I am kind of leaning towards the GTX 1050 2GB D5 Video Card

There are a lot of fake cards out there atm, do you have a link to the card that you are considering so we can check it out for you.

Two things that I noticed in Speccy, your RAM is only running at 1333MHz when it should be running at 1600MHz and one of your hard drives is flagged up as having issues.

Can you please give me some good websites that are cheap and trustworthy?

For the RAM, what do I do for that?[/color][/color]

GPU prices are on the high side atm but Newegg and Outlet PC have the GTX 1050 in stock, purchase direct from them if you can and expect to pay $150+.

Not sure why your RAM is running at 1333MHz, check your MB manual as you may need to use the MSI OC genie to get the RAM to run at 1600MHz. you should be more concerned about losing the data on the hard drive that is shown to have issues.

I thought you narrowed it down to the GTX1050. :unsure:
