I regret buying a gtx 750 ti sff, a few weeks ago only to realize that a newer better version of the "slap it on your prebuilt pc and you got yourself a gaming rig" graphics card, will come in like 1 week.

why would you intentionally buy a card that was 2.5 years old when you knew the new series was already out and a replacement would come soon

I am not sure what to do with this information.

wait a week and they'll drop in price if they haven't already

not to mention the 1050/ti won't be available for MSRP for months, just like every other GPU recently

they were 230+ before the new gen of cards was released I rly doubt it'll drop more.

yttriumwhy would you intentionally buy a card that was 2.5 years old when you knew the new series was already out and a replacement would come soon

I intentionally bought a GTX 970 right before the 1080's came out so I could sell my GTX 980 before they dropped in price like a rock. Bought it so I could use it as I waited for the 1080's. Then I used AMEX return protection to return the GTX 970 after 90 days. Worked a charm. :)

Quite a few credit cards these days offer return protection, if you bought the card on a CC.

if you trusted the return protection why didn't you buy a 980?

I don't see the point in getting a 1050ti.
Used 7970/280x go for 100 $ on ebay and are much faster.
The RX 470 is like 20$ more and is like twice as fast.
The 1050 is only like 4% faster than the 950 they released barely a year ago.

Shity PSU isnt really an argument eather because you can get a 500 watt Seasonic 80+ bronze PSU on Ebay for like $20 shipped.
