I inherited a 5th generation i5 Dell computer with a low wattage power supply and wanted to beef up it's weak internal video without spending much on a rapidly ageing platform. I decided to get a 1050 Ti and this was a great deal - much cheaper than anything available at retail. Benchmarking tells me what I expected from the research I did: games were going to run on low or medium settings, but they were going to run close to 30fps and that has been exactly the case. Obviously some games will differ and YMMV, but for the most part, it's going to run current games at minimum settings and a good fps and that's all you can ask for the price. TDP is low, it's whisper quiet and fit well it a semi-standard Dell case. It was literally "as advertised" if you did your research.

I bought this as an intermediate video card for a 4k monitor until the shakedown between the GTX 1080 Ti and AMD's forthcoming (some year!) Vega series cards is settled. The 1050 Ti performance in 4k is dismal, about par with a GTX 960. Not what I expected AT ALL. Even driving at 1080p, performance is still less than the GTX 960 on the Unigine benchmarks (Heaven and Valley both) with framerates between 9 and 12 at 4k and 18-20 at 1080p. So for that kind of lack of performance, even $140 is too much. It has more CUDA engines than the GTX 960 or it would only get 1 star.

Works well for GW2. Mostly high settings with 40-50 fps (lower in wvw and large events). Note that certain models of the 1050Ti have a passive cooling feature where the fan won't spin until the temp raises above a certain level. Gigabyte and MSI cards are the two I know of with this feature.

Needed a GPU that supports all features of DirectX 12. Bought it used, plugged it in, Windows found drivers, and within minutes, I was up and playing "Death Stranding." No hassles whatsoever.

One of the best video cards available at 75 watts. Doesnt need the extra cable from the power supply and will work with any motherboard that supports PCIe x16. GPU arrived on time in great packaging. My daughter can now play all her games at 60+ PFS at 1080. Thanks Amazon!
