Let's start with our photo-shoot. A few pages that show the ins and outs with photos, all taken with an in-house photo-shoot of course. As stated there are two models released, the regular 1050 with 2GB graphics memory yet also the 1050 Ti with 4GB memory (which we test). The Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 with 2GB, this one is based on a 640 shader processor GP107-300 Pascal-GPU. The second SKU would be the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, based on a GP107-400 Pascal based GPU with 768 shader processors.
The Palit GeForce GTX 1050 Ti KalmX edition is a boxed in the typical Nvidia black/green style packaging. You will spot a product with a nice and dark PCB and rather sizable passively cooler. These cards will look just fine in a dark themed PC, HTPC and Mini-ITX builds.
As board partners are allowed to release the 1050 Ti model cards in their own configurations you will see many versions, mostly based on customized PCB/components and the obviously mandatory different cooling solutions. This Palit GeForce GTX 1050 Ti KalmX comes with default clocks on both the GPU and memory sub-system. Power (75 Watts) is delivered though the PCIe slot, there is no added 6-pin PCI-Express power connector. Right out of the box the card is clocked like so (Boost Clock / Base Clock / Memory Frequency): 1392MHz / 1290MHz / 7008MHz.
The card itself is a dual-slot solution, it is simply a heat-sink based passive cooler. Above you can spot the backside, everything about the card is simple and relatively small really.
