at the moment but trying to find a 750ti or 1030 at a reasonable price. I refuse to buy a new one as this PC is never getting new parts. That can wait until next year when I build a good one.

^^ The 750ti (from what I can tell) is like the older version of the 1050ti. Not really compared by speed, but by the fact it was super popular because it could just be dropped into most PCs for a simple and cheaper upgrade, compared to other NVIDIA cards and competitor's cards. Hope you find one, having a faster PC is always fun

That's why I want one. I had an unbranded PSU and it still works but sporadically so I've taken out my GTX 460 and using integrated graphics and stock PSU until I can find a half decent card that runs off pci-e power.

The Toshiba laptop I had for the entirety of FS15 was 10 years old and had integrated graphics. And having that experience I hope you find a card soon
