The GeForce GTX Pascal GPU based graphics cards are all DisplayPort 1.2 certified and DP 1.3/1.4 Ready, enabling support for 4K displays at 120 Hz, 5K displays at 60 Hz, and 8K displays at 60 Hz (using two cables). HDMI 2.0 is supported so that you can drive Ultra HD monitors at 60 Hz (if compatible).

The GeForce GTX 1050 (Ti) takes advantage of Pascal 14nm FinFet architecture, and with just over 3 billion transistors it has 768 shader/stream cores on the 4GB Ti model. The memory is GDDR5, it’s a rather nice product and proper succesor to the GeForce GTX 950/960 and competes with the AMD Radeon RX 460 and perhaps even 470 models.

The GPU empowering the product is called the GP107 GPU, which is Pascal architecture based. It has either 768 or 640 CUDA Cores, while texture filtering is performed by 48 (1050 Ti) or 40 (1050) texture units.

The cards have a 75 Watt TDP, 75 Watts is already delivered though the PCIe slot, but most AIB partners will add a 6-pin power header for that little extra in tweaking as well as to differentiate the product from the competition. So another 75 Watts can be pushed through the single 6-pin PEG (PCI Express Graphics) power connector. 75 Watts + 75 Watts = 150 Watts available.
