I know that the 1060 would be a lot more better than the 1050ti, but it is
also too much expensive. The 1050ti (4gb) is in the range150-160 euro, the
1060 starts from 220 euro for the 3gb, and from 290 for the 6gb...

And I do not yet have understood how much influence has the amount of
memory... Someone knows or can provide some link?

Anyway, from here

I see that that almost all the cpus are slower than any gpu...

Thankx,
BW

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).
