![]() Remember the GTX 960 4GB from last year? It delivers virtually identical performance to the GTX 1050 Ti-yes, while using more power, but otherwise they're the same level of performance. Looking at some older cards, things get a bit messier. Even in normally AMD-centric games like Ashes and Doom, the 1050 Ti holds a 25-30 percent lead over the RX 460 4GB. #GITX 1050 TI 1080P#Elsewhere, Nvidia's advantage can be huge, like the 40-50 percent lead in Civ6, 35-40 percent in Fallout 4, and as much as 70 percent in GTA5 (not that either card really handles 1080p ultra very well there). It's not even a close matchup, really-RX 460's best games in our suite are Hitman and Deus Ex, where the 1050 Ti is still around 10 percent faster in most cases, though the 460 does pull off a tie in DXMD at 1080p medium. The GTX 1050 Ti stakes a claim to the fastest $140-ish budget GPU on the market, easily beating the RX 460 4GB-though that card does cost a bit less. 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. 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. ![]()
