As someone who has used this for years when I got it for $50, the GTX 1050 was one of the best GPU purchases I made and still made. I still play on console. I remember wanting to do streaming and recording. GTX 1050 support does wonders thanks to Nvidia's support(NVENC and Shadowplay). It still has DX12 support. It got the NIS from Nvidia and FSR in titles. Used Losseless Scaling as well. Played majority of every title I wanted on it. I still played Metro Exodus and Jedi Fallen Order by the lowest settings with every trick. I used it for video compression in XMedia Encoder. It's not fast, but it does just as well as any other Nvidia card compression. I could play and stream Genshin Impact on it high settings at 1080p 60fps with my buddies. I could play any titles really with little performance hit. I also remember modding the card with a dead R9 270x GPU cooler and fan. After putting plenty of thermal pads and regular amount of paste on a bigger cooler. I could get 2000mhz core and 4000mhz memory. I bought it for $50 cause it was thought to be broken. It wasn't. It just had a bad fan to cool it. Turns out though. I won the silicon lottery. And at no better time too. Especially when COVID hit and all the GPU prices skyrocketed. This GTX 1050 powered though it all. I did all of this while transferring from system to system. All with only 2gb Vram. And with no high power input(PCIe connector). And all for around $50. The GTX 1050 2gb is the best GPU I ever had. I'm now using a Tesla M40 12gb with all it's workarounds and a dead GTX 1070 blower style cooler and fan. But dang, my GTX 1050 2gb. I will never sell it. Happy with the videos as always.

In recent months I've found being willing to go 720p low/medium settings opens up a lot of room for even really old cards. New PSU is arriving next week though, to replace the one that died from a power surge.

[@christianmino4073]

What blows my mind is how everyone tries to go for a 1080p gaming experience from an old Dell/pc when 720p is what you should be aiming for in a budget build because it doesn’t look bad at all, a few years ago most of us had tvs in our house that MAXED OUT at 720p so for anyone who says 720 Peet Luxe bad and isn’t true HD basically is a clown. I’m not saying that 1080 P doesn’t look better. Of course it does. There’s a lot more pixels there but 7:20 PM can also deliver you a beautiful gaming experience and like you’re saying and showing here it’ll help boost the frame rate from 30 to 60 and be completely honest I will not play a game at 30 frames per second. I just want maybe I’ll try Eldon ring, But that’s just because of how much everybody was talking about it and saying how amazing it is. I kind of just want to try it out to be completely honest I would not be able to play through the entire game and 30 frames at minimum I would need 45 frames that still not good for me but you lower the resolution is 720 and shit I’ll even lower the graphics quality low for a game like Elden ring that I want to try as long as I can get 60 or 45 frames if that’s possible and Elden ring I’m not sure if that’s an option like it is in Genshin Impact. If you go with 7:20 PM in mind medium settings, you can get a great gaming experience so that’s what you should do in my opinion. If you aim for 720 P medium settings, you’ll be happy with You’re $150 PC

you should definitely try implementing Arma 3 as one of your benchmarks, its a performance hog when played in multiplayer (especially King of The Hill and Warlords servers). Most mid-range or budget systems can barely touch 60+ fps even at low to low-ish medium settings in multiplayer. Would love to see you add that in for future tests :D

[@Joaquin-nv3cr]

I think that's because Arma 3 is more CPU bound, fps won't change much if you have a 1050 or a more powerful card I can say that my 1050 can definitely run Arma 3 single player missions with medium-low settings at 60+ fps, but it starts dropping when you raise the draw distance or the amount of AI

When GPUs first shot up in price all the way back in 2017 due to bitcoin mining (before the copycat coins popped up), I couldn't get my hands on any GPU for a good price. I settled for the 1050 since it wasn't severely above MSRP on marketplaces like ebay. I used it for a few months before I found a used 980ti for $220.

My personal recommendation is the GTX 660. I've found some for $65-$70 and can play a lot of titles. For someone with old integrated graphics or GPUs like a GT 710 no matter the version, it's a huge upgrade at a nice price. It can even play some modern games, where still cheaper but older options like the GTX 460 cannot. For the AMD side, a HD 7850 is a pretty close equivalent in price and performance, depending on the game. Of course, anyone that already has a better card or wants to play anything recent at 1080p should stick to at least a GTX 780 or a GTX 960, the latter preferred, whichever is cheaper. Or something like an R9 280/HD 7950 or RX 560 for the AMD side.

i have non ti gtx1050 but with 4gb vram (hp laptop) with i5-8300h. it's still enough to run most of new games in 1080p. the only one so far that was not really great was 'Medium' when played in two worlds simultaneously. fps was dropping to about 15... well, still completed the game! would be nice if You'd make a review of theese mobile versions with 4gb vram one day too. cheers mate!

[@vinaydivecha8407]

Just upgraded to rtx 3060 from this graphics played so many games on it.

[@keashaneverts4452]

what was the experience my friend? i just found a 4060 for the same price as 1050 on FB market, being listed right close to eachother lol i cant belive the 4060 is crashing in price here, now im tryna get a 6700xt from a 1050, i cant wait to see what my Games look like

[@Starman1941]

I just ordered rx 6600 to replace my gtx 1050. Can't wait for it to come, am preparing for a big shock.

[@newkie2008]

At 900p this card can handle everything I play and the most demanding I have is BF1, since I always play online competitive games with everything low and sometimes with no sound, the experience is always great and is very quiet. Since the prices for gpus are crazy high in my country, I'm glad for everyday my non Ti 1050 gives me

[@H4L0GUY117]

did the last video get deleted or something or something on my end or...?

Ultra Performance FSR, also known as "I forgot my glasses mode"

[@Toma-621]

If you’re content with locking the fps at 30, dips below 30 will occur way less often at the higher quality settings and will give an experience similarly to consoles if not better

[@gtPacheko]

I'm using the mobile 4GB version of this card, it actually works pretty well. Cyberpunk 2077 with XeSS really surprised me.

[@yapusqbua4481]

you are probably the unique channel who test affordable gpu almost for everyone and dont talk like buying a 3080 was reachable for everyone

[@itsrisexcel]

I just got a ZOTAC GTX 1050, I have never been happier. I had integrated graphics my whole life and now I can play a lot of better games!

[@DeadPixel1105]

The 1050 Ti was my first graphic card purchase when I got into PC gaming back in 2018. I've seen upgraded twice (from 1050 Ti to 1660, and then 1660 to 1660 Ti), but the 1050 Ti served me very well. I think it's a very good GPU for someone just starting their journey in the world of PC gaming.

[@gaga1298]

why u jump from 1660 to 1660 ti?

[@hzwinip]

Started my pc journey with a 1050ti in an optiplex with an i7 2600. Was a great little pc, kinda wish I kept it. Got the bug though. Went to i5 8400 and an i5 9600k. Bought a 1660ti and a 6600xt. Traded my 1660ti for a 1080ti. Then traded my 6600xt for a 3060ti. Pretty happy gaming in vr playing racing sims with steering wheels.

[@costascostas1760]

Nice video! I am itchy to find a low profile for a custom case pc I have!

[@Hubwood]

Since you also have to install and configure RDR2 and GTA5 many times each year: Do you also hate their graphics menu as much as I do? No Presets, not accepting changes alot of the time. A pain in the ....

[@piima113]

Have one and it still chugs along in 2022, Also, it's decent for e-sports titles on medium settings

[@thebyzocker]

just bought an rx 580 8gb to replace my 1050 2gb and im really impressed with the 580 so far, i have gotten about 75% of the peformance you had in your testing as having 3 monitors connected to this card just drops the peformance so much but that also meant that rdr2 was in the 24fps range on the lowest possible settings with fsr and everything on 720p much happier with my 580 now and i hope it lasts as long as the 1050 it replaced even if its the same age

[@mapesdhs597]

(What happened to the Far Cry Primal video?...)

[@devson--]

I remember back in 2019 trying to run battlefront 2 with the highest settings on this thing + with a pentium g4400. Describing that as unplayable would be definetliy not enough... Good thing I upgraded

[@dallesamllhals9161]

I remember playing ANYTHING 3D before 3dfx Voodoo. Describing that as unplayable would be definetliy not enough... ;-P

[@devson--]

@Narkomancers most likely yeah, I also had 4gb of ram but I was a total pc noob back then, I coudln't even list all the parts that a pc contains so 💀

[@xorkatoss]

fun fact: I bought the GTX 1050 2GB in 2017 and later "upgraded" the the GTX 1050 Ti 4GB somewhere around 2020 before the prices skyrocketed LOL! BUT I really regret not buying a used RX570/RX580 when they were selling for 120-150 euro :(

[@ShroomRPG]

This thing costs £50 and runs Cyberpunk better than a base PS4, that's honestly not bad

[@AllieRX]

It's also a great card for emulators like Dolphin (GameCube/Wii), PCSX2 (PS2), and even the Wii U emulator Cemu.

[@ozqu]

I was using a 1050 lowprofile for the longest time, honestly for what it is, it performed great

[@TechDweeb]

In Elden Ring, if you use the anti-aliasing option it will make the shadows less 'jumpy'. Apparently the anti-aliasing applies to the shadow map as well. That's one option that I always put on high because without it those flickering shadows are super distracting.

[@alibozkuer5022]

Hi great video as always but could you add valorant to your list too? Especially to these lower-end graphics card tests.

[@tjw6550]

Just bought a used 1050ti for 50€. Will give it to a friend of mine who is still rocking her HD3870 with 512MB of VRAM. While still a low end card, that 1050ti should be a large upgrade for her occasional gaming sessions.

[@michaelthompson9798]

Once again the Pascal GTX1000 series still showing it’s dominance and defiance while still gaming in many of todays generation of titles for a good price 🥰🤩🤯. The one and only generation of gpus Nvidia produced that people loved 🥰 and still hold to till this very day!

[@Lucas_andos]

Just sold mine that I used for a year or 2. It was a great card but the 1080p 30fps was getting a bit old. I got an RX570 4gb for Christmas And it was a huge improvement

[@Dagroo]

Someone needs to make an evolution of those plants growing

[@aleksazunjic9672]

Main competitor for GTX1050 was and is RX 460 2 GB . They have similar performance nowadays (AMD card slightly better) and price . For a slightly more cash you could get RX 460 or RX 560 with 4GB VRAM. RX 550 with 2 GB RAM is VRAM is slightly slower. Overall, with all of these cards you could hope for 1080p low with some help from FSR Pair with 10100f and h410 chipset, and you have decent system that could be upgraded in the future.

[@FunkyM217]

I'd be interested to see where the new (to the open market) RX 6400 sits with regard to older hardware.

[@mashP]

I still have this Zotac dualfan GTX 1050 non Ti and paired with i5 3470 and 16gb ram, I'd say it's still doing good job for me in 3 years now because the games that I played mostly is MMORPGs and FPS like Apex Legends, Lost Ark, GTAV, and ARK Survival Evolved. But Im planning to upgrade soon to atleast i5 9th gen and gtx 1660ti or super just waiting these to pop up in marketplace for a little bit cheap
