GTX 1050 Ti in COD Vanguard BETA at 1080p, 900p, 720p, 800x600 - Lowest settings

Intro

Hello guys Hassan here and welcome back to my first article on this blog, in this one my friends I’m going to be testing the Geforce GTX 1050 ti in Call of Duty Vanguard. this one is the Azus Trix version of the card. I’m running it using the latest Nvidia drivers of course 471.90 at the time of writing this article, and I’m not overclocking it. I am running it using the Ryzen 9 5900x and 32 gigabytes of ram, of course, these are overkill for a 1050ti but you should achieve the same fps if you pair it with something like a Ryzen 3300 for example, and 16 gigabytes of ram.

At 1080p 

So let's get into it, shall we?/ okay so this is not good I really hope this scene is super intensive and that when we get to the game we'll see more FPS because playing Call of Duty with sub 30 frames. it’s a rough experience, let me tell you any way we're playing using the lowest settings preset and I manually set everything that wasn't set to the lowest because some of the settings were actually still set to like medium or high. so yeah we can't disable anti-aliasing but MSAA it’s not really a very intensive AAA option and uh yeah this is it over on the display settings 1080p so it’s uh it's looking okay. You know for low settings it's not too bad it's still very soft probably because of the Anti-Aliasing and we're getting all right fps there's an invisible guy right there. So far it's actually okay, you know you can actually play this game at low settings with the 1050ti. oh boy that there's a massive slowdown what the hell so we hit somebody there and we hit them again maybe we should go this way.

Okay, there's oh gosh what the hell these lens flares are a little bit obnoxious game developers please fix that it's like Battlefield 3 here all over again flashbacks so it's not really a 60 FPS experience and I'd love to have seen that, of course, because in Call of Duty you really want to to have 60 FPS for that smooth and competitive experience. You can still play like this, in my opinion, this is running the game like the 3060ti did at 4k Ultra settings but still, this is the minimum requirements GPU for this game and yeah I can see why you know it's actually pretty accurate you can get 30 plus FPS all of the time using low settings at 1080p resolution with something like the 1050ti. You can see that in this area right here whenever there are explosions it's pretty intensive maybe it's just the fire effects there but yeah it drops very close to 30 frames per second and that's not really a very consistent experience whatsoever.

We're doing really bad in this one guy uh all right I'd definitely choose to play with a lower resolution here and a 1050ti because I really feel like the higher fps will give you a much better experience in a game like this. Any first-person shooter for that matter actually oh the fps dropped by quite a lot there. I’ve noticed that whenever you shoot people there it is the lens flare again dropping our FPS super weird it's usually not intensive at all you know in games but here it actually is look lens flare 43 no lens flare 55 what the hell. Wait for a second yeah again 43 50 something you know what Vanguard developers I really think you should allow us to just tone down the lens flares maybe disable them. 

I don't know that would actually give some people the advantage if they did allow you to disable it. But you know it’s dropping the fps by 10 frames that's quite a bit all right, we actually won this.

At 900p

Let's do 1600 by 900 now it's now applied everything's still on the lowest quality settings. By the way, let's see 900p actually puts us closer to 60 frames. Let's look at the lens flare that's like the most demanding thing this actually doesn't do much as you can see it, it's basically the same so in this map, it doesn't do anything but in the other one it was quite demanding and super weird. So, let's start counting our frames once again here at 900p, ooh so many okay all right guys please help just throw a stun grenade and cook a grenade right what did I kill somebody with a stun what the hell just happened. All right wait for a second oh boy they're still coming from there can I mount the gun? Yes, I can oh come on stun grenades everywhere how do I throw it back. All right this is much better guys I could actually enjoy my time here with these fps. Maybe in explosions and stuff, it will drop of course but it's pretty damn good now yep you should reload this whoop God damn it, I think they should definitely look into optimizing the explosions for a full release of the Vanguard. I need another weapon.

So you can see that the one percent lows are at 38 right now guys it's not very good right. The FPS drops it's definitely noticeable when that happens you know you might want to avoid explosives and stuff in this one if you're playing with a 1050ti what the hell things are blinking now oh way higher fps here oh come on I was enjoying the higher fps dude, ah this map feels a little bit claustrophobic with a lot of people I think it's 14 versus 14. Yeah it's called it's the Call of Duty experience you know it's good for benchmarking because there's a lot of chaos. All right oh you know what I should probably just see the fps with this, it drops into the 40s it's not bad you know monsoon lows are now at 35 it could be better again. But I think it's a much more enjoyable experience than 1080p that's for sure, you know what? Maybe I can't really kill a lot of people because of my own skills it's not because of the GPU. I’m starting to believe that you know, all right I just gotta play a little bit more carefully. I totally agree with 1050ti bottlenecks, just kidding it's playable and you can have fun.

At 720p resolution

Okay so we're gonna test it out now at the 720p resolution and after that, I’m actually going to try it at the 800x600 resolution, because well I’m going to aim for those 60 FPS and start counting our frames here at 720p. It seems like it's gonna be a really smooth experience that's nice to know boy. We've seen an explosion it's all good to see guys that 720p gives you more frames and you can play better like this. What the hell okay so beta bugs probably I really hope those are beta bugs and they're not gonna be here in full release, you know what! we've seen a couple of bugs already but for a baited is actually quite nice.

It kind of blinked there for a sec, oh, again what is happening here no I don't want this I guess this map is a little bit broken. Maybe, at least on the lower settings, I don't know what if you zoom in to the smoke oh it drops by quite a bit as you can see their 50s, but you know what I think I wouldn't really drop the resolution from 720p because it runs quite nicely here. It’s quite good at 720p I don't feel the need to play at the lower resolution, to be honest, of course, this is not 60 plus FPS all of the time.

At 800x600

I mean you do get quite a bit of a disadvantage at least in other games by playing at 800 by 600 and even if you don't get a disadvantage in this one the graphics are just going to look like crap. At 720p they still look all right, I don't think so to be honest that would be great anyway 79 fps on average it's it drops into the 60s very often. it drops from 60 as well as you can see by the one percent lows but overall it's quite smooth and a little bit consistent as well, it's only in explosions that it drops. So, you can clearly see now that we're playing at the beautiful gorgeous resolution of 800x600, actually, you can't really clearly see it at lowest settings once again lens flares are not looking very intensive here, and these are actually insane amounts of FPS that we're getting right now. So, we went from a 60 FPS experience or like 70 something on average at 720p to 100+ FPS, so that's just insane. It's super smooth right now, but of course, we got to make the grenade test oh that was an impact grenade, anyway, didn't really drop that much. All right it's not the best weapon to play on this map oh maybe it is good, it's first fire and it has a flashlight why does it have a flashlight explosion. In the previous map, we got 116 fps on average there and it was quite smooth I’m just ending the article.

In this one here with a little bit of gameplay, I just want to see the lens flares as well like 130s, 120s, and 130s. So, the lens players are broken in this map that's for sure and I don't like it, I would definitely choose to play this one at 720p. You can get used to this by the way I played a lot of games at 800 by 600 back in the day when I had lower-end specs, but if you have the 1050ti I'd go for 720p, and speaking of I’m just curious to see what kind of FPS you can get in this map at that resolution. Here we go that's you can read things now that's amazing it looks so much better.

All right let's start counting them wow it's uh pretty good 80s nice it drops down into the 70s at times, but mostly it will be above 60 and it's a consistent and playable experience once again as you can see it can play absolutely fine like this. The last bullet there ah come on I found an m1 garand let's hear the ding I am happy now I am happy alright guys that's been it for this article hope you enjoyed and I'll catch you in the next one very soon as always love you all bye-bye.
