    • Maximum Number of Displays Supported: 4
    • Advanced Graphics Rendering Technique(s): DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling), Ray tracing (Imaging technology designed to improve graphics rendering.)
    • GPU Video Memory (RAM): 8 gigabytes (Random-access memory (RAM) is a GPU’s, or graphics cards, short-term data storage, which allows active information to be accessed quickly. The size and type of RAM determines how efficiently the GPU can handle large amounts of information at one time. For example, larger amounts of RAM for gaming or video editing increases performance.)
    • GPU Video Memory Type (RAM): GDDR6 (Each type of RAM delivers a different level of speed, bandwidth, energy efficiency and performance.)
    • Slot Size: 2-slot (A graphics card only requires one PCIe/PCI slot for connection to the motherboard but, depending on size, may block other slots. The slot size listed by the manufacturer is therefore not an exact measurement of the card's size but an indication of how much clearance will be available after it is installed.)
    • Product Height: 41 millimeters (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Width: 120 millimeters (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Length: 213 millimeters (The out of box length of the item. Length is measured as the longest dimension of the item.)
    • Graphics Processing Unit (GPU): NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 (Often referred to as a graphics card, a graphics processing unit (GPU) is the electronic circuitry responsible for manipulating and processing computer graphics/images and accelerating video decoding. Ultimately, a powerful GPU will provide a boost for anything involving visuals, including games, graphic design, and video editing.)

Q: Has it been sold out or is it not in stock yet

A: I was on the website refreshing the page the very moment when the item page/entry was added to the product search. It was already in 'Sold Out' status the moment it appeared, so I don't think they had any stock to sell. Also the nVidia official product page for the RTX 3050 doesn't link to here, but to another retailer. I think this page is just a placeholder.

Q: When was this available to purchase ? I have been checking the site all week.

A: It hasn't gone available yet. It's supposed to go in stock very soon today though.

Q: Why did this sell out in less than 2 minutes? And why is it $100 over MSRP? You guys should be ashamed.

A: I was on the website refreshing the page the very moment when the item page/entry was added to the product search. It was already in 'Sold Out' status the moment it appeared, so I don't think they had any stock to sell. Also the nVidia official product page for the RTX 3050 doesn't link to here, but to another retailer. I think this page is just a placeholder.

Q: How much power is needed

A: Hi Allen, A minimum of 500watts is recommended for the RTX 3050 Hope this helps!

Q: Will this work on a pcie 3 system?

A: Hi User, Yes this GPU is backwards compatible with PCI Express Gen 3.0. Hope this helps! - John

Q: Can this card work with a core i7 3770 with 16gb of ram without any bottlenecks.

A: The CPU runs the os platform and the GPU runs the vram.
