Geforce GTX 1050 / 1050 Ti Thread

[Det0x]

So over to the real interesting news/leak. (for me atleast)

According to GPU-Z sensor data, actual boost clock is much higher than official. It oscillates between 1797 and 1780 MHz.

Talking about overclocking itself, the card has some intense potential. The leaker showed off that the chip was able to do 1797 MHz out of the box, without any voltage adjustment.

http://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-benchmarks-overclock/

I haven't been following this thread that closely, but have it been debunked that this card is made by a 14nm FinFET LPP Process ?
Or is it still on the TSMC 16nm FinFET process like all the other Pascal cards ?

If its the first one, then it can point towards Samsung/Globalfoundries having upped their game very recently.
And that other card stable @ 1475mhz with only ~130w load would make a little more sense.. (other then a new revision of the die/super golden sample)

I dont believe there is a confirmation of the foundry yet.

 

[Sweepr]

There isn't, and one of the leakers seems confident it's TSMC. We'll see.

Monitors alone I will agree, this was dGPUs + Adaptive Sunc Monitors.

How far are you going to stray? The thread title is GTX 1050 TI / GTX 1050. Make card to card comparisons, fine. Video cards are independent of monitors. Make a new thread about combination of video cards and monitors if you want.

RX 460 4GB = $115 AR + $10 off with Promo Code = $105

+

23.6" FreeSync monitor = $159

Total = $274

------------------------

RX 470 4GB = $185

+

23.6" FreeSync monitor = $159

Total = $344

-----------------------


Edit: Since the G-Sync Monitor is 144MHz,

RX 470 4GB = $185

+

24" FreeSync 144Hz monitor = $279

Total = $464

-------------------------

GTX 1050Ti 4GB = $150

+

Cheapest G-Sync Monitor 24" = $340

Total = $490


And that assuming the GTX 1050Ti is only $150

Are the monitors otherwise identical in terms of image quality, input lag, response time, etc.? Otherwise the comparison is not worthwhile.

I havent seen you say the same in CPU topics when people also mention the cost of the Motherboard or the cost of the CPU in relation to the entire PC system. And to tell you the truth, if NVIDIA would support FreeSync we wouldnt have that conversation now because the cost of the Monitor would be the same for everyone. But if someone will get the GTX 1050/Ti and he is interested in new Adaptive Sync technologies, then he has to spend a substantial amount for a G-sync monitor or get a cheaper non Adaptive Sync monitor.
So due to this limitation of the GTX 1050Ti and every NVIDIA GPU, we should also take in to consideration the higher cost of the G-Sync monitors or the better gameplay provided by the combination of an AMD Polaris + FreeSync monitor at the same or lower price the GTX 1050Ti + ordinary monitor brings.

Take a look at this combo

ASUS Strix RX 470 4GB = $185

+

AOC G2460PF 24" 144Hz, 1ms, FreeSync = $210

Total = $395

Hell, this is almost the price of the 24" 144Hz G-Sync monitor alone.

The GTX 1050Ti alone may be faster than the RX 460 but if you are going to get a new monitor then the Polaris + Freesync is the only way.

Are the monitors equivalent in performance, features, and functionality? Otherwise the argument doesn't hold water IMHO.

No need to repeat it, if you know the G-Sync monitor is better in one or more areas then please say so, other wise both monitors are 24", 144Hz etc etc.

Nobody who is in the market to buy 1050Ti is in the market for a G sync monitor. They either already have a monitor that's sufficient or if they want a new one they probably don't want to spend more than $200 on it.

Then that makes the issue real easy, the answer to the scenario you proposed is the 460+freesync monitor.

 

[frozentundra123456]

its not the memory size that people are worried about. there are 8gb and 4gb 480s for example. But people assume the 480 is at least an actual 480 chip.

Not the same situation at all. A cpu usually requires a new motherboard. A new gpu certainly does not require a new monitor
In fact I would much rather invest the extra money a more powerful gpu than a new monitor.

What are you rambling on about? You haven't seen me in CPU topics AT ALL because I rarely post over there. Quit going off topic, it's as simple as that.

The foundry is TSMC... All Pascal are on that node. Only the ARM processors are on Samsung node.

There should be a rule on this forum that posters should provide sources for their claims.

NVIDIA has said straight up that Parker (next Tegra) is TSMC 16FF+ and that its next SoC, Xavier, is also 16FF+.

I really hope this makes its way onto an Android tablet/gaming shield, this would be an insta buy (granted they also release some games compatible with the device too!)

But then these forums would be awfully quiet.

Your usual goalpost shifting. Why do you even bother to post in Nvidia threads. Does AMD make you that much money?
