The Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 and the GTX 1050 Ti are a pair of affordable new graphics cards designed to ease introductions into PC gaming. Let's compare both.
Starting from the built, the GTX 1050's brand-new "GP107" graphics processor is built using the 14nm process at an undisclosed manufacturer.
At benchmark, the GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti can't achieve a maximum of 1,500MHz even when boosting. Though Nvidia says it was able to "hit speeds in excess of 1,900MHz with ease" when overclocking the cards internally.
Nvidia uses 2GB (GTX 1050) and 4GB (GTX 1050 Ti) memory capacities to differentiate between its two cards, but each offers different performance levels as well.
The pricier GTX 1050 Ti packs the full-fat version of the GP107 GPU, with 768 CUDA cores and 48 texture units across its six Pascal streaming multiprocessors.
The cheaper GTX 1050 features a higher clock speed, but shaves off a streaming multiprocessor, resulting in 640 CUDA cores and 40 texture units
Both cards offer 7Gbps memory speeds over a 128-bit bus, buoyed by Nvidia's superb bandwidth-saving delta color memory compression.
But more importantly, both cards draw under 75W of power, allowing them to slip seamlessly into many prebuilt boxed PCs.
The GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti offer all the same features as Nvidia's other "Pascal"-based GTX 10-series cards, including goodies such as HDR support, Ansel super screenshots, Fast Sync, simultaneous multi-projection, performance-boosting multi-resolution shading, and more.
Nvidia says the GTX 1050 lineup is capable of playing modern games at 60-plus frames per second at 1080p resolution, at either Medium or High graphics settings.
The $109 GeForce GTX 1050 and its bigger brother, the $139 GeForce GTX 1050 Ti are very good deals at an affordable price. However, the GTX 1050 Ti offers faster processor and has 2GB more memory than the GTX 1050.
