Hi, i don't know if this would be the right place to post this, but i found a gtx 1050 ti at a good price and it said that it was pulled out of a Alienware laptop.... I've heard that the hardware in a laptop is a bit different than a deskop, would the 1050 ti that was pulled out of a laptop work for my desktop for mc???
Thank you

Hi Hope
Please don't buy a laptop GPU for a desktop. It will not fit or run. The Geforce laptop cards have far less power compared to the desktop ones with the same name.

As long as it has PCI-E connectors on it (and maybe a power connection slot? some GPUs can get power directly from the PCI-E slot) You should be fine. You might have cooling issues if it doesn't come with some kind of fan on it, though
minecraft doesnt have anything to do with this
anything thats compatible with your model of desktop will work fine with minecraft
