Unconsciously, 2016 will soon become history. This year can be said to be the detonation year of VR. Various VR helmets and VR all-in-one machines have come into the market. I have also gone hand in hand with the HTC VIVE package. VR machine, playing for a few months the biggest feeling is that VR games and film sources too little. HTC VIVE is absolutely leveraged in terms of game experience, but it is still not good enough to watch movies like the VR one. First, the helmet must be close to the eyes, so wearing it for a long time will be uncomfortable, and secondly, it will look dizzy. I personally prefer to use 3D displays for watching videos. But people are always new and old, and with VR I put the 3D display into the cold. At the end of the year, cleaning was done to clean up the home and found two idle 3D displays, one was ACER GD245HQ, and the other was OEM version of AOC e2352Pz. It's not worth the money to sell it. I plan to let them go back to work. AOC e2352Pz belongs to polarized 3D, can use NVIDIA video card, can also use AMD video card, so I use the idle XFX RX470 to use, ACER GD245HQ this is the display of NVIDIA 3D Vision set, belongs to the time division method 3D display, that is The shutter-type 3D, which is often said, can only be used with NVIDIA graphics cards. The high-end N-card has been given to big, two, three milk machines, so you must start with an NVIDIA video card. This time the request is not high, can play some NVIDIA 3D Vision game under 1080P and watch 3D video on it. Not long ago, I upgraded the graphics card for the HTPC in the living room and replaced the GTX 650Ti Boost with the GTX 1050Ti. The feeling of the shotgun can be quite good, and the power consumption is even lower. So this time, consider the GTX 1050Ti. NVIDIA's GTX 1050Ti is a bit out of date. It was originally the cadence of the previous mid-range graphics card GX 960. Who knows that the GTX 960 has just officially taken over, the old rival AMD has come up with a RX 470D. The performance of the RX 470D is about 25% better than that of the GTX 1050Ti, and its price is only less than 15%. Moreover, some RX 470Ds also come with the benefit of open-core RX 470, so the GTX 1050Ti is embarrassing. Almost all of the GTX 1050Ti review articles I've seen have been answered by netizens about the RX 470D. This time I started GTX 1050Ti, I chose the 1199 yuan Sotec GeForce GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC, when buying Shang Jingdong search a bit, in the various GTX 1050Ti this card sales is the largest, 1199 yuan price is moderate, So start one. However, when I finished this article, Jingdong had already dried the card to 1099 yuan (membership price). Therefore, it is the computer hardware that is the worst value in the world.


There is only one original 3D glasses in the NVIDIA 3D Vision Kit, which means that I can only watch 3D movies one by one, and the built-in battery of the glasses is aging, and the battery life is extremely short. This is obviously not okay. When I started, NVIDIA 3D Vision's generation of glasses took more than a thousand pieces. Now it's been five or six years ago, but also the second-generation glasses. The generation should lower the price, so I'm going to start with two pairs of glasses, and Wife watching movies together. Taobao found a circle, a pair of NVIDIA 3D Vision generation of glasses, the normal price without transmitter is 120 yuan, only the original one-tenth, is acceptable range. Search carefully again, there is a surprise, a shop dealing with Lenovo spare parts, just like Lenovo machine shutter 3D glasses, carefully look at the map, BINGO, is NVIDIA 3D Vision generation. The price is cool, a pair of only 15 yuan, ordinary plastic frame + plastic lens polarized 3D glasses to this price, but the freight to 10 yuan, actually also supports 7 days no reason to return, decisive orders, start with two glasses, Plus freight costs 40 yuan. Even if it cannot be returned, the 40 yuan will not hurt.

(Long idle ACER GD245HQ monitor, a lot of gray)

Express delivery speed is still fast, from Beijing to Shantou three days of arrival. The outer box of the 3D glasses is very old, the original label of Lenovo was torn, and some key information was blackened by the merchant with a black oil pen. Let's take a look at the video card and 3D glasses out of the box.

★ Unpacking ★
1. Sotec GeForce GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC graphics card

GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC follows the yellow and black color packaging box of Sotec graphics card, but I found that "VR Ready" is less than the high-end graphics card. It is estimated that this level of graphics card will have some difficulty in running VR, so NVIDIA official put this ad Words are deleted. The back of the box describes the characteristics of the graphics card: platinum performance materials, selected GPU, low noise fan, low temperature PCB, high speed memory. These are all advertisements and have no practical significance. In particular, the "select GPU" one, currently NVIDIA in the BIOS overclocking the graphics card for the dead limit, and then select the GPU, but also this frequency, and no selection is different?

The GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC's color value is very good, black and white color, radiator appearance style and high-end PGF player power is somewhat similar. The length of the graphics card is 25cm, which is a standard length. The thickness occupies two PCI slots. It is also appropriate to place the inside of the ITX chassis. The radiator adopts a plastic air hood and double 9cm fans. It supports Freeze intelligent start-stop technology. When the load is low, the fan will stop automatically. The PCB of the GTX 1050Ti is not complicated and the heat sink is not very sized, so the overall weight of the card is very light, so there is no need for a backplane. The video output interface is equipped with two DVI-D, one HDMI and one DP interface as the public version. There is a ZOTAC word LED LOGO at the top of the heat sink. When the video card is running, it will emit white light. The external power supply interface is a single 6Pin interface.

GTX 1050Ti uses Pascal architecture GP107-400 core, has 768 CUDA stream processors, 48 ​​texture units, 32 ROPs, with a bit width of 128 bit GDDR5 memory. The GPU core base frequency of the public version of the GTX 1050Ti is 1291 MHz, and the Boost frequency is 1392 MHz. The Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC has a GPU core base frequency of 1354MHz, a Boost frequency of 1468MHz, and a memory frequency of 7000MHz as in the public version. Judging from the several ultra-public version of GTX 1050Ti that I have played, NVIDIA's current limit on the GTX 1050Ti graphics card is very dead, and the frequency of several high-frequency GTX 1050Ti is exactly the same. The TDP power consumption of GTX 1050Ti is only 75W, and the power consumption of high-frequency version is not much higher, so it is very suitable for HTPC and ITX host.


2, ultra-cheap Lenovo spare parts 3D glasses Let's take a look at my cheap glasses, la la la. It can be said that the best value hardware that I started this year is it.

Although the packaging of these two Lenovo spare parts NVIDIA 3D Vision is very old, but the things inside are indeed new, manuals, two nose pads, a USB cable, 3D glasses, storage bags are all new products . My only concern is that the spare parts will be put on for too long, and the batteries inside will not deteriorate.

After three hours of electricity, two pairs of 3D glasses were full of blood. Originally wanted to open the glasses to see the inside of the structure, but found that the plastic shell is fitted, and the estimated installation does not go back. The transmitter was originally used by me, but it can be automatically matched with the new two pairs of 3D glasses.


★ graphics card dismantlement ★
The Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC has six screws on the back, four of which are used to secure the heat sink and two screws to secure the heat sink on the MOSFET. After removing the heat sink, you can see the original appearance of the PCB.

The PCB of GTX 1050Ti is not complicated, and the components are not much, so the space on the PCB is not crowded. The GPU core is surrounded by four Samsung GDDR5 memory particles, numbered K4G80325FB-HC28, 0.28ns, memory capacity 1GB, a total of four A total of 4GB total memory capacity is composed of 128 bits. The theoretical running speed of this memory granule is 7000MHz, and overclocking to 8000MHz is a piece of cake. The power supply part uses a 4+1-phase digital power supply. The MOSFET is covered with aluminum heat sinks to increase the heat dissipation area.


As already mentioned, the TDP power of the GTX 1050Ti graphics card is only 75W, and the heat output is very small. However, the X-Gaming GTX 1050Ti still uses a relatively high-size heat sink, a pure copper heat-absorbing base, plus two pure 6mm calibers. Copper heat pipes, as well as dense heat sink fins. To deal with GTX 1050Ti this level of graphics is certainly more than enough. The heat absorption base is also attached with a heat dissipation paste attached to the memory particles, which can assist the heat dissipation of the memory particles. Both fans have a caliber of 9cm and support PWM speed control.

★ Theoretical performance and 3D game test ★
1, the default frequency performance test:

The default GPU core base frequency of Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC is 1354MHz, Boost frequency is 1468MHz, and the highest Boost frequency in actual operation is 1797MHz, which is about 80MHz higher than the public version, and the memory frequency is 7000MHz. The GPU core temperature is only 29°C in standby mode, the fan is stopped, the full-load GPU core temperature does not exceed 52°C, and the maximum fan speed is only around 1000PRM, which is basically noise-free.


2, the actual game performance and power consumption test

In the actual game performance test, the performance of Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC is about 8-10% better than that of the public version of GTX 1050Ti, about 15-18% better than that of the public version of GTX 960 4G, and the highest image quality at 1080P resolution. Or the smooth running of current mainstream games with high picture quality is not a problem. Individually demanding games can also be reduced with a lower picture quality. Performance will decrease by approximately 40% after NVIDIA 3D Vision is turned on, so games with higher requirements such as "Singularity: Ashes" will need to be reduced in quality and special effects to run smoothly. NVIDIA 3D Vision has always been very supportive of the Tomb Raider series, and the 3D stereoscopic effect is very good after the 3D mode was turned on. In NVIDIA Control Panel, you can see NVIDIA 3D Vision support and visual effects for each game.

The Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC's fan is stopped in the normal state until the GPU core temperature reaches 48°C. The standby power consumption is only 60.7W, and it is only about 130W at full load. I'm free to scratch my hands. I added the AOC e2352Pz polarized display to the GTX 1050Ti graphics card. It feels good to connect one host to two 3D monitors. I tested the effects of playing polarized 3D games. Although the stereo effect is not as good as NVIDIA 3D Vision, the game compatibility is also very good.

3, 3D video playback test To use NVIDIA 3D Vision suite to watch 3D stereo video, I personally feel that the easiest way is to use CyberLink PowerDVD 16. This software is more intelligent, can automatically detect the type of 3D display connected to the system, eliminating the distress of the set, more practical for rookie users. PowerDVD also has the advantage of being able to convert 2D video into 3D in real time. Although the 3D stereoscopic effect is not as good as the native 3D stereoscopic movie, it can also feel a certain stereoscopic effect different from the 2D display.

Another one is to use the PotPlayer player that comes with the perfect decoding, check the "Real View Stereo (Windows 8 native 3D)" option in the 3D video output mode, you can open the 3D stereo effect of NVIDIA 3D Vision.


Open polarized 3D mode In addition to using the TriDef 3D software included with the AOC e2352Pz monitor, Power DVD is used, but with this monitor, Power DVD cannot automatically detect the 3D type. We can manually set the 3D mode to “Micro-polarizer LCD. 3D" on it.

★ chief life home perspective ★
First, the advantages and disadvantages of Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC 1. Advantages: Workmanship materials better than the public version, the default frequency is higher than the public version, performance is about 8-10% higher than the public version of GTX 1050Ti, but also has a good overclocking Potential; excellent heat sink performance, low noise; both 3D and other polarized 3D displays with NVIDIA 3D Vision support.
2. Disadvantages: Compared with AMD RX470D, the price/performance ratio is slightly lower.
In general, the materials and cooling effects of Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC are all excellent in the GTX 1050Ti, but this is a thousand-level graphics card, and it is impossible to do so with high-end graphics cards. Then stuffed. Looking at the vast majority of the ultra-public version of the GTX 1050Ti, the power supply is basically 3 +1 phase or 4 +1 phase, the frequency is 1354/1468/7000MHz, and NVIDIA has done a certain amount of overclocking in the video card BIOS The limitation is that the maximum Boost frequency of the GPU core cannot exceed 1911 MHz, and the memory frequency cannot exceed 8000 MHz. Therefore, the biggest difference between the ultra-public version of the GTX 1050Ti is the radiator and warranty. My personal advice is to buy a cheaper one. The other issue is the tradeoff between AMD RX 470D and Sotec GTX 1050Ti X-GAMING OC, which is priced at 1059-1099 yuan. The price of AMD RX 470D is generally 1199-1299 yuan, while the high-frequency version of 1050Ti is similar to Sotec GTX 1050Ti. The performance can reach about 82% of the high frequency RX 470D, the price is about 90% of the RX 470D, so the cost performance is definitely lower than the RX 470D. The biggest advantage of the GTX 1050Ti is that the full load power is about 50W lower than that of the RX 470D, which is more suitable for ITX host and HTPC.

Second, the advantages and disadvantages of the shutter 3D display and polarized 3D display Overall, the shutter 3D display is better than the polarized 3D display, in-depth analysis, the shutter 3D display is refreshed by using 120Hz and above Rate monitor, with dedicated 3D glasses, allows each eye to see different screens for fast switching at a refresh rate of 60Hz, and produces illusions in the brain to view stereoscopic images. The advantage is that it will not lose any image resolution and excellent 3D effects. Large viewing angle, the disadvantage is that there will be a slight flicker when the external light source is strong. Polarized 3D uses the principle of “vibration direction” to decompose the original image. First, it divides the image into two groups of vertically polarized and horizontally polarized images, and then uses polarized lenses with different polarization directions on the left and right sides of the 3D glasses. In this way, the left and right eyes of the person will receive two different sets of images, which will then be synthesized by the brain to produce a three-dimensional image. All we see in cinemas is polarized 3D, including IMAX, but the cinema uses two projectors side-by-side for playback, so there is no loss of brightness and resolution, but the polarizing display in the home uses interlaced polarization. Line resolution will be reduced by half, brightness and image quality will be affected, and the viewing angle is smaller. So, I personally prefer a shutter type 3D display. Compared to VR, watching 3D movies, I think the 3D display is more reliable, the overall cost is lower, the image quality is better, and the degree of eye fatigue is also lighter.
For players who like 3D effects, the GTX 1050Ti also has the advantage over the RX 470D that it supports both shuttered and polarized 3D displays, while the RX 470D can only support polarized 3D displays. So if you want to use 3D display, GTX 1050Ti will be better.
