What? the 470 kicking it all round the room and bounces it off the walls for good measure at 1080P.

Are you just saying this crap to wind people up? IE to troll? are are you literally hallucinating what you want to see?

The RX 460 is a lot closer to the 1050TI than it is to the RX 470.

1050Ti is a joke of a card for that price, needs to be £30 cheaper MINIMUM

The sad thing is,most of the websites omitted the GTX960 or only used the reference GTX960 2GB. That means the normal GTX960 4GB which I have will have performance around the same I suspect.

So all we got is a lower power consumption GTX960 and yet I know mates who plonked GTX960 cards into their prebuilt PCs fine.

I think he just read the first few results on TPU and then jumped the gun on his conclusion and not reading on.

just seen the mark up...... jesus. hope OCUK is kind

AIB RX 470's start at £180, its doesn't want to be more than £140 or its competing directly with the much faster 470.

aye, this will make nvidia and retailers a nice tidy sum if they sell like the 750 Ti did

really needs to be £130 , maybe it would have been with the pound dropping, but then again the RX 470 would have been cheaper too

So the 1050TI starts at £140, IMO thats right on the limit where the 470 offers better value.

much better value. I really do not know what was Nvidia thinking while making GTX 1050 Ti. 1050 is much better in terms of value.

I find it very annoying that these budget cards like the Nvidia 1050 and AMD 460 are never benched with the games they are more interned for, like CSGO, LoL and DOTA

Princey · 25 Oct 2016 at 15:06

I will get a 1050 for my girlfriend's PC, should make a nice upgrade from her GTX 750. It'll only be used for The Sims 4.

There is no need as even these cards will get LOL high framerates.

I am annoyed the GTX1050 isn't cheaper - at that price the RX460 still not move that much in price. At least the GTX1050TI can claim its doing something a bit different.

RavenXXX2 · 25 Oct 2016 at 15:08

£ is ****, would be under £100 before brexit.

The same as the RX460 would be,but ultimately the problem is TPU puts the GTX1050 as being 10% faster for 10% more money.

mark up is high on them

Im surprised by it- but it will be bought and in large numbers
