Description:

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 is an entry-level Ampere-based graphics card targeted at budget gamers and casual content creators. It is available in both desktop and laptop variants, with some key differences between them. Desktop RTX 3050: Architecture: Ampere (GA106 or GA107) CUDA Cores: 2560 Base Clock: ~1550 MHz (varies by model) Boost Clock: ~1777 MHz VRAM: 8GB GDDR6 (128-bit) Memory Speed: 14 Gbps TDP: 130W Power Connector: 1x 6-pin (some models require an 8-pin) Ray Tracing & DLSS: Supports both but limited performance Laptop RTX 3050: Architecture: Ampere (GA107) CUDA Cores: 2048 Base Clock: Varies (based on power limits) Boost Clock: 1057–1740 MHz VRAM: 4GB GDDR6 (128-bit) Memory Speed: 12 Gbps TGP (Power Draw): 35W - 80W (depends on laptop cooling and manufacturer design) Ray Tracing & DLSS: Limited RT performance, but DLSS can help in supported games Performance Overview Gaming: 1080p gaming with medium to high settings in most modern titles. Struggles with ray tracing unless DLSS is enabled. Better than the GTX 1660 Ti but weaker than RTX 3060. Productivity: Decent for video editing (DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro). Basic 3D rendering and AI workloads but limited by VRAM. Is It Worth It? Good For: Budget gaming, casual content creation, esports titles. Not Ideal For: 1440p gaming, heavy ray tracing, high-end rendering. Would you like a comparison with other GPUs like the RTX 3060 or GTX 1660 Ti? 🚀
