Much better performance per dollar usually. Gamers nexus and hardware unboxed have a million gpu comparisons on YouTube. To compare cards you type into Google, "this card vs that card", that will show you userbench or whatever it's called. Click and browse. Considering a 1050 series card is only good for the bin, likewise a 1660 card, do some research before wasting money on something that piss poor.

Having just upgraded a 1050 ti to a 3080 ti, can confirm this man speaks truth. My 1050 ti wasn’t worth the board it was attached to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's one, it's probably not a lot more than a new low end card. You can offset an old PC with a decent GPU and a high resolution monitor. The CPU won't have to do as much work with a high res monitor so you get more value from a better GPU. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell us your absolute max and we can work out what's the best card for you. Other relevant info to provide is your screen resolution, type of games you play, fps you are targeting and whether ray tracing is important to you. Fwiw ray tracing is sh*te unless you go high end, so for now just focus on rasterization imho. If your budget is $500 and you want a new card, go for an AMD 6700xt. Nvidia has nothing at that price point that can compete with AMD. Here's a video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
