Here's the link of comparison between the two cards: http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=3779&gid2=.... What are core speed and boost clock for?

Why are the core speed and boost clock of 1050 higher than the 1050 Ti one?

That link is painful.
But the reason is it got less shaders and TMUs. While both are 75W cards. (Non OC at least).
Base clock is always guaranteed unlike boost. The boost number is a guaranteed boost clock ability. Tho it usually boost much higher.

Is it more core speed and more boost clock, more FPS?

Yes.
But not between the 1050 and 1050TI. If they had the exact same config yes. But they dont.
As stated above, if you take two identical processors, the one with higher clocks will be faster. The 1050 and 1050Ti are not the same processor though

Actually, they're both GP107 cores. The difference is that the 1050ti has more shader processing units unlocked. This will create more heat, which would likely account for the lower stock clocks. That said, boost 3.0, with decent cooling will likely bring that clock up quite a bit.
As mentioned both the 1050 and 1050ti are firmware-driver capped to 75W even when using the auxiliary power connector, this means the maximum clocks for a custom 1050ti cap out at around 1911MHz such as the MSI GTX1050ti: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti,4787-6.html
Meaning it cannot make use of the actual available power due to possibly being originally designed specifically as a mainboard power (66W+9W) card with no auxiliary to begin with (not sure if Nvidia has or will change this for the custom AIB that use the auxiliary power).
So fair to say the 1050 with less Cuda cores,texture units and I think 1 less GPC (the 1050ti with 48 texture units will need 6SM and that means 2 GPC) would use less power and so hit higher clocks.
Cheers

Which make them different and incomparable, clock for clock.
If I want to buy 1050 Ti, MSI or Gigabyte?
I would consider any of the decent manufacturers that has the best deal on at the time, including EVGA.
Some like Zotac as well, but at a certain price point one also needs to consider the AMD 470 (but a reasonable AIB and that pushes the price gap again).
