Registered 9 years agoI'm sure it would be overkill, and no idea about power supply etc, but it's only another £15 ish for a 4gb 480...

This all feels like overkill for such an old machine. Have you looked on ebay? Could probably pick up something that's a better balance for the machine for a lot less. -

A motherboard bundle later on to upgrade the rest or even use it as a media pc and get another. -

Meh, hadn't seen that story before but my 980Ti is fantastic, not had any issues with it.
Can't imagine a card in the £135 bracket for a PC like this anyone is going to notice anything wrong with it. £135 for the 4GB 1050ti is a great deal! -

"So apparantly it is common for Palit to submit better samples to the press opposed to what they sell in the stores: Here's an answer from Palit which makes clear as to this apparantly was done on purpose"
looks like Guru3D pussied out and deleted the rest after pressure from Palit though. I remember reading all about that whole fucking episode. Fuck Palit.
I mean you could link a story about Windows Vista being completely shite, doesn't really mean Windows 10 suffers from the same issues.
Recent reviews from both media and owners disagree with your opinion, which seems to be based on something that is 7 years old. -
