GTX1050 to be launched in October

No power connector is nice for certain builds, but that's otherwise pretty lousy performance for $150. You'd be a fool to not pony up the few extra bucks for an RX470.

EDIT: Unless it can clock really well. Pretty low stock clocks for a Pascal card.

Must keep it with in the 75 Watt PCIe power limit or Toms Hardware would have to make up silly reasons why its ok to go over that on this card. ;)
 
GTX 1050 Ti have no power connector and GTX 960 performance within 75W power limit is impressive.

Will be interesting to read reviews to see if GTX 1050 Ti can OC higher to get close to GTX 970 performance while still within 75W power limit.

No chance.

The 960 is little more than 50% the performance of the 970, the fastest 1060 on future marks firestrike top 10 is only 12‰ faster than what I run my 970 at 24/7.
 
If it is bus powered I think the major limitation will be the power limit.

However,remember even at the poor exchange rates we have today that is faster than GTX960 level performance for around £140. If the pound had been like it was when the GTX960 launched,the card would be launching at around £120. The GTX960 2GB launched at $200.

GTX 1050 Ti launch 18 October 2016
GTX 1050 launch 26 October 2016

Look like here wont be only 2 GP107 variants, 1 more are on way called either GTX 1050 SE or GTX 1040 with 512 CUDA cores and 2GB for $99, cheaper than RX 460. GTX 1050 SE or GTX 1040 with 512 CUDA cores would have around 1.5 TFLOPs and at $99 trade blow with RX 460 in games benchmarks.
 
Yup it will be interesting to see how well it overclocks.

It will either be a good clocker, showing that the Samsung 14nm process is ok and it is just the way Polaris has been designed that limits it clock speed, or it wont over clock anywhere near as much as the other Pascal cards and that will show that the 14nm process isn't as good for high clock speeds.

Sounds like a great HTPC card so long as it retains 4K and HDR display support.

There's also the added variable of it being Samsung themselves vs. GloFo.

It could be the 14 LPP process is very good, but GloFo ****** it up.

That is very true, is the GP107 being produced by Samsung themselves or at Glofo which of course is using Samsung's process ?

Meant to have a similar price to a GTX950:

XD Good luck with that. Knowing the current gen of video cards, it will likely be priced at least £50 more lol. A day and age where the x60s are priced like x70s, I have zero expectations or care for another release claiming to be 'good value' at the budget end.

Now the big cards like 1080ti or Zen, those will be the exciting ones. Even if it turns out it costs an arm and a leg to get one. At least they can't lie about pricing there, we know it'll be bad already.
