The only thing I am not certain of is that with your mobo being a gen2 pci-e, is the power output of the slot different than gen3. I know the 1050Ti is rated at 75w, so if your motherboard can support that much power, I would go that route. Newer technology, lower power consumption.
If your version of windows 7 is 64 bit, might want to look into adding more ram too. But ddr2 (iirc) may be hard to find.
Thanks for the info,
Iv gone n bought a cheap-o for £12
radeon HD 5770 1gig GDDR5
Iv seen a few threads about this same card running in hashcat with benchmarks, So im hoping that i will manage to get the same results.

I might upgrade my RAM to 4gig or 8gig just to be on safe side.
The power consumption is 175watt
My pc is 460watt
So it wont have any problems there.
i here drivers can be a little fussy with the newer hashcat versions, but there is a way around it as described in one of the forums.
The reason i got this card is because iv got nothing to loose for £12
And other people have run the same card under simlar specs as my pc.
Iv also seen on Youtube a video running the same card on windows 10 in a very low spec pc.
So my specs are looking ok for this card, Plus the card is the same age as my Pc, So its hould be ok,
iv calculated the h/s at
342 billion a day...
2 mil a minute
39500 hash/s

So fingers crossed, everything will be ok as long as i can get the drivers.
But if anybody see's any issues, let me know..
cheers.
