ASUS Dual NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 6GB OC Edition Gaming Graphics Card - PCIe 4.0, 6GB GDDR6 Memory, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a, 2-Slot Design, Axial-tech Fan Design, 0dB Technology, Steel Bracket

I have a PC from 2012 that I have been gradually upgrading over the years. Before this upgrade, I was working with a GTX 660ti and i5-3570k. At one point, I had a GTX 980ti, which was $1000 shipped when it launched, also from Asus; however, that GPU failed after 7 years of use and I was forced to revert back to the GTX 660 ti. Now, this RTX 3050 is about on par with the 980ti from all those years ago, for $282.49 shipped, but it also has ray tracing cores and DLSS, is powered by the motherboard, and is very sleek and modular. It drives my 1440p monitor for esports at 165fps, and can also achieve 4k @ 30 fps for relatively recent single player titles, with the right settings (relying on DLSS or lowered settings, depending on the game). My options were either the GTX 1650 or RTX 3050, and I am glad dropped the extra $100 on the RTX 3050. I know the card has a bit of a reputation online, but I think that if you're looking to modernize an older setup, are locked into Nvidia's platform, and like the idea of a modular and low powered card, this could be a solid choice!

bought to support my new HDR1000 monitor, not intended for gaming.

works amazing thank you

Muy buena tarjeta, llevo con ella varios mese y no me ha dado problemas, le descargue los drivers de la pagina de asus. Corre muy bien los juegos en alta calidad sin trabarse ni nada. 100% recomendado.

Good for entry level gaming with the power of dlss and ray tracing
