Which GPU has a better value the G1 1050ti with 2 or 1 fans?

What performance difference is there in between the two cards in terms of overclocking?


Any help is appreciated links below:

Both cards should be even performance wise. The 2 fan version should maintain its turbo boost longer or may have a bigger turbo boost clock speed, so it should be a little faster. Don't expect a big difference though (3-4%). It will probably overclock a little better but that also depends on the chip quality of the card over which you don't have any control. The other advantage that the 2 fan version has, is its bigger cooler, which will allow it to stop its fans during idle or low load situation, thus it will be quieter than the 1 fan card which has a smaller cooler and a fan that works all the time.

There is almost no performance difference between those 2 card versions. The only difference may be in overclocking but then again you are relying in the quality of each individual chip. Also Nvidia has put limits into how much the power each GTX 1050 Ti can draw. The end result is that a GPU that has a 6 Pin power plug may not be able to completely use it because of the Nvidia power limits. That said a card that has it may hit higher clock speed through overclocking especially if its manufacturer has made some modifications to the card in order to be able to hit higher clocks from the factory . Also not having to draw all the power from the PCI slot puts less stress on the motherboard power delivery system.

It depends on the games you play but the big advantage that the Ti version has is the 4GB of VRAM which is now considered to be the standard amount for 1080p gaming. If you get the 1050 2GB card there is a great chance that you won't be able to play AAA games at 1080p 6 months from now or you'll able to play them at lower detail settings, unless you lower the resolution to 720p. So the 4GB of VRAM makes the card more future-proof.

Ok thx for the info, I plan on playing Call of Duty WW2, GTA 5, Hearts of Iron, and Arma 3. Would the GTX 1050 be capable of running these games? I am not looking to future proof my system as I plan on buying a much better gpu in a year, was originally planning on buying a 1070 but then the price increased a lot, so I might buy the 1070 in a year if the price goes down or something better if a new GPU comes out. Also if I do have to turn down my settings in 6 months to medium that is also fine.

Yes it should work just fine with those games with reduced detail settings but future games may require more VRAM in order to work at 1080p. Also minimum requirements haven't been published yet for COD WW2 so it may require more RAM than 2GB, but it will probably run at 720p.
