Low Profile GTX 1050 Card

The MSI GeForce GTX 1050 2GT LP is a low profile graphics card built for small form factor systems. It fits slim cases where full height cards cannot be installed. The dual fan thermal design covers more heatsink area to move heat away efficiently. Military Class 4 components provide reliable in-game performance.

2GB GDDR5 Frame Buffer

The card carries 2GB of GDDR5 memory across a 128-bit interface. This capacity handles 1080p gaming at modest settings and general multi-monitor productivity. Texture heavy titles at higher resolutions will exceed the available frame buffer. DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.5 support covers modern API requirements.

Dual Fan Thermal Design

Dual fans draw heat from the heatsink while keeping noise low in typical desktop use. The Pascal architecture delivers power efficient performance at stock clocks. A single PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot supplies all necessary power without extra connectors. Boost clock reaches 1455 MHz under load.

Questions about this item

Will the PCI Express 3.0 x16 interface run at full speed on my older motherboard that only has PCIe 2.0 slots?

The card is backward compatible with PCIe 2.0 slots; it will operate at the slot's maximum bandwidth with no configuration needed.

How can I verify the boost clock is reaching 1455 MHz once the card is installed?

Run a GPU monitoring tool such as MSI Afterburner during a 3D load; the sensor readout will show the core frequency rising to 1455 MHz.

Does the package include a low-profile bracket for my slim chassis, or must I order one separately?

A low-profile bracket is included in the box; no separate bracket purchase is required for slim form-factor builds.
