## Description

Buy

Review: Does a fine job - This card replaces the GT720 2GB DDR3 that the 5+ year-old Acer computer came with, so I can watch HDR content on the large screen 4K smart TV. Good performance, ultra quiet, occasionally buggy startup (erratic visual glitches) causing constant rebooting - turned out the latest driver was the culprit - problem resolved after reverting to the older Aug 2024 driver.
Review: Great value! - For the money, it's hard to beat; granted, you're not going to get much from it if you're planning to game on it, but if you only need to run 2/3/4 monitors for work-related content, then this card is perfect. I'm running 2 screens, for audio editing, and the screens (top-end Dell) are crisp and will replay HD content very well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ [Phoenix 1050-Ti] Decent card, way too expensive atm. Change the default colour range!!
*by V***M on 25 March 2019*

Easy install if you remove the old software and your current driver from device manager beforehand. The default NVIDIA setting for colours are a bit washed out so I went into the Change Resolution section and changed the 'Output dynamic range' to Full and the Brightness and Contrast to 45%, also set it to Full in the advanced section of the 'Video colour settings'. Looks great now with nice dark blacks and a better colour range. Works very well in less demanding titles like the indie games or ones that are a few years old, runs very quiet even during gaming. You can get an RX 570 or GTX 1060 3GB for about the same price atm, but I would need a new PSU and could not even find an adapter for my proprietary mobo power sockets, so opted for the GTX 1050 Ti. Tried an ASRock RX560 at first but it stuttered on all games and video and I found the AMD software a bit 'glitchy' to use i.e. not responding when first opened to Gaming section and found the update always told me I needed to update to the same version of Crimson. Also when I did update it corrupted the software and I had to install it from the new download file. Considering the GTX 1660 6GB is about twice as powerful and can be bought for around £200 then £150 for the 1050 Ti seems a bit much. But if you have limited power (in my case just 200W) then the 1050 Ti is a good option, but now the GTX 1650 is a better 75W PCIe only card and costs about the same price atm. Update 16.05.2020 Having done more research it seems I could have gone for the RX570 (120W) or the 1060 (120W) I mentioned. A 200W PSU will be ok with these cards in my OEM system. A system like mine would draw about 185W from the wall with a GTX 1060, so at the PSU after its 20% loss in efficiency it would be about 150W. Just to be sure the GTX 1650 Super (100W) would be a great buy atm. Of course you would need a 6 pin connector from the PSU, my PC has a socket on the MOBO for this purpose.
