December 14, 20169 yr Hi! I would like to buy a new PC and I thought that I can buy the GTX 1050. Do you think it´s a good graphic card for P3D? Other Hardware: Intel Core i5 6500 GA-B150-HD3P 12 GB RAM Sorry for my bad english, I´m from Germany. Thank you! mr_gambler
December 14, 20169 yr The GTX 1050 is a rather weak GPU. It will run P3D but you will have to turn down quite alot of graphics settings. Don't expect great performance from that card.

December 14, 20169 yr Try to squeeze for a GTX1060 or even a GTX980 Ti. Latter is outgoing so prices should be falling (and some going second hand) but it is still a very good card for P3D with high settings. Must hook your GPU up with good motherboard, RAM and CPU to get full benefit though.

December 14, 20169 yr The GTX 1070 is a great value as well I think....I'd probably skip the 1050 and at least do a 1060. Eric i9-12900k, RTX 5070ti OC, 32GB ddr5 5600 RAM, 2TB 980 Pro SSD, Titan 240RX AIO, Samsung CRG90 49", Win 11
December 15, 20169 yr You can get a GTX 1070 for around $400 on Amazon. Just watch prices regularly as they fluctuate.
