At a time when there are very few new video cards, and the few that exist besides having inflated prices quickly disappear from the market due to high demand, scalpers and miners, producers they are striving for cover the question “with what they have”.
Over the past few weeks it was rumored of a Nvidia intent on restarting the production of TU106 GPUs for GeForce RTX 2060 and 2060 SUPER cards, probably to cover the demand for OEMs and system integrators, and in these hours it seems that the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti could also help the cause. According to the Youtube channel Tech Yes City, Nvidia would be supplying partners with the old GP107 GPU equipped with 768 CUDA cores released in 2016.
It is a card that offers GTX 960-like performance, and that today struggles to handle triple A games in Full HD, but is still suitable for playing at the same resolution with Fortnite, Valorant and eSports games in general, with some exceptions, obviously reducing the quality of detail to “low”. The small amount of memory (4 GB GDDR5), moreover, would also make them unappealing to miners and therefore a safe haven for making pre-assembled PCs or direct sales to customers.
The indiscretion must be clearly taken with the benefit of the doubt, and in any case what is reported may not directly affect our country. The current situation – will continue for months like already written in recent weeks – gives space to unprecedented scenarios and speculations of all kinds, so much so that at the moment it is not possible to exclude anything.
