That brings Nvidia's ray tracing and DLSS support to a new tier of hardware, and like all Ampere GPUs, these are second-gen RT and third-gen Tensor cores. A key difference between the RTX 3050 and its nominal predecessors, the GTX 1650 and GTX 1650 Super, is that the 3050 adds RT and Tensor cores to the mix. The official launch prices are obviously a bit of a joke right now, with most of these cards costing 50–100% more than the suggested values, but that's not likely to change any time soon.

Here's the full specs overview of Nvidia's RTX 3050, along with some competing GPUs.Īlong with the RTX 3050, we've included the RTX 2060, GTX 1650 Super, and RX 6500 XT as points of reference.

It also includes 8GB of GDDR6 memory, though on a narrower 128-bit interface than the RTX 3060. While the GA107 used in mobile RTX 3050 Ti and RTX 3050 only uses an x8 PCIe interface, the desktop RTX 3050 uses the larger GA106 chip and includes full PCIe 4.0 x16 connectivity, along with full support for all the latest video codecs. Thankfully, Nvidia hasn't put the Ampere architecture on the chopping block to create the desktop RTX 3050. But setting aside real-world pricing and supply, how does the RTX 3050 stack up to the competition?

Unfortunately, GPU prices are still extremely inflated, and while cryptocurrency prices have plummeted, that doesn't mean we'll see reasonable prices on the best graphics cards any time soon. On paper, there aren't any major compromises to speak of, and the launch price falls squarely into the mainstream market at $249. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 feels a bit like a breath of fresh air after last week's rather unimpressive launch of the AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT.
