Architecture
Architecture	Stock-clock GPU figures from MSI's GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4G datasheet, whose card is pictured. First sale on 25 October 2016 is confirmed by GamersNexus launch coverage; the original NVIDIA launch page could not be read.	NVIDIA GPU specification baseline; the photo shows PNY's original stock-clock GDDR5 Single Fan board. The first-sale date is for the original GDDR5 model; a maker first-sale date for GDDR6 was not established.

Memory detail
Memory detail	MSI specifies 7,008 MHz effective GDDR5; no unambiguous maker bandwidth figure was established	PNY publishes 8 Gbps and 128 GB/sec for GDDR5; its GDDR6 PDF gives 12 Gbps but labels its bandwidth figure as Gbps, so numeric GDDR6 bandwidth is omitted.
Connections and power
Board power
Board power	75 W	75 W
Interface
Interface	PCIe 3.0	PCIe 3.0
Display outputs
Display outputs	Pictured MSI 4G has DisplayPort 1.4a, HDMI 2.0b and dual-link DVI-D; up to three displays	PNY's pictured GDDR5 Single Fan specification lists DisplayPort 1.4 and DVI-D. Its GDDR6 Dual Fan PDF conflicts internally, listing HDMI 2.0b in the features and HDMI 2.1 in the table; check the selected board.
Maximum resolution
Maximum resolution	7680 × 4320 on MSI's stock-card specification	7680 × 4320 on PNY's specifications
Power connector
Power connector	PNY's stock-clock model takes PCIe slot power; its separate OC model requires one 6-pin. Check the selected partner design.	NVIDIA's current comparison table lists one 6-pin for both revisions; PNY's pictured stock GDDR5 card explicitly needs no auxiliary connector, while its GDDR6 Dual Fan needs one 6-pin.
Recommended power supply
Recommended power supply	300 W on MSI's specification; requirements depend on the system	NVIDIA specifies 300 W; requirements depend on the system and partner card
Slot width
Slot width	Partner designs vary; PNY lists its stock-clock card as dual-slot	PNY's pictured GDDR5 Single Fan and GDDR6 Dual Fan are dual-slot designs
Size (reference card)
Size (reference card)	No retail Founders Edition; pictured MSI 4G is 177 × 118 × 34 mm and 330 g	No retail Founders Edition; pictured PNY GDDR5 Single Fan is 1.61 × 6.22 × 4.92 inches. PNY GDDR6 Dual Fan is 188.3 × 115.1 × 39.3 mm.
Video encode and decode
Video encode and decode	MSI specifies PCIe 3.0 x16 and HDCP 2.2	NVIDIA identifies the original encoder as Volta; GDDR6 cards can have Volta or Turing encoders depending on whether the GPU is TU117 or TU106/TU116. PNY specifies PCIe 3.0 x16 for both pictured/reference partner designs.
