I've included those cards, as well as some older GPUs and some cards that are a step up for comparison.Ĭycle through the above images to see the individual gaming benchmarks. The primary competition for the 1050 Ti is a bit nebulous, as the RX 460 4GB costs $20 less while the RX 470 4GB costs $30 more, leaving the 1050 Ti stuck in the middle. I've spot-checked performance with a simulated i3-4360 (dual-core, 3.7GHz) and found most games are completely GPU limited with the GTX 1050 Ti and 1050. I'm using a decidedly non-budget test system, with an overclocked Core i7-5930K, but in most of the games that's not a major factor.

I'm skipping 4K testing entirely, as that's obviously not the target of budget offerings.
NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 680 2GB AND NICE HASH 1080P
Since the GTX 1050 Ti is a budget card, I'm limiting testing to 1080p at medium and ultra quality, with 1440p ultra results showing whether there's room for the card to reach higher in some games.

Of the games tested, only Ashes of the Singularity, Hitman, and Gears of War 4 are tested in DX12 mode on all cards-Gears of course being DX12-exclusive, and the other two because they generally run better in DX12 mode. All of the cards are tested on their 'best' API, which means unless there's a specific reason to prefer Vulkan or DX12 over OpenGL or DX11, most games run best with DX11/OpenGL on the 1050 Ti. I've revamped our gaming test suite to include a bunch of newer releases, and I've ditched some older games, making the benchmarks more relevant.
