Rumor: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 2GB and 1050 Ti 4GB

Rumor: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 2GB and 1050 Ti 4GB

Over in the Asian countries there's quite a bit of speculation on the GeForce GTX 1050. Apparently there will be two models released, the regular 1050 with 2GB graphics memory yet also a 1050 Ti with 4GB memory

According to benchlife the replacement series for the GeForce GTX 950 will be the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 with 2GB, this one would be based on a 640 shader processor en-counting 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 acrds will be priced at 119 and 139 USD respectively. 
  

 GTX 1060 6 GBGTX 1060 3 GBGTX 1050 TiGTX 1050GTX 950
GPU GP106-400 GP106-300 GP107-400 GP107-300 GM206-250/251
Shader processors 1280 1152 768 640 768
TMU's 80 72 48 40 48
ROP's 48 48 32 TBA 32
GPU freq 1,506 MHz 1,506 MHz 1,290 MHz 1,354 MHz 1,024 MHz
Boost freq 1,709 MHz 1,709 MHz 1,382 MHz 1,455 MHz 1,188 MHz
Mem freq 2,002 MHz 2,002 MHz 1,752 MHz TBA 1,653 MHz
Mem size 6 GB GDDR5 3 GB GDDR5 4 GB GDDR5 2 GB GDDR5 2 GB GDDR5
mem bus 192-bit 192-bit 128-bit 128-bit 128-bit
TDP 120W 120W 75W 75W 90W/75W

 

The GeForce GTX 1050 would get you 1.9 TFlops of (single precision) performance with 2.2 TFlops for the GTX 1050 Ti model. Both cards would fit in a 75 Watt TDP and thus will not require an external power connector.

You wont hear complains about the 750ti because it was a proper (budget) gaming card and served its owners well, the 950 already chokes after only 9 months since I got it in "well" optimized games, don“t defend it, it is garbage.

The 750Ti is slower than the 950 and the people I'm talking about are still using the 750Ti. It's obviously going to depend on what games your playing and what you expect out of it -- but pretty much everyone I know that buys cards like that aren't expecting much.

@denial
He was posting that physx is obsolete, not the cards..

And i still dont understand why ppl would buy two separate cards instead of spending all on a (faster) single card..

He wrote both and he's said that the 750Ti/950 are obsolete/worthless before - pretty much everything he posts is some kind of bash on Nvidia. It's getting tiring.

"Obsolete"

I have two friends that game daily on 750Ti's - none of them complain about the performance. Getting tired of seeing the same people post the same nonsense in every thread.

750TI is a good card (i have mounted 5 or 6 and they are really happy with it), but if you have the choise of a 750TI at 100 Euro and a 950 at 110 (and a 1050 at around that price :) ), wich one would you chose?

i think he talk about PhysX too wich is "obsolete", yes and no
no because it is a good way to recycle your old GPU and it look more "better" with than without, and yes because you don't need to buy a GPU for this now.

From what I saw it needs to have fast vram, at least Gddr5.. E.g. 740GT with 128bit ddr3 20-30GB/s is useless, even cpu would do better job, with Gddr5 80GB/s its actually worth it.


This 1050 has 110GB/s and gpu pixel/texture fillrate perf. around 580GTX, this should be more then enough for a physx gpu :nerd:



My recent physx game is KillingFloor2, gibs are ok, but once there is a ton of fluid- blood it starts to cripple gpu with gpu usage drops, sometimes it can work ok but then tasks gpu too much and jitters/stutters by lots of fluids (lowering it in cfg.ini helps too, but still not it).

And an FYI, if you put a slow card in PhysX mode, the main super duper GPU will stall while waiting for the slow card to finish.
It'll sit there waiting, wasting time because the it doesn't have the solutions for the next frame.

not at all, PhysX is not a huge work if you do only that on the GPU, even a 740 2gig is far than enough in 99% of the case.

most of the time issue are due to misconfiguration (ex: select "auto" instead of "dedicated" for the GPU)

and/or driver issue like fermi and maxwell mixed on W10 (now solved btw) or modded driver (using tesla as phyx card for gaming... solved too :) ).

Of course better GPU is always better... but you really surestimate the PhysX computation's need...

*edit* PhysX take out job from CPU, even a 5** or 6** middle class serie do this special calculation faster than CPU, so why let it do this work while an old (obsolete lol) GPU can do it better.
