Passive graphics cards are an excellent solution for those wanting a silent, but capable system. Palit is the first manufacturer to equip an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with a passive cooler. We've tested the silent GTX 1050 Ti KalmX.

The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is a decent graphics card for gaming at a Full HD resolution, provided that you are content with medium to high settings. Furthermore the card has practically all the features that a media consumer would ask for, such as H.265-decoding (including 10-bit) and an HDMI 2.0 output. Therefore it's an ideal card to upgrade an older system for usage as a modern media center.
