NVIDIA has gone and quietly introduced another Pascal-based graphics card to its entry-level lineup, the previously rumored GeForce GTX 1050 with 3GB of GDDR5 memory. As the third GeForce GTX 1050 card in NVIDIA's product stack, the new SKU is sandwiched between the other GeForce GTX 1050 with 2GB of GDDR5 memory, and the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with 4GB of GDDR5 memory. It's not entirely clear how NVIDIA will market and sell this new card—there was speculation that it could end up as an exclusive option in China, where it would most likely be found in gaming cafes, or as a variant specifically for OEM system builders. Of course, NVIDIA might also target the gaming community at large, which...

Most of the rumors surrounding NVIDIA's future graphics card plans are related to whatever it has in store as a successor to Pascal, whether that means porting Volta over to the gaming sector or rolling with Turing or Ampere. However, NVIDIA might not be finished with Pascal. The latest GPU rumor about team green is that NVIDIA is prepping a 3GB version of its entry-level GeForce GTX 1050 card for cost conscious gamers. If that comes to fruition, budget gamers would have three GeForce GTX 1050 models to choose from, including 2GB and 3GB variants of the GeForce GTX 1050, and the Ti model with 4GB of GDDR5 memory. Before we get to the rumor, let's have a look at the specs of the existing GeForce...

ASUS is looking to appease mobile professionals who might partake in some light gaming on the side with its latest thin and light notebook, the VivoBook Pro N580. While it’s not being aimed at hardcore gamers that crave the ultimate in graphics muscle, the VivoBook Pro N580 has more than enough power to ensure that eSports fanatics will be more than satisfied when they are on the go. Powering the notebook is a potent Intel Core i7-7700HQ Kaby Lake processor, which is backed by 16GB of DDR4 2400 memory (taking up two DIMM slots). Your window into the gaming world (or productivity tasks) is through a 15.6-inch Full HD touch screen with a 72.57 percent screen-to-body ratio. An NVIDIA GeForce GTX...

Gaming notebooks are near and dear to our hearts, so our ears definitely perked up with the announcement of two new products coming out from MSI: the GP62X and GP72X Leopard Pro Series. Both machines are powered by Intel’s latest seventh-generation Kaby Lake processors and have plenty of features targeted at on-the-go gamers. The GP62X has a 15.6-inch 1080p display, while the GP72X has a 17.3-inch 1080p display. The larger display features a 5ms response time and a 120Hz refresh rate. Both notebooks feature a Kaby Lake Core i7 processor paired with a single 16GB stick of memory (systems are upgradeable to 32GB), M.2 NVMe PCIe and 2.5-inch SATA storage options, Killer GbE, 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth...

We here at HotHardware love a good gaming PC, and the folks over at Origin PC are doing their best to deliver a gaming notebook that packs quite a bit of punch with a respectable price tag. Meet the EON15-S — a 15.6-inch class notebook that hits all the right notes with a starting price of just $999. The EON15-S’s 15.6-inch IPS panel features a FHD (1920x1080) resolution and is backed by NVIDIA’s entry-level, Pascal-based GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics card with 4GB of memory. While the GTX 1050 isn’t capable of pushing 4K graphics at ultra settings like the monster GTX 1080 or GTX 1080 Ti, it should be up to the task of handling eSports titles at the native 1080p resolution. The EON15-S is...

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 Ti The moment has finally arrived. After nearly two months of speculation, NVIDIA has finally pulled the wraps off its new entry-level GeForce GTX 1050 and GTX 1050 Ti graphics cards. NVIDIA is confident that these budget cards won't drain your wallet and will allow you to enjoy your favorite games at 1080p/60fps. Although NVIDIA isn’t ready to divulge all of the specifications for the new cards just yet, it did let us know that both GP107 GPUs feature a 135mm2 die size, 3.3 billion transistors and a 128-bit memory interface. The GTX 1050, as we’ve previously reported, comes with 640 CUDA cores and 2GB of 7Gbps GDDR5 memory. The GTX 1050 Ti ups CUDA cores to 768 and...

Over the past month, we’ve gotten a clearer look at what to expect from NVIDIA’s new entry-level GeForce GTX 1050 series of graphics cards. In our most recent report, we learned that NVIDIA is planning both 2GB GTX 1050 and a 4GB GTX 1050 Ti variants. Today, we’re receiving confirmation of both the GTX 1050 Ti branding and the fact that the card will use the Pascal GP107 GPU. Images of a Chinese-based card also confirm 4GB of GDDR5 memory onboard the card and show that the GP107 is quite a bit smaller than the GP106 found inside the GTX 1060. If you’ll also notice that the PCB features a 6-pin power connector, despite the fact that we’ve been hearing from multiple sources that the GTX 1050 series...

We’ve already heard rumblings about NVIDIA’s upcoming budget GeForce GTX 1050 GPU series, and today we’re learning even more info about the cards that are aimed at the ultimate penny pinching gamers. We’ve learned that there will reportedly be two versions available, both of which are based on the GP107 graphics core: the standard GeForce GTX 1050 with 2GB of RAM and the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with 4GB of RAM onboard. The GeForce GTX 1050 is said to come with 640 CUDA cores, which by far makes its the weakest member of the Pascal family. The base clock is dialed in at 1354 MHz, while the boost clock goes up to 1455 MHz. When all the numbers are tallied, the GeForce GTX 1050 will have FP32 compute...

After launch its high-end GeForce GTX 1080 enthusiast-class GPU earlier this summer, NVIDIA has been quick to flesh out its Pascal family from top to bottom. Slotting in above the GTX 1080, we’ve seen the release of a new Titan X. Coming in below, NVIDIA launched the GTX 1070 and the GTX 1060 (in both 3GB and 6GB versions). Now NVIDIA is ready to take the Pascal family deeper into entry-level territory with the GeForce GTX 1050. Still based on a 16nm FinFET manufacturing process, the GTX 1050 has just 768 CUDA cores compared to 1152 for the GTX 1060 (3GB) and a staggering 3584 or the Titan X. Base and boost clocks have also been reduced to 1318 MHz and 1380 MHz respectively. Whereas the GTX 1060...
