Description :

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 is an entry‑level Ampere‑based graphics card aimed at budget gamers and casual content creators. It comes in desktop and laptop variants. The desktop version uses the GA106 or GA107 GPU, has 2560 CUDA cores, a base clock around 1550 MHz, a boost clock near 1777 MHz, 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128‑bit bus, a memory speed of 14 Gbps, a TDP of 130 W, and a 6‑pin power connector (some models need an 8‑pin). It supports ray tracing and DLSS, though performance is limited. The laptop version uses the GA107 GPU, has 2048 CUDA cores, a variable base clock, a boost clock between 1057 and 1740 MHz, 4 GB of GDDR6 memory, a memory speed of 12 Gbps, and a TGP ranging from 35 W to 80 W depending on cooling. It also supports ray tracing and DLSS, but RT performance is modest. In gaming, the RTX 3050 can handle 1080p titles at medium to high settings, struggles with ray tracing unless DLSS is enabled, and outperforms the GTX 1660 Ti but falls short of the RTX 3060. For productivity, it is adequate for video editing in DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro, basic 3D rendering, and AI workloads, though limited by its VRAM. It is a good choice for budget gaming, esports, and casual content creation, but is not ideal for 1440p gaming, heavy ray tracing, or high‑end rendering.
