Gaming PC build GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Palit StormX 4GB, Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB performance review

According to the top 1000 recommended requirements for PC games a PC with a Ryzen 5 2600 processor, a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Palit StormX 4GB graphics card and 16GB RAM is better performing than 340 games from that list. The main hardware in this PC puts the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Palit StormX 4GB as a bottleneck component. If this was upgraded then the system could increase the number of games it could run to 984 at recommended requirement.

The performance of these hardware components is best displayed in relation to the current most popular game, Red Dead Redemption 2. In summary, while some might be tempted to play Red Dead Redemption 2 in 1440p resolution with the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Palit StormX 4GB, we feel it is best placed at running at 1080p, where you could get the following frame rates - Low setting: 62 FPS, Medium setting: 49 FPS, High setting: 33 FPS, Ultra setting: 24 FPS.

2nd most popular game: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare - In summary, while looking at Low vs Ultra settings this GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Palit StormX 4GB should only play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on a small laptop screen and probably at less than High settings.

3rd most popular game: Death Stranding - To summarise, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Palit StormX 4GB fails to meet the very basic performance needs of the Death Stranding
