    Good product, can run 4k native but I wouldn't recommend running highly demanding games at 4k and a high frame rate. Good GPU for starters.

    Its nice that there is some stock for this RTX 3050 card but performance per dollar ratio is not good. Barely better than a 1660 Super/Ti, cant even beat a RTX 2060. If iu dont have a gpu or have a GTX 900 series card, its a good choice. If u have a 1060 or newer, dont bother. Save up for 3060 Ti instead which is I got instead and returned this 3050.

    Didn't see much of a difference from my gtx1060Ti but I don't play any of the latest games. Good entry video board. Card is very big make sure it will fit in your case. The 3 fans keeps the temp down.

    Fast enough and reasonably priced. Probably would have gone with a slightly faster card, but price difference for 3060 wasn’t worth it.

    I have a 3050 on two monitors and a 3070TI for the other three. The 3050 is good, but the 3070TI is a huge improvement. Get the TI if you have the extra cash
