NVIDIA will officially lift the ban on GeForce RTX 3050 graphics cards on the 27th of this month. For the first time, the latest ray tracing technology was brought to the “50” series desktop GPU, using the GA106-150 GPU. The first “50” series graphics card that supports ray tracing is the RTX 2050 on the laptop, which uses the GA107 GPU.
GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card has 2560 CUDA cores, 8GB of GDDR6 memory, 128-bit memory bit width, 14Gbps memory rate, and TDP is 130W. The single-precision floating-point performance of the GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card is 9T FLOPS, and the official suggested retail price is $249. This graphics card aims to replace the position of the GTX 1650 series, and now NVIDIA’s official RTX 3050 introduction page has also been updated. The performance comparison chart of the graphics card is given. The RTX 3050 comparison object given by the official chart is the GTX 1650 and the GTX 1050.
In terms of specifications and positioning, the performance and price of the RTX 3050 are higher than those of the rival RX 6500XT just released. In fact, judging from the performance of the RX 6500XT, it should not be a problem to directly use the GA107 core to fight it, it depends on whether NVIDIA has this plan.
