How much of an upgrade would this be from a 1050ti realistically not just on paper for something like Warzone running at 2560x1080 with 7th gen i5?

oh, this deal is back again!!!

Yep. Can't post my associate code, but that 3% helps more than people realize!

I bought one last time (3 weeks ago) for my sister, just a warning the cooler on this EVGA GPU is not that great at the stock config the fans (28 decibels) run at 75% speed at 73°C pulling 120-130watt according to GPU-z. EVGA only use 2 cooper pipe to disperse the heat instead of 3 like other vendors (45% fan speed and 63°C). But, after some tweaking, or I mean undervolt/OC it is pretty decent now for a summer gaming setup. By using MSI afterburner I was able to reduce the core to 956mv @ 2017Mhz w/curve editor, +1000mhz to memory, maxing out power limit 111, and temp limit to 90°C. Edited the fan curve to 60% max (20 decibels) @ 61°C. and it is very quiet now and only pulling ~95 watts. A nice 7% performance gain in performance. So, good luck, and hope you get a golden bin chip and push it to 950-1000mv @ 2100+Mhz others have posted.

I would say about ~2-3 times the performance. Once you OC the 3050 it is practically a GTX 1080 with DLSS which will help with your higher resolution.

Hope this helps.

this video with 3050 vs 1050ti w/ I3-10100 (4c/8t) CPU
Your CPU will be the bottleneck and expect 20-30% lower FPS.
