Asus Phoenix GeForce GTX 1050Ti 4GB GDDR5 Review

When Asus Phoenix GeForce GTX 1050Ti was newly installed in the beginning of December it worked great. But as time went by it began acting up, everything I'd do on photoshop was getting slower and slower. It would take sometimes two minutes or so to open images on a simple printing program. Finally today (March 3, 2020) it crashed and there was no recovery. I should have returned it when I suspected something was going awry but I thought maybe there was something wrong with the computer. Now I'm out of luck. Installed my old card and everything works as it should. --- UPDATE: After a few months of waiting I had heard there was an update to this graphics card so I decided to reinstall it and give it a try. After installing the new update the card has worked flawlessly ever since. It would crash every 20 hours or so before but now it has not crashed once. Hopefully the update removed the problems my card was experiencing and I can trust it while doing photoshop projects. Originally a one star rating, I would have gone lower if I could have, I bumped the star rating up to four stars. Four stars only because I want to wait several more months to see if the problems have been permanently fixed. --- UPDATE: Bumped my rating to five star. Since the update the card has never crashed, and is working perfectly and faster than ever. I bought this to replace an ATI era hd 4850 video card. Yes the video card from the year 2008 if I remember correctly. Anyway I knew even buying a budget card would be a massive improvement. After all the ATI 4850 only came out with 512MB of ram! Yes thats right MB not GB. Moving forward after looking online for a new video card I was sticker shocked. I guess something called bitcoin mining has made the demand for video cards crazy high right now. the Date is 4/5/2018 at the time I'm writing this. However I needed a video card and I didn't want to sell my soul for one. So after realizing the 1060 was just too much I settled for the 1050 ti over the 1050. The reason.... I wanted 4gb of ram.... not the 2gb that comes with non Ti version. I have been burned by not buying enough ram but never by buying too much. So I did a search and it seemed that the 1050 ti series seems to be higher in price over their MSRP due to this mining stuff going on. However this card seemed to be the best bang for the buck and I have heard of ASUS before since I have owned many of their motherboards and knew they made quality products. I installed the card with little issue and loved the fact I didn't have to use an external power cord for the video card like the ATI Radeon 4850 used. Amazing isn't it that a card with almost 4 times the ram and many many times the computing power over my old card didn't even need the amount of power my old 2008 4850 card needed. Good job Nvidia! Anyway now I can play (WOT) World of Tanks at over 100fps using almost the highest settings. The new maps in Patch 1.0 look amazing with this card. I plan on loading more games once I find my Steam password again. However I am pleased even though this is not a barn burner video card it plays many games perfectly fine even though you might not be able to play them at maximum video settings. Extremely pleased with this card. It went into a roughly 6 year old Asus desktop, running 32GB of DDR3, with an FX8300 processor all powerted by a 300 watt psu. I've slowly modded the old rig up over the years, adding more ram, nice fans and a slightly better GPU before this - but it had recently become quite obvious that its gaming prowess was lacking. Asus Phoenix GeForce GTX 1050Ti replaced a passively cooled ASUS GT1030 2 gig card. One of my biggest reasons in choosing both the old 1030 and current 1050 have been to avoid upgrading the power supply from the original 300 watt unit. At 6 years old and running an old processor and old slow ram there was only so much. I wanted to invest in the old rig. Asus Phoenix GeForce GTX 1050Ti only game I play on PC is iRacing. The old 2 gig card was lucky to hit 80FPS with the graphics severely turned down. The new card will easily run double that on the same graphics settings and has no issues running 100+ FPS on much better graphics than I'm used to. I play on a 27" MSI monitor, running 1080P and 120hz. Long story short, I'm not sure I could have got a better card for my needs and it has greatly enhanced my gaming experience. I've always had great luck with Asus and will likely continue using their products for the foreseeable future.
