Anndd here we go again. The 470 is honestly a better choice in the OPs case.

OP

Unless you got a great deal on the 1050TI..... you made a bad choice.

https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Gigabyte/GTX_1050_Ti_G1_Gaming/32.html

In most places a 470 is the same price as the 1050TI and outperforms it by 25%, meaning you probably gave away 25% more performance for the same value, or you gave up 25% more money for equal performance.

To anyone who reads this thread after, I suggest you look at the graphs that compare performance per dollar, averaged performance, and overclocking performance increase to determine what cards in your budget will give the best value. The original poster didn't appear to have done this, but I hope that some circumstance allowed the purchase of the card for the 25% less performance at a equal value.

Here in india Gtx 1050 ti is USD 194 and Rx 470 is USD 250. So i saved 56 USD for 25% less performance. and rx 470 uses almost double power than gtx 1050 ti. so for 56 USD less Gtx 1050 ti is better choice than rx 470.
gtx 1050 ti play almost every modern games at high to ultra settings on 1080p at more than 30fps

here is quantum break on my rig 1080p almost 60fps

This is exactly why I worded as I did, you got the better deal for you, and for your area. Some areas the price vary wildly based on availability and markup, as well the small amount of power consumption may have an effect on the long term price/cost of the choice.

Thanks for the update sir.
