Wow. This thread went down the toilet.
Why the need for the hostility? It's a graphics card. Nobody gives a ****. Just buy whatever offers the best value at the time.

You got some issues there my friend which cannot be solved on an Internet forum. You asked who would consider a 1050 so I gave a reasonable answer. If a person has a dell vostro or similar with 300 watt psu and is looking to upgrade the on board graphics with a low power card which is pretty much silent and can play the 'latest games' albeit not on ultra, but still have a decent experience then a 1050 is alright in my opinion! Edit to add that I couldn't care less about company brands.

It's a downgrade in many areas - DX12 is your only real upgrade area here. The GTX 970 remains the most popular GPU used by gamers, so it is far more likely that developers will ensure that their games work well enough on this GPU. In terms of 'future proofing', downgrading in the short term is a terrible idea. Why not just wait until DX12 is actually more important? By that time, paying this amount of money for a GPU will result in a clear performance upgrade in all areas.

Lovely price for a very capable card. Pair it with a £90 freesync monitor and it'll eat alive all games at 1080 resolution

Thoughts on pairing this with an i3?

i3 isn't really a good way of describing a CPU. Which one? It should be fine.

Lovely. 2 days ago I nearly bought a GTX 1050 Ti for £140. So so glad I've waited! Scorching deal, thanks op
