Nvidia’s long-awaited return to the entry-level has finally come, in the form of the cut-down RTX 3050 with 6GB of VRAM, reduced cores and memory bandwidth. In this review, I’m comparing it to three other budget GPUs - the GTX 1650 Super, the AMD Radeon RX 5500, and the Intel Arc A380.

Hmm... I'm trying to get my hands on an LP model, but you can't buy it in the states yet. Anyhow, I think it's an exciting card for the LP market. The 1650 LP sells for about the same money on eBay, has 2GB less VRAM, doesn't have DLSS and is quite a bit slower. When your only other options are the RX 6400 and Arc A380... for gaming, this is pretty awesome for SFF OEM systems. This is a great option for the SFF OEM market. However, at a full height card, it makes no sense at the same price point when a $190 RX 6600 exists and wipes the floor with even the 8GB model, even with RT. It needs to be a sub $150 card. And I agree, it should have been the 3040. Had the 8GB been a 3050 Ti... it would be fine, but NVIDIA is going to do NVIDIA things.

It has ray tracing hardware, so it deserves the RTX name, at least on paper. Whether GPUs this weak should ever have ray tracing hardware in the first place is a different question though. They could be made cheaper and more powerful by leaving out a feature that isn't useful anyway on GPUs this weak. AMD should have done the same with their integrated GPUs - Radeon 740M having 4 RT cores is just dumb, who wants to use ray tracing on a GPU only as powerful as a GT 1030?

This was a great video with good comparisons. As someone that use to ONLY use computers that could fit the low profile cards and the 75watts the slot provided (think recycled business class PC), this was right up my ally. You are spot on with the idea that there are older cards that can out perform if you just give up the smaller form factor (as I did) and use more power. This is still nice to take a look at. It's too bad they can't squeeze just a bit more out of these tiny power sippers.

@_ghr0_ 5 ай бұрын

I keep seeing people say that this should be called a 3040 but you should keep in mind that the XX50 cards from Nvidia have historically been the 75w TDP drop in versions since the RTX 750 and the RTX 3050 8gb is really more of a Super based on it's power draw. This being dual slot kind of murk's the trend though and keeps out many SFF PC's but it should still fit those cheap hp mid towers. The question is what kind of performance loss is there on an old used PC w/ PCIE 3.0 that these no pin connector cards are very useful in.

Could anyone advise me please as I'm going round & round here 😊 i7-3770, GTX 1650 LP OC GDDR5, 16GB DDR3-1600, 300W PSU, 1920x1200 monitor - is it worth upgrading GPU to either RTX A2000 or RTX 3050 LP? Bearing in mind could get £120 back for 1650 & A2000 is £200 used & 3050 is £175 new. Would I get much more out of the 3770 compared with the 1650 OC? Thanks!

In on itself it is not a 'bad' card per se, but I believe it is still expensive for what it is and it came out a little too late. If this card, appropriately named as a 3040, was released two years ago it would have been awesome for an entry level gpu, even at the $180.00 price. Still this is not a bad option if you want a new entry level card or you can't use external power connectors on your pc. Great to see you cover this card, even if it is not the best price/performance wise it is still important to see how it fares, more so due the price being a relatively entry level GPU. Thanks for the video!

"it is still expensive for what it is" and that is the definition of a bad card.

@@My_Old_YT_Account And that's probably why it's so expensive. It doesn't really have competition in the 75w power draw market, besides a weaker 1650 or a more powerful, but usually more expensive, RTX A2000 (the 6GB A2000 costs over 600€ in my country, compared to 3050 at 210-230€).

It’s a perfect option for me. I’m trying to turn an old small form factor business PC with an i5-6500 into a Plex server capable of 4K transcoding. This GPU will be able to just slot right in, and it’ll be able to handle all the transcodes I could ever need, breathing new life into a PC that would otherwise end up in the scrap bin. Being small form factor, it can just tuck away out of sight and consume as little power as possible, while returning some decent performance

Could you run this with the Lossless Scaling app (on Steam) that allows you to have frame generation? Running it on a GTX 1650 LP, I get a steady 60 fps with most games, with ultra graphics at 1440p. A 60hz 4K monitor makes it the upper limit for fps.

@TeacherGamer1981 Ай бұрын

This is an excellent SFF computers card and can turn gaming on console type looking PCs into a real thing. Of course it's only FULL HD 1920/1080p card, that's something to remmeber and you could probably only need a 60 Hz refresh monitor as the card doesn't seem to exceed that FPS area
