    Installed easy and the software was a breeze to install but seemed a bit scattered but it ran smooth and gives ample adjustments to dual monitors .. Both monitors are crisp & the colors are vibrant so this card works great for multiple setups with the display port , HDMI or the dvi outputs.. I do recommend this card!!

    It works. It's silent and it runs games like Fallout 4 and Witcher 3 fairly well. The price was good.

    My computer had only a built in GPU, so I wanted to upgrade to extend the life of my Computer. This card worked great, it does not need an additional power connector, just the power from PCIe Port. Also makes my low end gaming become mid graphics gaming.

    Bought the PNY nVidia Geforce GTX 1050 card as I needed a GPU that didn't require an external Power connection for a cheap computer build. Was able to do World of Warcraft at moderate settings and keep the Frame rate a lot better than the PNY nVidia Quadro K600 card I was trying to use.

    Acceptable performance, loud fan

    Acceptable performance for 1050 card. Smallish fan runs at higher RPM producing a whiny sound even at lowest speed. Cannot drop fan speed below 30% (hardware-limited). Hardware does not report actual RPM, just RPM% and temperature.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    My 11 year old GTX250 starting displaying artifacts on my Linux system. The replacement GTX 1050 has twice the memory and DDR 5 vs DDR 3 all in a package 1/2 the size and much more energy efficient too.

    This video card sped up my pc immensely for just a little over $100. Easy install with no hiccups. I did it a the same time as a new power supply. And of course a great price and easy in store pick up at Best Buy.

    I purchased this card because it got good reviews and the store associates also recommended it. Unfortunately it was not compatible with my older desktop so I had to return it to the store for a refund.

    This inexpensive GTX1050 series card saved my wife's desktop from the recycle bin. It consumes low power but renders very adequate graphics capabilities for a Non-Extremist gamer's everyday use.
