Nvidia is rumored to increase the supply of GeForce RTX 3050
NVIDIA officially released the long-delayed GeForce RTX 3050 desktop GPU at the CES 2022 exhibition. Compared with the GeForce RTX 3060, which also uses GA106, the GeForce RTX 3050 on the desktop platform is closer to mainstream users in terms of positioning. GeForce RTX 3050 has 2560 CUDA cores, 8GB of GDDR6 video memory, 128-bit video memory bit width, 14Gbps video memory rate, and TDP is 130W.
The official suggested retail price of the GeForce RTX 3050 is $249, and it will be available on January 27th, with only non-public versions. According to Wccftech, Nvidia will increase the supply of GeForce RTX 3050, and the first batch of supply is more than GeForce RTX 3060/RTX 3060 Ti.
Previously, Nvidia said that 75% of gamers are still using GeForce GTX graphics cards, and a considerable number of them will be the target group for the GeForce RTX 3050. With the GeForce RTX 3050, Nvidia is bringing the latest ray tracing technology to the “50” series of desktop GPUs for the first time, replacing the current position of the GeForce GTX 1650 series. Compared with AMD’s newly released Radeon RX 6500 XT, although the GeForce RTX 3050 is slightly more expensive, it has more obvious advantages in memory configuration, and the overall performance should be better.
