GIGABYTE - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GAMING OC 8GB 128-bit GDDR6 Graphics Card with 3x WINDFORCE Fans - Black

I know gamers, it's difficult finding a card at a price that won't make you sell your liver. Unfortunately, the card market is still a little over-the-top and it almost feels impossible to find one. Remember, keep on the look out, you WILL find one! The RTX 3050- does what it says, it delivers 8 GB of memory and having 640 more CUDA cores than the RTX 2060, with it's boost clock being 1777 MHz. The title also mentions this is an OC card- keep that in mind. This card delivers Nvidia DLSS technology and real time Ray-Tracing- say like in games such as.. Minecraft or Fortnite. The card has 8 pins, which you can connect using a single 8 pin connector, or use a 6+2 connector that came with your prebuilt (probably) The card delivers fantastic performance. My current setup is a Ryzen 5 3600x, 16Gb 3200mhz RAM, 600W PSU. I have a fairly large case, and the card is quite chonky too- so be aware of that smaller case gamers. Now, the card does stand a little bit OVER the the 1660 TI. The card does provides an amazing FPS when playing games such as Apex Legends, Fortnite, Minecraft. You'll be getting about 90-114 FPS with ULTRA settings- heck, maybe even WAY MORE. The card also delivers customizable RGB, which you can download using the manufactures website. In terms of looks, the card looks SUPER COOL. For my setup, the card does get a little heated up though. Overall, I've been using this card for two weeks- super nice card, and it's an MASSIVE upgrade from my old Rx560. If you need an upgrade from an older GPU that can barely run minesweeper, or makes your games look like PS1 graphics, this card will do the trick. 100% recommend ! !

Unfortunately, I paid 379.99 for this card back during the GPU shortage. I just use this in my workstation and it works great with the 11900k I paired with it. Its mostly used for stock trading so I can't complain much about that. I tried running some games on it like GTA and struggled with the graphics. Definitely better cards for the money, especially in today's era.

Great starter card runs every game really well on max settings

Glad i was able to get my hands on this. at cost for that matter. works excellent in my new system.

Great graphics card for your money, I would buy again

I bought this for the 4 display ports. It works great with the 3 monitors I have hooked to it. Has 2 HDMI ports and 2 display ports. I don't play any intensive games so I can't offer an opinion on them. It does have Led lights in the gigabyte name, You can control them through the AORUS app.

I bought this for a build for my brother in law. It does fairly decently but I’d wish I’d waited and gotten him a 3060 or 3060 Ti. This is also $100 cheaper now (Dec 2022) than what I paid for in March. $300 can get you a decent used 30 series card now.

Well, I have had this card for a while now. I haven't really pushed the card to hard as I have only done Fortnite with it. But, with all max settings, I was able to get well above 150fps and still using only 50% of its capabilities. I did not see any issues with thermals and have this in a micro atx case. The only reason I bought it was because it was an open box just shy under 300.00...and it matches my color scheme I was going after. Overall, it is a pretty decent GPU.
