April 28, 20178 yr I got refurbished Dell Optiplex and need video card. I don't want cheap garbage like 210 or 730 etc. Any idea where can I find GTX 1050 or RX 550 ? JIB, Bananait, Invadeit out of stock or don't have it.
April 29, 20178 yr Have you tried "Advice" Used them a few time and I think are cheaper than those you havenentioned, I have used them and they are OK? https://www.advice.co.th/
April 29, 20178 yr Author Yes, nothing. There is on Amazon or Newegg but this is outside of Thailand. The reason I want 1050 it's because power draw is just right for 250w power supply. It's faster than RX 460 and more power efficient. RX 460 requires stronger power supply. I might get RX550 because it has some nice features. I saw that 1030 is coming but who knows when and there is no grantee that it will be low profile available in Thailand.
April 29, 20178 yr Ive got a brand new gtx 1060 sitting here surplus to my needs (Built a new system in march and was used for an hour but is not compatible with my cad software so had to import a a quadro card instead) but its power draw would be too much for you. Send Thomas an email at invadeit and see if he can source what you want, he has helped me out many times in the past. [email protected]
April 29, 20178 yr I.T.City is a good shop. I buy most of my goods from them and never had a reason for complaint yet. If you get a good sales guy, like in my local shop, they will order most things if they possibly can for you. http://www.itcityonline.com/category/D6027
April 29, 20178 yr Author Tnx for answers. I will see what I can do. Dell optiplex can be bought for 5500 thb. Intel i5 3470 4gb ram. Add 4 gb ram more and install 1050ti inside. A killer machine for little money. It's working great so far few days now.
April 29, 20178 yr Jib .. for sure has many 1050 models available. You can reach them at jib.co.th and call them. They can transfer stock to the branch of your liking. Also a good place is Jetcom in Fortune Tower. Their prices are usually lower than other retailers. I will buy a Asus 1080ti strix oc from them next week. Another place, if you don't mind paying more, is invade it.

April 30, 20178 yr Seems like the combination of LP and GPU is challenging here? I did a quick search on pantip, found one potential source: http://www.ascenti.co.th/ but not sure. https://pantip.com/topic/36338125 Maybe ask a Thai to search for you, check in gaming forums, walk around Fortune and Panthip talking to folks.
April 30, 20178 yr I was browsing the NVDIA site and all 1050's were out of stock. I guess that will disappear soon.
April 30, 20178 yr Lazada seem to have suppliers with stock - see here.

May 1, 20178 yr Author I really have no idea why there is no any decent low profile gpu available in Thailand. Just imagine price/performance ratio with Dell Optiplex. For 11000 thb i5, 8gb ram, 1050ti. I even found in Croatia, both, MSI and Gigabyte 1050ti.
May 1, 20178 yr Author Found it on http://www.lazada.com.my (Malaysia) http://www.lazada.com.my/msi-nvidia-geforce-gtx1050ti-4gt-lp-dual-fan-ddr5-graphics-card-28047542.html?ff=1&rb=1201

May 4, 20178 yr Author I gave up because price of low profile 1050ti is 6000 + thb. For little more I get RX 570.

May 19, 20178 yr Author Just got an answer from Thomas Skyum - invadeIT. Well, now I know. Quote Thank you for your mail. You are absolutely right, why are those cards not sold in Thailand indeed. The Thailand IT distributors are quite notorious for only importing all the mainstream models and not anything that's just a little bit special. We can't do anything unfortunately to change that, these giant distributors completely decide what's being sold in Thailand.
