Gigabyte outs a threefold of GeForce GTX 1050 3GB graphics cards
Last month we already mentioned the product page of the 3GB OC edition of the GeForce GTX 1050. Two new models have made an entry though, these all are the 3GB models of the GTX 1050 (or should we say 1050 Ti).
The Geforce GTX 1050, the 3GB versions of the GeForce GTX 1050 are a real thing. It really is a 1050 Ti that is cut down with a 96-bit memory bus. Three models with three different coolers are launched by Gigabyte now, a common model with one fan, a larger version (OC) with two fans and a small low-profile version, which is equipped with a smaller fan.
The first model as shown above is the Gigabyte GTX 1050 3GB, it has a single fan. The clock rates at 1417 MHz base and 1556 MHz boost clock rates and its fitted with display port, HDMI and DVI.
Next up is the GeForce GTX 1050 3GB OC which we talked about last month. It is equipped with a large cooler with two fans. It has clocks at 1442/1582 MHz.
Got a low profile chassis? No?, well 99.99% of the consumers do not, so I won't hold that against you ;-) But Gigabyte launches the GeForce GTX 1050 3GB OC Low Profile as well. This video card has clock speeds of 1430/1569 MHz and this model has been fitted with a second HDMI port.

Anyone figure out what this card is good for, bang for the buck-wise? My best guess is a 4K HDR home theater PC and, well, that's about it AFAIK.

Not that I see a point or a real gap between the 1050 Ti or 1050 (if memory serves me well, there wasn't THAT much of a difference there), but... if the rumor mill is sort of true and we should really be seeing Nvidia's next gen by... Say August/September or whatever, before Christmas season. Sure, they generally tend to bring the bigger toys before, the 1180 or 2080, or whatever xx80 they may bring. This one will be have a very short lifespan I believe? Unless they aren't really planning on releasing the lower tiers anytime soon?
