I started PC gaming on that GPU, so much love. I had the Gigabyte single fan 1050ti. Best feeling in the world using that GPU, I could finally play PC games. Thanks for video.
I went from a 750ti to a 1050ti back in the day.
I have a friend who uses a 1050ti as a display output on his PC and has a 3090 that he bought for $100 as "dead". The 3090 doesn't display out but will work to "process" games. He assigns the 3090 through windows to a game AND it works!
That's pretty smart tbh, I have seen people do similar with iGPU outputs. Crazy how you can jerry rig things like that.
Some people do this on mining cards that have no diaplay output. Hey they even do it on tesla based card.
his pc case much be very large to do so, it gonna took a lot of slots
damn, first time heard about this method 😮
I need to learn how to do this.
It is amazing how much FSR has gone into rescuing these older low end cards for gaming.
It is tbh, it's actually made it more fun to test these older GPUs, more interesting than 12fps and a big fat cross on them.
Is it fun to see that blur or image artifacting?
@@arenzricodexd4409 There are so many factors involved with any form of upscaling to gaming. The game engine used to build the game. Was FSR employed as the game was being made or was it after the fact and the implementation was an addition to the finished programming? How much involvement did an AMD team have? Are there certain series of graphic cards that will run FSR better than others? There are now six or seven levels of FSR and some games are already on their second installment of FSR. The point being that this is an evolving thing and will always have room for improvement but that it is something that will allow possible longer gaming life to someone's rig is a good thing.
@@arenzricodexd4409 Yes, at least we prefer those little blur and artificat rather than slideshow
@@donaldnemesis393 there are better ways to improve performance without having to resort to those blur and artifacts. and it exist pretty much since the very beginning of PC gaming.
I have the Low Profile GTX 1050 Ti 4G
I love it runs perfect uses 35 watts to gaming 75 Watts !
Using my PCI slot no need for extra power..
Very happy made my Old HP 4 Core 8 Thread I7 860 come back to life.
It's a spare PC and I love it.. Using 1 T SSD 10x faster speeds. loads windows 20 seconds.
Runs great.. No Raid - 0 which is kinda sad but what can you do
I play older games so it runs like a dream I have bought over the years over $2000 in games I have not even opened half lol
NICE VIDEO
That's awesome and those LP versions really are holding prices. I keep coming across them at around the £100 mark on ebay.
Well, I WAS able to get 60fps in the Black Myth Wukong framerate with the 1050 ti. All I had to do was lower the resolution to 900p, graphics settings to Low, framegen to ON, and FSR scaling to 33%. Easy peasy! My stock speed i7-920 probably did not help matters too much.
If FSR3 Framegen doesn't work, you can try LSFG instead. Results may vary, beware input lag.
I hope you become the next big LTT-like channel
I love your videos and you bring joy to my heart
Thanks, kind of gave me a bit of a positive boost
now = 3060 is the minimum for modern gaming
This was my first dedicated GPU played a lot of games on it
1050ti being the 2020's of the 2010's 750ti.
Solid, budget, power and performance friendly.
Granted, it is starting to show it's age, but it's not out of the fight yet.
Though pairing it with a 5800x3D feels a bit odd.
How would it handle the same benchmarks, if it was in a budget oriented build based on say... R5-2600 or 3600?
I ran an EVGA SSC 1050 Ti in combination with an i5-3570K for an uncomfortably long time (Dec. 2016 to May 2023) and I overclocked that thing _as far as it would go,_ never let me down. If memory serves correct I managed +170 MHz on the core for an average clock of ~1950 MHz and +500 on the memory for an effective 4004 MHz clock.
Its age started to show itself by about 2020-21 but nonetheless, it was a very faithful companion.
Nice! It's always good to have that faithful friend in tech. I have an RX 5700XT like that which I can never let go of, it's still at the studio.
@@TechLabUK I have since replaced it (still have the 1050 Ti in a drawer) with an XFX SWFT309 6700 XT, talk about one hell of an upgrade 😂
The predecessor to the 1050 however, was a Sapphire HD 7870 OC that was sadly claimed by the Crimson driver 20% fan speed bug in 2016. I absolutely loved that card and I got it for _an absolute steal!_ $185 USD in late 2012.
@@AliceC993 Yeah that’s a massive upgrade. I love the 6700xt, awesome gpu.
I currently use this GPU, wanted to upgrade to 1080Ti but so hard to find one.
Great to see them still in use tbh.
Don't upgrade to the same generation of gpu. If you're going to upgrade, make sure you get a card at least 1 generation newer so that you will extend how long you have updated drivers for.
I bought a Lenovo office computer with a 290 watt PSU and no PCIe power cable, so I picked up a 1050ti on eBay for under a $100, and pairing it with an I7 4790 and 16GB ram, it worked beautifully for me.
GTX1050ti was the first new card I ever bought, I had a used GTX460 for years not really gaming then, I got given an Oculus Rift CV1 the minimum spec card to run it was a 1050ti so paid £125 for one that served me well for a few years!
Sounds like it has been a good one for many. Weirdly enough I just found my Rift CV1 out at the studio lol
I think the games you mentioned that drop fps while using fsr+fg could be related to Vram problem. Maybe it was running out of video memory.
I would say yes, it is still the minimum. I have one still playing new games, though I'll be switching in a couple of months, new games are 720-900p limited for playable frames which is getting annoying.
Had one - put it in a PC flip, the person was super happy. It's a great GPU, still is. It's faster than an RX 560 and it's actually pretty good price. And it still has driver support. Great card, still usable. Overshadowed by the 1650 but cost per frame is way more in the pocket of the 1050.
I had this same exact card.... plays most games in medium settings
The RX 470 was the deal in 2016...but Etherium arrived in 2017 and the 1050 Ti was the only option...
New game on Steam, The First Descendant actually lists a GTX 1050 TI as the minimum requirement.
No way! Thanks actually cool. Will check the game out as well on it at some point.
This card will perform better with old games like tomb raider 2013 and gta V.
I still use this 1050ti , but it is not strong enough for 1080p, so i use NIS 1600p , its perfect for this resolution.
Gtx 1050ti can play any game at time of release 60fps.
Unlike rtx 3050
Yeah, how things have fallen. not even sure the RTX 3050 is even at the same price yet or not, wasn't when I last checked and is definitely no where near the price of an original 1050
Thanks to 8th gen console initial hardware that is quite weak. So many games from that time are not really that hard to run. PS4 actually often being compared to 750 Ti (although the gpu inside PS4 is a bit faster than 750Ti). The spec for Xbox one is even worse.
@@TechLabUK3050 6GB with MSRP of $170 is already quite a miracle. For more latest gen GPU AIB most likely not want to sell anything cheaper than $300.
I had an MSI 1050Ti, sold it and regret it because I could have used it in an affordable first gaming PC build for my grandson.
That's a shame, would have made a great GPU for a first time system.
I have a old mecer pc with a i5 3470 that would pair perfectly with a 1050ti
Makes u wonder. It's the card just aging well or has tech evolution stopped
I think a combination of things tbh I was talking about this earlier in regards to AMD processors. Like the 1st gen Ryzens are now 7-8 years old but can still be used for modern gaming whereas before that, 7 years before Ryzen, those chips at Ryzen's release were useless. I think games haven't moved that far really because they made the huge leaps with Ray-Tracing etc and it's so demanding they still have to make games work find on older stuff.
Part of it because of resolution. 1080p become mainstream in 2009/2010 but 15 years later almost 60% pc gamer still stick to 1080p res.
I still have it great card but i want to upgrade now
If their was a new minimum for modern gaming, what would you suggest?
I did my first build and i splurged..its a beauty.
I plan on building a second computer but id prefer hitting budget level.
So new minimum? maybe the 2080 ti?
I would say in terms of new minimum for the latest games would have to be something that will at least play Alan Wake 2 ok. Only because this type of demand will start becoming the norm as time goes on. So at least a 6600xt maybe? so at least you have all the right technologies etc. only kind of guessing though, suppose it depends on what you consider as "modern gaming".
For modern gaming in 1080P? I would say ... RX 6600, RTX 2060 ... they are about equivalent, but for the price difference, an RX 6650 XT is very good value and ties the RX 7600 in terms of performance. Depending on which is cheaper go with those. Honestly NVIDIA really aren't in the game at the entry level anymore.
@@TechLabUK any game at 1080 with no big issues. I have a 7900 GRE and i feel its the perfect 1440p gpu, and entry 4k..so i guess that for 1080p is what i would consider a minimum for modern gaming.
at 1080p MAX SETTINGS
@@Typheriaa Even Alan Wake 2? RTX 3060 / RX 6600 XT. The 6600 won't quite cut it.
I cannot believe it did this well!
Me neither tbh, I was quite surprised at how well it coped with those games.
Ratchet and clank is a beautiful game i must say
Just started playing it and with a high end system it looks amazing.
If it can't play portal rtx and alan wake 2, it is not a good gpu
Yeah, not so sure being able to play those is the definition of "a good GPU" but you do you.
"Rx 580"
review amd RX 550
I haven't had chance to pick one up yet as people want silly money for them but as soon as I do I will give it a go.
Haha I still rock a laptop with 1050ti 😄
when you talked about card without power connectors...that reminds me my setup which i want to build 13100T (already have it's interesting because that cpu have UHD770) and want to buy RTX 3050 6GB for SFF photo editing/encoding/decoding PC but i am extremely lazy i did not even install my new 12900KS and already have it for a week...meh 😔but have 4/8 old xeon so i can put 1050 Ti in it and sell that because that new setup will consume as much power as that xeon itself😋😂140W cpu😀but i have to get rid of HDD, originally i wanted to sell my i5 13400 but this CPU is absolutely amazing so i will keep it pair it with um...my A770 LE probably...or buy something new idk maybe RX 6750 XT 🤔🤷♂and when you asked what i am playing well not much genshin impact sometimes gta 5 and even less FH 5 and once a half a year halo reach for a minute or two or ACE Combat 7 but um...usually genshin because this game looks so good at 4k with HDR really something that even cyberbug can't achieve with all of it's traced rays
