This MSI card is a near-stock GTX 1050 Ti, but that's not a bad thing. It performs well for 1080p gaming and is affordable, plain and simple.

Good basic card for 1080p gaming; Cool and quiet; No PCIe power connector required; and 300-watt power-supply requirement

Auto-boosts well; but doesn't overclock much beyond the out-of-box OC; Bare-bones software

Impressive...once we found and installed the right drivers (a bit of a challenge on Nvidia). The main downside is the slot on the Gigabytes motherboard next to the card is unusable...zero clearance to the card.

it's an ok card if that's all you can afford, but getting a 1060 would be a better deal for its price

cheap

memory cache is small so it holds the card back

Got it as an upgrade for my dell xps 420. I saw this one recommended a few times, and took the plunge. Thankfully it fits and works fine. Installing the drivers was a little tricky, the setup didn't come up right for some reason, but after I restarted, it said it had installed.

Great for a budget gaming build easy to install and update drivers. Ideal graphics card for my 2nd gaming rig with an inverted ATX case

Plays Doom over game stream on ultra settings 1080p, gnarly powerful. Plays most games Med-High settings on Oculus Rift.

A stong card for Nvidia Gamestream, it replaced a 660ti and got a much smoother experience and a noticeable fps increase across the board Also it is much better then the 660ti when using the Oculus Rift; Major improvement, most games playable on med-high settings

Purchased this for playing esport titles on an older i5 750 system. Card has no issues keeping Overwatch over 75fps (75Hz refresh rate 1080p monitor) at 1080p on Ultra settings. Even when mining coins (when not gaming) and at 100% use, fan never spins over 50% and isn't overly intrusive for noise.

this card is a little beast :)

That leaves the $139 MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti in a sweet spot, more affordable than premium GTX 1050 Ti cards like the Gigabyte we tested, and decisively faster than the GTX 1050 at the key 1080p gaming level.
