Borrowed a buddy's 1050Ti.. because I got these new uhd blurays i wanted to watch..
So.... basically, the 1050Ti is on the -edge- of being able to playback the latest HEVC using Madvr scaling.. It's tittering on not being able to scale the video at all..
So, for example, if ya'll got a monitor w/ the movie, and another screen that needed Gpu-acceleration, it's going to choke up.
The only way around it would be to use the more standard player outputs, and they're fine, but drastically reduced in quality vs Madvr output.
As it stands, madvr consumes 40-80% of the 1050Ti's processing power depending on the variety of hevc uhd files I've tested.
This is an upper end 1050ti, @ 2050mhz core, 4507mhz vram. That 80% quote is with the core fully loaded, not half multiplier.
I know the 1050ti is going to be quite popular this christmas, so, keep this information in mind..
1070 and especially 1080 is the best place to be for the coming 2 years.
