NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Release Date, Latest News & Updates: Upcoming Cards Ready for Competition; Oculus Rift Compatibility Questioned?

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 is one that many have started to see as a prerequisite in today's gaming community. With the traits to almost outweigh everything else in the market, players are to take note of what there is to expect with this gaming masterpiece.

There is a certain liking that has surrounded the Nvidia products, namely the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti as of late, given that their release dates are fast approaching. Without further ado, fans can bask in the difference of the aforementioned cards, dependent on their specific needs for the time being.

According to PC World, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 comes with 640 CUDA cores, which is officially clocked at 1,345MHz initial and with the capacity to boost up to 1,455MHz for better performance. Alongside it, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is rigged with 768 CUDA cores clocked at a handsome 1,290MHz all the way to 1,392MHz. It is an apparent fact that both are created around a fresh GP 107 graphics processor which contains all the feats of Nvidia's Pascal-based GTX 10-series cards respectively.

Recent reports claimed that due to the 75W max consumption of both the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, these cards can pull the necessary power directly from the PC's motherboard. This will then ultimately make the upgrading of people with pre-built "big box" computers a lot easier than expected.

Nvidia has taken pride in their product, stating that the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti are notably fast, especially the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti being 40 percent faster on average than the rivaling product. Presumably, this competition is the Radeon RX 460, though it was not bluntly named. While in the talk of performance, it is yet to be confirmed as to whether both NVIDIA GTX 1050 products will be made compatible with the Oculus Rift PC requirements, though it is already thought to at least meet the standards.

Fans can get their hands on the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti for $139 on October 25, whereas the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 will arrive on or before November 8 for $109. Stay tuned for more news and updates here at GamenGuide.
