ATI Radeon HD 4870

ATI ’s xx70 cards have always been defined by mid-range prices with performance that knocks on the door of high-end graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the TeraScale graphics card inside the ATI Radeon HD 4870, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend. The ATI Radeon HD 4870 is much more expensive than the ATI Radeon HD 4770 as it costs a whopping $ 299. Compare this to the ATI Radeon HD 4770, which came originally at a price of $ 109. Meanwhile, the NVIDIA closest equivalent card is the GTX 260 which costs $ 449.

Compared to its NVIDIA 's closest rival, GTX 260, the ATI Radeon HD 4870 was -2 % slower.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

The GTX 1060 6GB might be the entry-level flagship of the latest Pascal set of graphics cards, but their prices keep them out of the reach of most budget PC gamers. On the other hand, the GTX 1050 Ti is closer to being reasonably affordable at a price tag of $ 169. NVIDIA ’s xx50 cards have always been defined by budget prices with performance that knocks on the door of entry-level graphics cards – especially when overclocked. After taking the time to fully test the Pascal graphics card inside the GTX 1050 Ti, we can say without a doubt that it continues the trend.

Spec for spec, this GTX 1050 Ti leapfrogs its direct predecessor, the GTX 950, by boasting 31 % more fps. The GTX 1050 Ti has 4 GB RAM compared to the GTX 950 's 2 GB video memory.

In our synthetic benchmarks, the GTX 1050 Ti blows past the GTX 950 and, amazingly, even the GTX 960 as well. Fortunately, gaming performance was quite impressive. The GTX 1050 Ti consistently delivers great frame rate increases over the GTX 950 and it really justifies an upgrade.

Compared to its AMD 's closest rival, R9 380, the GTX 1050 Ti was -0.3 % slower. For 1080p Full HD, we were able to play Valorant at 80 fps to 80 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 80 fps.

For 1440p Quad HD, we were able to play Valorant at 66 fps to 66 fps and kept frame rates hovering around 66 fps.
