The new GEFORCE RTX 3050 is one of those video cards that many have been waiting for. At a time when it is still difficult to acquire a GPU due to high demand and low supply, having one more option always adds up. But if that plate is cheap and powerful, offering optimal performance to play everything that exists in 1080p at more than 60 fps, then the situation becomes ideal.
The GEFORCE RTX 3050 offers quality Ray Tracing, thanks to its dedicated cores and NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling). This is thanks to specialized AI tensor cores which allow the user to increase settings and resolution for an even better viewing experience.
The RTX 3050 would be above the RTX 2060 Super and below the 3060, being as we said, a great value for money option to play at 1080p. The price will be $ 249 and will be available from January 27.
