I understand 1070 is far superior. However, I was confused why you would only be hitting 30 FPS as I assumed (wrongly I guess) that you would have lowered your settings. Personally, I think it's silly to not lower your settings to get a higher FPS but do whatever you want I suppose.

Ram and CPU also affect a games performance besides the graphics card.

You must be running it at close to max to be having trouble on a 1050ti. Those cards aren't bad at all.

Nothing wrong with having to knock the settings down to make the game run better.

Maybe this should help a bit, maybe its the RAM or something.

Hmm. 8GB should be more than enough. Your processor isn't bad either. Are you having issues low performance in other games? If so I'd check to see if your primary display adaptor is set to the 1050 as opposed to the Intel Graphics just in case.

8 gb of ram is like the minimum to run games decent but 16 woul be better of coarse to try to run games more smoothly and at higher graphics settings.
Also a 1050 TI is also just ok, not great.

Your CPU is good.
SSD's help as well but more with starting the game up quickly.

But with your system I would run games at medium at best. Games at medium still look good and better or equal to most PS4 and Xbox One X games.

Look at this article.

https://gamerant.com/anthem-pc-xbox...ics-comparison/

Compares Anthem for PC and Xbox One X.


"Digital Foundry took the time to compare how Anthem runs on Xbox One X with its PC counterpart. Its performance analysis establishes where the Xbox One X falls in the tier of PC settings, showing that the console runs around the PC’s “Medium” settings across the board."

I have problems with nearly every game, GTA V especially, game lags and then crashes my entire computer every single time I ever try to play it, Ark Survival Evolved, Yakuza 0, DOOM, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Conan Exiles, Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition, Dying Light, Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition, Absolver, For Honor, and more.

Dragon's Dogma if I end up leaving it on my lap for a prolonged period of time and it heats up (I play on a laptop).

Those are the more significant ones that I have trouble with.

Shadow of Mordor in particular came out of nowhere and lag never changes no matter what settings i put it on. I think it may come down to hardware failure what with it every game reacting the same. (but there are certain games that do not lag at all).

- I forgot to mention that you should always make sure you have your graphics drivers updated. As well as any other drivers and updates for your system.
- Dont run anything in the background while gaming. This includes internet browsers
- You are playing on a laptop so a laptop cooler is pretty much necessary, because when laptops get too hot the cpu and gpu throttle down in speed. Making games run slower than normal.

Even on reasonable settings, you should be able to get higher framerates than 30 on a bunch of those games. Sure, a 1050ti won't run everything at max either, but those games should at least be playable.

While I don't think 16GB of RAM is necessary for all of those games, it couldn't hurt to upgrade (like Inhuman said), but honestly, it sounds like something else is going on.

Honestly, I'd have a tech look at it for you, if I were you.

A cooler is a good idea, definitely. And that other stuff obviously.

GTA V never works well for me. And there's YouTube vids of it running just fine in systems inferior to my own.

From what I hear, it got progressively worse with every update, until people with high end rigs started complaining.

Just found out the first three Ace Attorney games are bundled on IOS for 12 dollars.

Sounds inexpensive enough. But, are they any good?

Was looking into a PlayStation TV, and the damned things are over 100 dollars. Ridiculous.


Vita's are even worse. I miss the days when old technology was 5 dollars, like that junk that it is. Old Atari and Nintendo carts were 10 cents.

Now nothing gaming related is cheaper then 50 dollars, used, and often more. And it never goes down to pre-boom prices. Just like comic books, trading cards,
Lego's, it's ridiculous.

You can get a dreamcast from Gamestop sites that are SUPER cheap.

I feel that I'm really lucky I bought a PS TV when they were still sellin em, as short as that single year was, I got mine for $30 brand new.
