GeForce GTX 960  vs 1050 Ti 

Their*

probably not

Nvidia gimp their old cards. Regardless if they are still beefy and high specced. Infuriating isn't it?

i7 7700hq? dude thats a laptop? and no, the i7 7700hq doesnt bottleneck a 960, it can run a 1080

stay on your 960 if you have one, if your building a new pc, go for the new 1050ti

lol dont go sli on 960, its not that big a change plus it sip to much power, just sell your 960 and buy a 1060 ;)

OMG...Are you really so stupid to think in this way? It smth like conspiracy theory. I mean this fucking bullshit about "NVIDIA RUIN MY CARD!1!!!11!". Proof: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBkGu4Wd7vg

I was trying to compare to see what one I should use to game with. I have the GTX 1050ti and the GTX960 FTW. After reading this I still don't know what one to use. if any one has some advice it would be welcome.

I was hopping this would help me decide what graphics card to use. Either the GTX 1050ti or the GTX 960 ftw. Both Cards are 4gb cards but after reading the comparison I'm still not sure witch on would be better for me to game with. If anyone has a opinion id be glad to hear it.

lol bollocks a 960 is not a bloody GT 630

not a good idea for that card it bottlenecks real bad with the 2 gigs research it

You're insane. You're saying get the RX 470 (at roughly ~ $450+ as of 07/03/17) vs a $149 card? LOL. And AMD at that? LOL

the 1050ti is literally pretty much a new gen 960 thats a bit faster

It's because nvidia want us to buy new graphics card, so they fake us GPU

@disqus_1A7WII1Q8a:disqus Hi, If i own a gtx 1060, and an i7 7700hq, will the cpu bottleneck it? thanks!

I know the feeling(A10 7000 Series), the Cpu really bottlenecked it, As soon as I upgraded to an i5 it doubled my fps, I went from 45 fps on med settings in bf1, to 90fps on ultra. Consider a CPU upgrade

I had a 960, and it kept getting solid update love until I got a 1060. But I only had it for about 2 years, so I may be one of those impatient adopters you mentioned :D I think part of it is that AMD cards also tend to be huge workhorses. My last AMD card held strong across three generations, because it was just beefy as anything. Could it do physics? Obviously not PhysX, and even heavy applications of Havoc made it struggle. Could it multisample? Only in the most minimal way. But it could also passably run games for which it was well below the minimum requirement. I do agree that Nvidia should do more to support their older cards, however, since every generation of NVidia cards seems to include at least two models that exist purely for future-proofing. Imagine, for instance, that you went out and bought a Titan Black right before the 1070 landed. I imagine the fury would be palpable - it's so bad that EVGA, the poster child for elitist system builders if there ever was one, has a buyback program so their customers can actually afford to keep current.

It very well could be better and/or more relevant driver driver support. Nvidia likes to keep there newer cards more relevant when it comes to newer game titles and as a result tend to neglect there driver support on their older cards even though the 960 is practically 50% beefier and in all reality isn't even all that old the lack of care on Nvidia's part for there old toys speak for itself. This is why I am starting to become an AMD fan even if only for their graphics cards because AMD's target market tend to buy many of their different cards at all ages and price ranges driver support doesn't seem to be lacking on most of their cards causing their cards to age better with newer titles. Nvidia's clientele however, seem to only want the latest and the greatest causing a lack of interest in Nvidia's time on keeping up with driver support for newer titles on their older cards inadvertently causing a snowball effect that makes Nvidia pump out another latest and greatest card for everyone else to go spend their money on so they can neglect the drivers for their last line of cards. So sorry if this sounds at all salty I really do think that Nvidia has some great graphics cards I just see so much wasted potential on great products with a lack of interest in keeping their drivers up to date but with all the fanboy's waving the Nvidia flag as their are can you really blame Nvidia.

no

i m getting gtx 1050Ti 4gb Inno3d tomorrow getting it for cheap rate. Currently, i have been running Gtx570 HD since 4 years lol i think i should get immense performance boost on major tittles of games Will keep it for one more year till i can afford Gtx1060 6gb Right now, my gtx570HD is failing in Assassins Creed Unity n few more games. Batman arkham city is giving me 30fps which is decent though

I'm running the 1050 ti and have managed a steady 1822mhz overclock on air. This card is a beast when it comes to 1080p gaming. If only my CPU (A10 6800k) could keep up :\

Weirdly, looking at the 1050 vs the 960, the 1050 loses in benchmarks, but wins handily in actual games. Is that because the games have more going on in the backend?

if the 960 becomes extremely cheap... SLI

Not at all just save up the extra money and get a 1060 or rx 480 or better you will be kicking your self after the purchase if you buy the 1050ti tbh.

I have a Radeon R7 265 2GB videocard (which is essencialy a HD 7850 2GB rebranded, but with slightly higher clock speeds). Do you recommend upgrading to 1050Ti 4GB?
