GeForce MX330 and MX350 leaks: Reused MX250 and GTX 1050 (updated)
Specs of the upcoming entry-level mobile GPUs, the MX330 and MX350, have leaked. The hardware IDs are indicating a Pascal release, and that means this release is a refresh.
Nvidia will be using the very same chip for MX330 as for the MX250 based on the MX250 and GTX 1050. Even the clock frequencies are nearly identical. The MX330 would be a respin, the GP107 GPU of the GTX 1050 will empower the MX350, with ine change, a memory bus sliced in two now making it 64 bits wide. Two leaked benchmarks, 3DMark Time Spy and Fire Strike, show that the MX350 is performing at GTX 960M and GTX 1050 (laptop variant) level.
Updated: the SKUs now are listed at NVIDIA.

Pretty much everyone does this nowadays, take a card and put it down in the stack and sell it on... As long as they drop the price because its not new tech then i think this is fine, specially since they a lower end models, more used for light work rather than full brute gaming, then again 1050 is fairly decent gpu, so that being sold cheaper or more laptops is not end of the world.

The 1050 was and still is a very decent GPU especially for this intended purpose.
You have top-end Pascal, that most definitely won't be used in those. Instead, some bottom of the barrel stock.

Most GPUs do fine for their intended purpose; seems many here forgot the that there are some many more uses for a computer other than gaming.

If it wasn't made clear to anyone: these are mobile chips. 1050 performance in a laptop isn't bad at all. It is very common for laptops to get GPUs that are 1 or 2 generations behind, because they're usually equipped with leftover chips that perhaps still work but can't clock high enough for desktop use.

It has been a few weeks on https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-MX350-Laptop-Graphics-Card.448881.0.html - noticed it and thought that it's pretty depressing as a gaming device.
