Gaming GeForce RTX 3050, Desktop, 6G Graphics Card (Nvidia, 96-Bit, Boost Clock: 1507 MHz, 6GB GDDR6 14 Gbps, HDMI/DP, Ampere Architecture)

I decided rather than getting a new PC I'd upgrade the video card as I noticed a lot of the games I was playing was just a video issue, not a CPU issue. This card is perfect for the games I play which are mainly simulations and colony builders. It never seems to run hot and drives two 4k monitors without a sweat. I'm using it on a 10th Gen i5 machine. It sloted in perfectly as as it draws power from the bus and needs no new power connection was a perfect cheap upgrade.

I needed to upgrade a ten + year old 970 card in my Plex server and this card was priced right and more than powerful enough for video transcoding. (The 970 was still plenty honestly, but Nvidia driver support apparently went away.) This card has more memory, runs more efficiently than the old card, and draws less power and doesn't even need a separate power connection directly to the power supply. A great upgrade for an aging system. Obviously not something for modern gaming or anything, but if you're running media servers or virtual machines off a NAS or something, this has all you need.

I managed to break the fan on my old 1650 super while cleaning it. While waiting for new fan parts, I decided to order this for.. reasons. Lol It runs fine, and is definitely has a bit more display effects in gaming than the 1650 and the extra Vram is useful as well. So far, MSI quality seems as good as it ever was, which is excellent. The only brand that I have used for over a decade on several builds. Time will tell. Very happy with this for sure!

Bought for my son who was building a computer . He stated it was easy to install. Got it for a great deal but I see that the prices have gone up dramatically in the last 4 months

Works well. Two months later, the price went up $70.

This card performs great at a max of 70 watts (from the PCI Express slot only) and best I can tell it's giving me better than 1060 6 GB performance at a fraction of the power, not factoring in the gains that can be had via DLSS 2 which the 1060 does not support. Works great in the cheap, former office PC that I bought which only has a 200ish watt power supply. Runs cool and quiet if the PC has adequate ventilation; otherwise it will turn your PC into a radiating heater under full load. If your cheap office PC did not come with a case fan I highly recommend getting one (around $7 for a good one) to keep temps low. Only bummer is the price: $190 when I bought it (more expensive than the cheap office PC I put it in). I realize this is a bit of a niche product but it still stung a little. If your PC has extra power connector(s) for GPUs you're much better off getting a GeForce 3060 or Radeon 6600 (or better if you can find it) for the same or less money.

I like this GPU for the money. It's kind of hard to beat. I have used two of them now in two seperate builds and I have zero complaints. They do not have a connection to goto your PSU they are powered from the PCIe slot. I've seen no chop/lag in any game played so far so the performance is great . Super easy to install. Drivers readily available. This is my I wouldn't say budget GPU because you typically think cheap and just enough to get by when you say that. But at the same time its not a overpriced high end GPU either. So I will call this my best all around GPU pick!

I initially liked the card, but after a few months of testing, i got better frames on my 1660TI (that was used to begin with.) This card is now the weak link in my pc, and turning on raytracing drops ALL games below 30fps. nothing else was changed besides ram, and i used nvidia's tuning software to overclock the card. I thought my 1660 died but it turned out to be a bad ram stick, I'd have never bought the 3050 otherwise. Overall, I'd say save another $140 and buy a 50 series, or spend less and buy a 1660TI if you can find one. Games play tested-Helldivers 2, Escape from Tarkov, War Thunder, Marvel: Rivals, Doom: The Dark Ages Fast shipping as always, and the card arrived in perfect shape with zero damage to the box it was shipped in

I wasn't expecting much out of this graphics card but the packaging it came is awesome and the quality and performance of the card has made my gaming experience a lot better but I do often find my GPU either maxed out at % but I can run almost every game and with decent graphics and performance.

Elegí ests grafica por que mi presupuesto es limitado, además de que es un equipo secundario, tengo otro con una 4060 OC, también de msi Trabaja sorprendentemente bien en diseño 3d con programas como photoshop, blender y substance, no he tenido problemas, es super fluida y en renderizacion prácticamente no se nota mucho la diferencia con la 4060 Lo que me agrado es lo sencillo que es la instalación, prácticamente plug & play, solo la montas en el pcie y ya esta funcionado. En la página oficial de nvidia bajas dos controladores para optimizarla que de hecho viene el enlace en el manual de usuario , tiene configuraciones optimizadas de acuerdo al uso, como gaming, diseño o incluso IA. Esta generación ya admite funciones de IA de nvidia y tiene un buen número de núcleos CUDA para trabajar en ello. También es útil el afterburner de msi ya que la escanea y ajusta automaticamente un ligero overclok para obtener un mayor rendimiento de forma segura Otro punto a favor es que esta grafica ea que no utiliza alimentación dedicada pcie como otras ya que es de bajo consumo, solo 75 w, que los toma directamente del puerto pcie x16. Los 6gb tal vez son un poco limitantes pero se puede configurar el bios para que unifique la ram principal del pc con la vram de la grafica y tener mas memoria disponible para trabajar. En resumen es una gráfica con un buen desempeño a un exclente precio, yo la compre por 3300 con promoción.

best option for 70 a watt card. Only 600$ plus cards are faster for the 70 watt limit.

Increible el funcionamiento de la tarjeta excelente calidad por su precio, me sorprendio que no necesitará el cable de alimentacion atx para su funcionamiento.

This is NOT a PCI-E 16X card. It is just an 8X card which is disappointing
