No experience with Debian, sorry. Under OpenSuse, it's just as easy as any 
other package, once you enable the repository. And no idea in what the 
different brands differ (probably amount and quality of memory?).

But, if you have any possibility to stretch and get the 1060, that might be a 
much better buy: the Phoronix page shows an enormous difference, and according 
to the NVidia site, the 1060 should be at least twice as powerful as the 1050 
(almost twice as many GPU cores, better clock speed).

Don't forget that using the GPU has an overhead, and you will  also be using 
the GPU for your display (unless you can configure your system to use the Intel 
graphics for the display).
