Just three months after the company launches GeForce GTX 1060, NVIDIA has officially unveiled two more Pascal-based graphic cards in the form of GeForce GTX 1050 and GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. As you might be able to guess from their names, these cards have been designated as the most affordable GeForce GTX 10-series cards at the moment.
This is how the cards looked like when compared to their higher-end siblings when it comes to specifications:
According to NVIDIA, the GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 TI will not be available in Founders Edition form which might leave some users disappointed given how good the reference card looked like in the image above. Just like the GTX 1060, both cards don’t support SLI as well.
Nevertheless, users will have plenty to custom versions to choose from various NVIDIA partners including ASUS, EVGA, GALAX, iGame, Inno3D, MSI, Palit, and Zotac. Furthermore, these partners might offer power connectors in their version of GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti in order to provide more headroom for overclocking.
To be available from 25 October onwards, the GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti will carry a starting price of USD 109 (about RM 458) and USD 139 (about RM 583) respectively. As per our previous experiences, those pricings are likely to be different in Malaysia which means we have to wait for announcement from respective NVIDIA partners when it comes to local pricing.
