Performance: GeForce GTX 1070 vs GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
The GeForce GTX 1070 is dramatically faster, around 175% ahead of the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to entry-level 1080p. The GeForce GTX 1070 packs 1,920 CUDA cores versus 768 on the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti.
Price & Value
The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti currently lists from $804 BRL, $1,918 BRL less than the GeForce GTX 1070 at $2,722 BRL. Despite being slower, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti offers the better performance-per-dollar (~23% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti still sits about $665 BRL above its $139 BRL MSRP. The GeForce GTX 1070 still sits about $2,343 BRL above its $379 BRL MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is the gentler choice at 75W versus 150W. The GeForce GTX 1070 is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 150W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce GTX 1070 carries 8GB versus 4GB on the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti. The extra 4GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers. The GeForce GTX 1070's memory is also faster — 256 GB/s versus 112 GB/s (256-bit vs 128-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Which should you buy: GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or GeForce GTX 1070?
Choose the GeForce GTX 1070 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
