4K HDR MKV playback
fitbrit:
One possibly big factor I neglected to mention. My AVR doesn't support 4K and HDR. Therefore I am running HDMI directly to the TV, and playing sound via the AVR by extending the display. The second device (the AVR) is not rendering the video, but is using a static 1080p image coming form the same video card. Could this be overtaxing the 1050Ti too much?
I plan to buy a new AVR as soon as I can afford it though, and perhaps that would be money better spent than a faster video card.

How are you doing that? Describe your physical connections?
What happens if you disable that secondary (audio) setup and test?

You could find out by disabling that part for testing. But I wouldn't expect it to be a huge problem.

It seems unlikely. Check CPU and GPU usage in Task Manager while a video is playing.

Hmm. 100% GPU usage as suspected. I bought this card second-hand and I wonder whether it is not performing as expected. I shall do a JRiver benchmark on my system to see.
Image benchmark: 3559, overall: 2985.
