That list was last updated over four years ago. This one is more up to date. Although it doesn't yet take into account the newest GTX 1600 series, all of which (as far as I know) are fine.

One thing we can be sure of is that a GTX 1050 (non-Ti) will run things better and at higher graphics settings than its predecessors provided that the system it is running in has the required power supply and cooling systems to support it. I don't know about everything being on Ultra across the board, there may be some trade-off issues on performance by doing so and different players' experiences will vary. There is a point though which is reached for most users at or around the GTX 1060 and its equivalents in the 1600 series after which GPU improvements are lost on the game, as it is only designed to use up to 800 MB of vram.
Does that help at all? I know you have other uses for your computers, certainly you will feel/see the difference between a 1050 and the higher end cards when performing professional photography rendering tasks.
