For HTPC newer cards are needed, all cards doesn't have VRR, are limited to 8 bits, but 6400 sucks for that purpose.
And to answer your question, no, 6400 has better video playback and 3D power than a 1050ti.
Yes, the 6400 is 25-50% faster than a 1050 Ti in 3D, comparing slot-power to slot-power. At PCIe 3.0, not even 4.0. I have both and ran them thru a few games last week with an i7-4790. I could not care less about encoding from a low end GPU as the 1050 Ti crashes when encoding while playing unless you power restrict it to ~55W. :eyeroll:
But missing current decoding just kills the 6400 for HTPC for those who want a smallerish PC for that. Which I also don't care about as I use a NUC for HTPC, which is an actually unobtrusive computer.
