+The GTX 1050 Ti is supported by both Nvidia's proprietary driver and the open source Nouveau driver in the Linux Kernel.
+
+It will require a 1x to 16x adapter, or some other means of adapting the 16x-sized card pins into the 1x slot on the CM4 IO Board. The card takes power from the slot, up to 75W, so make sure your PCIe adapter/riser can supply that much power.
+
+### Nouveau (open source) driver
+
+To get the Nouveau driver loaded, you have to [recompile the Linux kernel for Pi OS](https://github.com/geerlingguy/raspberry-pi-pcie-devices/tree/master/extras/cross-compile).
+
+Go to `Device Drivers` > `Graphics support` on the `menuconfig` step, and select the `Nouveau` driver to install.
+
+If you want to be able to boot the Pi all the way, make sure to blacklist the `nouveau` kernel module:
+
+```
+sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf
+
+# Put this inside the file and save it:
+blacklist nouveau
+```
+
+Now, after a reboot, you can explicitly load the module and see what happens by following `dmesg` in another terminal session:
+
+```
+sudo modprobe nouveau
+```
+
+See the linked GitHub issue for more details on the current status of this card.
