Detailed breakdown of GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (Mobile) specifications and capabilities.
Graphics Performance
The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti (Mobile) scores 5,918 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Budget tier as a Aging generation graphics card. It is built on the Turing (2018−2022) architecture (codename: TU116), manufactured on a 12 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 1024 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 64 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 32 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 3.041 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1485 MHz from a base of 1350 MHz.
