Good to see you looking on form Mike.👍 Liked this review. Since the 'purge', with the chaos from the lack of parts et its a relief to see some more availability AND reasonable NOT spiked pricing. 👀Luckily I upgraded my systems in 2019 BEFORE hell opened its gates.. which also meant I had some surplus parts et I managed TWO builds that were well received by certain members of the family / friends et keeping more or less to the original pricing et. 😉It will be interesting, 'moving forward' with the fractious momentum caused by the hype and robbery re the energy companies as to how that will affect us builders.

I had the asus phoenix single fan model for a while. It was a nice card quiet, didn't use much power and solid performance especially with dlss. It's problem is the price to performance sucks, especially if you're willing to go with AMD who at present offer soon really good price to performance cards.

Thanks for great review Mike 🥰👍😇. I was fortunate enough to purchase an RTX 3050 “Asus Phoenix” ITX version GPU for $255USD here in Australia 🇦🇺 and it runs sub 60c under a full load or gaming (RTX / DLSS running) so the 50-series chip is easy to cool imo. The RTX 3050 I feel should be a $200-220USD GPU … but recent world events of the past 2.5years ….. we all know them 😵💫🤔 has seen this price fit into the 60-series RTX series of old 😢😡. Nvidia did create a great chip and it’s much better value, imo, than the RRP of the 6500XT 🤦♀🤦🤦♂💀☠

@cptwhite Жыл бұрын
Yeah it's not a terrible card, it's just priced itself out of the market. If these had launched at £219.99 in the UK they'd have been an excellent budget option with the 8gb buffer and DLSS. As it is they're priced out of the market by used GTX1070 or even GTX1080 if you're spending less than £200, or RX6600 if you want to be new for sub £300. Ray tracing is a non-issue at this budget end so I don't even factor it in.

Likes: *MSI adds that black support bar from PCI slot mount to PCB, doesn't appear any other manufacturer does this that I know of and makes sag a non issue. *The reviewer covered all the aspects of the card that are important to me. Good to know the backplate is indeed metal and thermal pads from the back of the GPU and PCB can help move heat too it. *RTX 3050 is a pretty cool running card with a 130w TDP rating, but MSI still didn't skimp on the heatsink. Also I believe this card has fan stop under 60 Celsius or whatever thermal threshold the BIOS on the card is dictating. Usually 60c. *Don't like only 8GB ram but this is the lower end. I owned a 1660Ti (6GB vram) and it performed great! This card outperforms that and adds "RTX" as in RT cores and Tensor cores for hardware level support of some cool features GTX cards are less efficient with. *Not a big fan of so many cards being drab gray and black, but this at least has some RGB to spruce it up and the backplate looks clean. Thanks for showing it Mike. I prefer the rounded looking shrouds on MSI's older Armor cards, but even with all the angles, MSI cards are pretty nice aesthetically. *Single 8pin, nice. DISLIKES: *That ugly dead grass blade side of the PCB could use a good SHARPIE! 🤡 Overall review of this review: 10/10 Mike FTW.

It's a real shame about the price on these cards, if they were 170-180 then it might make sense and given the fact new 2060's can be had around the 200 mark just makes the 3050s dead in the water. For by all that you can't go wrong with MSI's Gaming X series, been knocking it out the park for a long time now with their GPUs.

A little constructive feedback. Try to make your videos around 10 minutes. even tho your vids are well detailed its too dragged out, most people wont sit through 20 minutes, ive seen numerous polls of this question being asked by channel owners. i think you should change your approach to this to help your channel get more popular. i myself dont watch 20 minutes unless its a very interesting topic that doesnt revolve around 1 product. Also instead of titling your video MSI 3050 Ti review , a much more catchy title would be "Is the RTX 3050 worth it in late 2022?" If that makes sense. followed with some gaming benchmarks
