NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Video Card Pictures, Performance & Release Date Rumors

The folks over at VideoCardz have posted up images of a PCB from what they say is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics card. The images aren’t the greatest quality, but the site says they prove the existence of the NVIDIA GP107 ‘Pascal’ GPU and that a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti video card is coming soon. The board in the images has a 3+1 power phase design with one 6-pin PCIe power header along the top edge of the board. The sticker on the card shows that the GTX 1050 Ti has 4GB of GDDR5 memory.

Who knows if the images are real, but VideoCardz believes these leaked images from a Chinese branded card are real and that the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti launch is going to happen in about two weeks. This could be true as last week 3DMark 11 performance numbers for the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti were posted by Chiphell. On an Intel Core i7-6700K powered system the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti video card scored 10,054 points using the Performance preset and a 3,860 points using the Extreme preset.

The site also leaked GPU-Z images for the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics card, but GPU-Z doesn’t yet fully support this particular model. Some things may still be correctly read since this is a Pascal GPU though. GPU-Z shows that the GP107 GPU on the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti features 768 CUDA cores, 48 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and that the 4GB of GDDR5 memory operates on a 128-bit wide bus. Not bad hardware specs for a graphics card that will likely be aimed at the $149.99 price point. GPU-Z also shows the cards default and boost clock speeds at 1291 MHz and 1392 MHz, respectively. The 4GB of GDDR5 memory is clocked at 1752 MHz or 7008 MHz effective.

If $149 is still too rich for your blood there might be an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 2GB graphics card in the works. Rumors are floating around that if there were such a card it might have 640 CUDA cores, 40 TMUs, 32 ROPs, and be priced at $119.99

Here is a table of how the rumored GeForce GTX 1050 and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti will compare to the GeForce GTX 1060 3GB and GeForce GTX 960 graphics cards.
