The RTX 3050’s specs are unsurprising; it’s a standard 1080p high settings GPU, with the added benefit of being able to theoretically use Nvidia’s ray tracing and DLSS in games that support it.
For a refresher the RTX 3050 is essentially a cut-down 3060, and uses the same GA106 die from that $329 GPU.
Nvidia’s “budget friendly” Ampere GPU has finally arrived in the form of the RTX 3050.
Generally speaking, the RTX 3050 performs about the same as the Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti, which came out two years ago.
