Full details of the NVIDIA GTX 1050 2GB graphics cardβPascal architecture, 640 CUDA cores, just 75W of power, and no power connector. Learn about features, specifications, new and used market prices.
NVIDIA's GTX 1050 2GB card was launched in October 2016 and is part of NVIDIA's new Pascal architecture family. Compared to the older Maxwell series (e.g., GTX 750 Ti, GTX 950, GTX 960), this card is built on a 14nm manufacturing process, which gives it up to three times better performance-per-watt efficiency.
The card's unique feature is that it operates on just 75W of power, and most variants don't require an additional power connector—the card draws power directly from the PCIe slot. This makes it a very popular upgrade option for systems with older or low-wattage power supplies.
Performance and Architecture
The GTX 1050 has a base clock of around 1354 MHz and a boost clock of 1455 MHz, while factory-overclocked variants (such as the MSI Gaming X, Gigabyte OC) can even reach boost clocks of 1518-1556 MHz. The card features 640 CUDA Cores, 40 texture units, and 32 ROPs.
Support for modern features like NVIDIA G-Sync, Vulkan API, DirectX 12, and Multi-Projection technology makes this card well compatible with many modern games even today. However, the 2GB VRAM does limit it at high settings in heavy-texture games.
Memory and memory bandwidth
This card features 2GB of GDDR5 video memory, running at an effective speed of 7008 MHz over a 128-bit memory interface. This provides memory bandwidth of up to 112 GB/s, which is the same as the GTX 960, but the improved efficiency of the Pascal architecture results in significantly better real-world gaming performance.
Display Output and Connectivity
The GTX 1050 features DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0b, and Dual-Link DVI-D outputs. Output resolutions up to 4096x2160 are supported on the HDMI port and 7680x4320 on the DisplayPort port. This card supports up to four monitors, making it a great choice for those with multi-monitor setups. The PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface makes it easily compatible with any modern motherboard.
Cooling and Build
The card's size remains quite compact, with some low-profile variants measuring just 167mm long, perfect for SFF (Small Form Factor) builds. Most standard variants range from 177mm to 229mm in length. Cooling is handled by single-fan or dual-fan designs (e.g., MSI Twin Frozr, Gigabyte WindForce), which keep the card silent and cool under light loads.
Things to keep in mind during installation
Seat the card correctly in its PCIe x16 slot. Most variants don't require an additional power connector, but look for a 6-pin connector on some factory-overclocked models. A 300W PSU is sufficient. When installing drivers, download the latest Game Ready drivers from NVIDIA's official website, as this card is still included in NVIDIA's current driver support.
Who is this graphics card for?
The GTX 1050 2GB is an excellent choice for users seeking a 1080p gaming experience in a low-power, budget-friendly setup. This card remains highly reliable for esports titles, older AAA games, and medium-setting gaming. Running without additional power connectors, it's also a great choice for upgrading older OEM systems.
