Our Verdict: Upgrading from GTX 960M to GTX 1050 Ti Mobile is not recommended as it is less than 30% of improvement in performance. In general, a reasonable upgrade is between 30% and 50% or more to justify the purchase of new hardware. The price/performance ratio is much better for GTX 1050 Ti Mobile . Share Your Comments 0
