NVIDIA launches GeForce RTX 3050 and 3050 Ti laptop GPUs
In the second wave of gaming laptop updates this year, in addition to Intel’s new processors, NVIDIA is also preparing two new laptop GPU updates: GeForce RTX 3050 and 3050 Ti which was launched earlier than the desktop market, starting at $799.
The newly launched NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 and 3050 Ti notebook GPUs also have DLSS acceleration and RT game support and are locked in the $799 e-sports notebook market. In terms of performance, GeForce RTX 3050 laptops add immersive ray tracing to the latest games, accelerate performance by up to 2x with NVIDIA DLSS, and increase the speed of video editing by up to 7x vs. With DLSS acceleration, the performance of fewer games can reach 60 FPS+.
With this generation of Tensor Cores, entry-level laptops can also enjoy the performance improvements brought by DLSS and enable 60 FPS ray tracing in games like Minecraft with RTX for Windows 10, Watch Dogs: Legion, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and more.
In terms of specifications, the RTX 3050 Ti laptop GPU has 2,560 CUDA cores, 80 Tensor cores, and 20 RT cores. The GPU clock is 1030-1695 MHz, and the default GPU power consumption is 35-80W.
The RTX 3050 laptop GPU has only 2048 CUDA cores, 64 Tensor cores, and 16 RT cores. The GPU clock is 1057-1740MHz, and the default GPU power consumption is the same at 35-80W.
