With crippled memory architecture (96-bit bus not 128-bit) and less graphics RAM (3GB not 4GB), this card is underwhelming. In fact speaking with PC World, nVidia confirmed that the 3G GeForce GTX 1050 will only be about 10 percent faster than the budget 2GB version.

Also keep in mind that a refresh of nVidia's GeForce line will happen sooner or later. Who knows, perhaps we'll all have Titan V cards rocking in our gaming systems for too long.
