Hi! 

At first sorry for my English. :)

I want to know, is it worth in any gpu the MSI gaming  edition or any gaming edition? Why it is better? Can it give me more 10 fps in games? Or I can't even recognise the difference between that and the cheaper gigabyte model (for example)? I know that in the gaming editions, the processor speed is higher and the memory clock is higher, but I can see difference?

Thanks for the answers. :)

Non-reference graphics cards are the same as the normal versions. They do not "typically" give you higher frame rates, because they are "identical." Where the non-reference differ is that they boast a better cooling solution than the normal blower-style cards and as a result are often factory overclocked, which in turn gives you higher frames. Some of these cards also have non-reference pcb's that are made of more power phases, thus allowing for higher overclocking speeds. So, to answer your question, yes, such cards like the MSI Gaming do give you better fps, but that comes from their higher reference clock and they are usually pricier than their normal counterparts. It is worth mentioning that you can usually overclock the reference-style cards to the same speed as the others and then you will have the same fps at a lower price. Only the extremely high-end cards have their GPU's cherry-picked, like the Kingpin versions that EVGA sometimes has and the MSI Lightning cards.

The pricing is higher is because of

1.Better cooling thus more boost on the core clock

2.Asthetics and also cooling.The strix oc version of almost every card is a great example.

3.Better build quility and some cool features like with a asus dual rx 580 you get 1 year premium a/c for xplit gamecaster.

For telling difference between 10 fps depends on how much already you are getting.If you are getting above 60 with very high/ultra settings,the chances are you can't tell the difference while gaming.

I want to buy a 1050TI

It really doesn't matter which one you go for, they all perform around the same.

And witch one is the most silent?

Usually non-reference cards are more silent, but they do kick all of the heat inside your case. If you have a small enclosure with minimal airflow this can make all of the other components run at higher temps too.
