It's a GTX 950 but 3% faster. if you will be able to buy a GTX 950 for 15$ cheaper, then go for 950.

Despite the lower cost (and therefore better value for performance), you're better off with GTX 1050 Ti or GTX 1060 3GB, or you can wait for the GTX 1650 instead.

it is able to play all games in fhd with stable 60+ fps and many games even in 4k (for example I get an avarage 130 fps in league of legends in 4k with all detail at ultra) so I think it is more then enough unless you are a professional gamer with a 120fps+ skreen or have to do some really intensive grafic work

Nice GPU for the budget gamer. If you don't want 60 fps at every game and you are content with 40-50 fps, this GPU will do the work. Best if combined with G-Sync.

I've got the Asus Dual Cooler version, and works like a charm. The GTX 1050 might not be the perfect card for everyone, and might struggle to run some games in settings higher than medium, but it works great for all E-Sport titles, and does an excellent job with older games, both AAA and Indies. Tried it in some newer games and it still holds up pretty well, compared to other better cards. It's a great GPU to pair with a cheap CPU like an i3, or a Pentium G4560.
