They should just release a rtx 4090 2gb that runs on 32bits memory bandwith and has 1000 cuda cores.
Why not scam the consumer base properly if you want to scam them anyways?
One a sidenote all of this makes you appreciate even more why EVGA dropped their gpu lineup and broke ties with nvidia. They would be forced to participate in all this sh*tfest.
HAHAHAHA, just wait, for you will get an offer letter from Nvidia soon.
omg Amd user alert
@@scoob892lol just because someone makes a statement based on nvidia’s corrupted history, that person suddenly becomes amd fanboy???
@@scoob892I use both and both companies do scummy things, you can call out bad things about a company that you kinda like.
@@scoob892 Hope you're just being facetious and not serious here. I have issues with both AMD and Nvidia and love their products for different reasons but criticism where criticism is due, Nvidia would be more than likely to pull shit like that. RTX 4070 with GDDR6 vs the original GDDR6X retailing for the same MSRP for instance. It's not such a big deal and heavy impact as with this 3050 but it still paints a picture about them squeezing out money wherever they see fit.
The graphics card situation is crazy
Fr 💀
LMAO, Dawid should have called the video that to conform to the meta 🤣
The greatest graphic card situation of all time
Pyrocynical would be proud
Pyrocynical vs Penguinz0 video title situation is crazy
Wished Nvidia released a RTX 3030 just so I can call it the RTX Tiddy Tiddy
Luckily we still have the Audi TT RS
*Thiddy thiddy
the rtx 3010
RT 3030*
Hope it comes in 2 fan model so you can imagine it as the tiddy
Nvidia realized that 8GB GDDR was sufficient for a lower end graphics card and decided they can't have that... so they gimped it like the rest of their lineup that isn't a RTX4090.
100%
It should be illegal to sell a product at a certain tier of memory or whatever have you then, relaunch the product in the shadows with far less memory without adjusting anything but a -# at the end of the skew. It's an intentional deception.
True but both companies have been doing it for decades with very few repercussions other than snarky comments from gamers who know better. I doubt it will change.
Otherwise known as a scam or fraud.
I'm in the EU. Please do some useful again.
Ban import of deceptive products and also register CUDA as a monopoly. Because i'm also a professional user (engineer) and buying a Quadro has gotten so much worse.
Every crap uses CUDA and this is very bad for the customer.
It won't be illegal. Too much corruption. Remember net neutrality?
but i love socks at christmas D:
Polyester Temu socks that make your feet sweat.
Same here. Nothing nicer than some nice new socks to slip your feet into.
Yea. Nothing beats a good pair of Kashmir socks and boxers. Better than being gifted *starfield*
I see Nvidia still hasn't learned from their "unlaunched" 4080 12GB that a completely different core count die should be a different name.
192bit went from 60 class to 80 class lmao. They really shot for the moon.
For the 50 series, you'll have to pay $500 for an RTX 5020 wirh 4GB of VRAM.
It’ll come with 6gb, but they’ll introduce subscription tiers. $x/month for 2gb, more for 4gb, and a super premium tier to get access to all 6gb.
Yeah but with a 32 bit bus it will be as fast as the 3050 6gb and only use 30watt. Which would be impressive. As always.. the issue is the name and the price. not the hardware.
G'day Dawid,
I think you should call it the "RTX Thidy Thidy" 😂
PS down here in Australia to buy new the RTX3040 6GB is $279AUD vs RX6600 $285AUD,
🤔it would be interesting to see the performance difference between 3040DLSS vs 6600 no upscaling
Came here for this exact comment!
Its like people forget that FSR exists, and is almost as good as DLSS, and old games do not have DLSS but using AMD drivers you can force it to use FrameGen despite it not actually supporting it natively. So it will perform better for games of past, present, and future (8gb vram vs 6gb and better raw performance)
@@ricksasmal9330calling FSR almost as good as DLSS is crazy
@@12Rosen it is, and I say this as an RTX 3050 4GB laptop user. When using DLSS and FSR at balanced, at 1080P (so it upscale from something like 720P though I will have to check) I honestly can't tell too much of q difference, except that I get more FPS with FSR and FSR has very slightly more artifacting, though while playing spiderman miles Morales I honestly could not tell even in cutscenes
@@12Rosen Performance wise I dont know, fidelity wise dlss is miles ahead but fsr is not unusable. Itll get the job done if you really need the frames
This is great as low-profile or single-slot cards that run off PCIe power alone, but the marketing is absolutely criminal.
100%, it's a great replacement for the 1650. But it's a 3040.

They did the same thing with the 3060, crazy thing is they could’ve just called it a 3050 ti which they already have naming precedence for
There is already a 3050ti 4gb mobile version 😂
@@AboldGuy which, of course, isn’t named 3050ti mobile 🤭
Fun fact, newer gaming laptops with rtx 3050 actually also use this 6gb variant, and is much better than the pitiful 4gb version with 2048 cores. So moving to the same gpu laptops got a good upgrade while desktop diy suffered, but i guess its also the best no-external-power-cable needed gpu
I have a laptop with the 3050 4GB and it is terrible even at 1080p 144Hz on any game that is half demanding and always runs out of VRAM which tanks the fps
I think the best in that case would be the RTX A2000.
@@burrfoottopknotthe 2gb of vram helps it a lot, I've watched comparison videos and in certain games its a big improvement
@@LennethValkyrieify too bad the price of those arent
@@LennethValkyrieify Unfortunately that costs $500+ and this is $180.
This card is basically a replacement for 1660 that is still being sold all over the world for the same price, so basically You are getting the upgrade for the same price.
Sure it falls down on its face when compared with Radeon 6600 which is just a few $ more, but it doesn't require upgraded PSU and will work in basically any pre-built system.
Wouldn't have minded seeing it run Cyberpunk just so we can turn that graphics card into a toaster
Er, he does, and it runs it just fine.
The card runs cool as it only uses 70W.
I'm still better, and by a long shot.
What kind of VRAM ya got?
@@CaveyMoth😂😂😂
🤓
NVIDIA needs to be sued for this nonsense, this is some criminal ish.
Thanks for having the backbone to call out Nvidia for this
Dawid has so much backbone he's practically a stegosaurus.
Nvidia does not care ... As long as people do not buy AMD GPUs on mass, Nvidia is going to be "whatever suckers". While going to the bank with their AI die's that sell for 10* the amount per mm2.
YH now name a better graphics card that doesn't require external power. these reviewers are so use to getting given high end gpus for free.
ngl i'd actually searched the: "how much vram does rtx 2050 have bro?"
it's a 3050 mobile with 4GB over a 64 bit bus 💀
Yeah 1080p on a 1440p panel can look quite bad. For those that are wondering it's because the pixel scaling is funky, unlike 1080p on a 4k panel which is a nice even and square 4x pixel count.
So 4 pixels turn into 1.
Nonetheless, it never looks the same as native 1080p (in the latter case).
As someone who plays the Switch on a 1440p panel, I've noticed.
the 6600 is 180 USD on newegg, should be 240 CAD ish, much better
Rtx 3050 is 160 on Amazon
This is a fantastic option if you need to upgrade a system without supplemental power. I used this on an office PC with a 9th Gen i7 and it was a great little machine for around $325 US. If you’ve got access to a more robust power supply, used 6600-6650xts and 3060s provide a better value, but for the role This card is supposed to fill it’s pretty good. It was stupid to call the card a 3050 though. They really launched these cards in reverse, this 6Gb version should’ve released as the 3050 and the 8gb should’ve been a 3050 super or something
Exactly this. It's a good card. 60W in most modern games at 1080 with RT? Amazing. However, the price should be under 200€, and the name really should be 3040/4040.
@@lordwafflesthegreat oh man here in the states they’re $165-175. Would be hard to justify spending an extra 50 bucks.
FYI, the rtx 2050 is also a GA 107. The 3050 8gb also has a 'speical binned' ga107 variant that was asked for by SI's. The 3050 6gb is pretty much just a reject part of THAT and does indeed have more in common with the dumpster fire of the 2050/3050 laptop cards... which yes.. are all GA107..
Oh and XESS crapped out because of Nvidia's poor drivers when it deals with memory handling.
Wow I didn't know that, kinda odd calling it a 2050 when it's an ampere gpu
@@tyler6602 100%. The 2050 naming scheme is even weirder than this "3040" card.
Bought the Inno3D version of this as the shop I went to didn't have AMD cards and my budget was real tight. As someone who upgraded from a laptop with Intel HD 4000, I guess it was an upgrade. Could have gone used but I didn't want to risk getting a bad one.
A 1660 Ti, 1080ti, or a 5700xt would be better than this so called "RTX 3050". An buying Used parts for PC is a bit risky. But the point is to do more Research of what youre buying in general. I got lucky with my 6700Xt when i bought it used on Ebay. The guy said he didn't even used the card that much so its practically still "new". Honestly, the "3050" wont even last that long depending on what games youre playing.
The reason why this is also called a 3050 is because the og 3050 is more of a 3050 Ti, 107 dies are normally associated with the 50 series cards.
The only 3050 6GB's that have any right to exist are the low profile ones. Even then Nvidia should have just released a 75W power limited version of the 3050 8GB for low profile cards (3040 would be a good model number for such a product).
Full size ones? why? 3050 8GB in full size is already cheap and entry level enough.
Hey look someone who understands how conceptually dumb the 3050 6gb is!
I've built small form factor machines that needed a low powered video card without external cord so this card would work well in that situation.
Any new Nvidia card is always put above a tier it's actually in. Like this 3050 is actually a 3040, but if Nvidia called it a 3040 it would warrant a lower price.
Wrong, this 3050 doesn't need any 6pin or 8pin, which makes it a good optiplex gpu
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 so a niche use case makes it okay for Nvidia to uptier a card so that they can charge more money for it?
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 what kind of stupid opinion is this
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 meh.. only if you go SFF. For less money than a 3050 6gb you could get a 1660super for less than 100 bucks plus a 400-500w PSU to power it. You could even get a SATA to PCIe adapter if you wanna save on the PSU, it works but only if you are willing to undervolt it to no more than 130w total board power.
Even the 1660 non-super outperforms the 3050 6gb. But I do agree that for SFF builds, the 3050 6gb is actually one of the most compelling options (just make sure it's a sff with room for a dual slot GPU, definitely do research)
@@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716 yeah its good for optiplex, so what..its 3040 in performance, spin however you want its 3040...
Shrinkflation with GPUs is crazy.
This should be priced at $120 US.
They cost about $160 new idk why he paid $244 for one. Probably to make it an even worse value for the vid but overpaying on purpose Doesn’t actually make the card that much worse of a value. It’s just dishonest
He lives in Canada, Candian money is worth less than US money.
Why? The 1650 was a $160 card and this is it's direct replacement. $160 would be reasonable but we don't get that with Nvidia so it's $180

Could have been the best budget graphics card if it was priced and named correctly.
Another case of, it's not a bad card, it's just a bad name.
It's the same problem Nvidia has had for a while - If they had named and priced the card correctly, this would have been lauded as a fantastic product within its tier. Like usual, however, Nvidia can't help but insert a stick into their own bicycle wheels.
Gotta love Nvidia and AMD doing bait and switch with lesser GPUs sharing the same name as their bigger cousins while not performing anywhere near said bigger cousin.
@@riven4121 What is the AMD equivalent? Genuinely asking, I cant recall like a 6600 6gb ver or stuff like that.
Im being genuine I really dont recall AMD ever pulling a "call the gpu the exact same but sell a weaker version slyly". Like iNvidia just did it with the 4070 GDDR6 ver
@@ridleyroid9060 RX 580 2048SP, which had the exact same name as its bigger cousin and actually performed like an RX 470. It launched in China then began slowly being sold globally.
At half the power usage, it actually seems like a good low end/ small form factor card.
However, the price needs to be well below 200€.
And, of course, just call it a 3040. ffs Nvidia, just say you made a really efficient low end card and be proud of it.
I'd personaly love such a low power RTX card in a media centre PC.
LOL!!!! Are people still calling video games "e-sports"? I had no idea. Want to reverse merge with my SPAC?
When I hear NVidia I always picture a person drilling someone's behind with a huge grin on their face. The person being drilled is the market yelling, please stahp.
Guys...do you still remember the days of GTX 750ti and GTX1050ti ? Also what baffles me is the People who hype integrated GPUs of Handheld Gaming devices like ROG ally or Steam Deck... but they bash the GPUS like RTX 3050... which is like 2 or 3 times more powerful lol
That's because the iGPU in those handheld devices are fairly good for what they are but also barely sip power on a battery powered device, while this is a full sized GPU in a desktop that's literally just a worse version of a card that already existed.
There's a reason people praise the performance of the handhelds. When they're sipping on that battery powered device, but still making things look and run decent, but then you see THIS...there's a lot of consideration for how little power those little iGPUs use, for what they can do.
I think thus card is meant to be placed into a low end pre built pc. Its unfair to compare it to gpus that use more than pci power.
just because OEM's do it doesn't make it any less despicable
In my country people are buying this 6gb 3050 for some reason. The Rx 6600 is just 10% more expensive
@@victorlima6113 iNvidia brainrot is strong. At this pricepoint you cant even use RT as a selling point nor dlss imo.

There is a good use case scenario for this card. Turning an old office PC with a low power PSU into a basic gaming rig.
@@ridleyroid9060 YH now name a better graphics card that doesn't require external power. these reviewers are so use to getting given high end gpus for free.
I did buy a low profile MSI 3050 6gb for my htpc. Really that’s the best use for this card. Even that is too expensive. I can’t think of much else that it is cost-effective. EDIT: It’s a far cry from the days of the 1050, which was a budget (and fairly good performance) standout.
i'm so happy they release the 3040 because I have the 3050 8gb and now i'm supreme to 3040 users 😁
Its going for $150 atm, might pick one up. All I play is Counter Strike in low settings.
Nothing can beat my GT 710
I have a GT 210, I stole it by sticking it down my pants, It was going straight to the heap, I was like not today brother.
180€~200€ just so you can play 1080p on medium settings. wtf. I really hate this timeline.
Nvidia decided to call it a RTX 3050 instead of a 3040 because they had such a hard time selling the GTX 1630 (which was also much worse than even the GTX 1650).
Next time test CS2 on maps with water sources, like Ancient

Jensen was left extremely bitter when the world didn't accept two 4080 versions, which would have been vastly different apart from their names, so he forced his staff to find a way to make it happen elsewhere, anywhere. Turns out this entry level product is it, then.

I own a Gigabyte oc low profile RTX 3050, running in a HP 290 SFF (warning: had to mod the cpu 4 pin power plug to get the gpu to fit in the case).
Upgraded the cpu to an i5 9500.
Good combination, I'm satisfied with the total performance.
The case is very tight and the gpu temps aren't great.
Afterburner settings are: Power Limit 80%, Temp Limit 90*, Link off, core clock +100, memory clock +600.
Tbh I've recently recommended the 3050 6GB to a friend with a VERY conservative prebuilt. We're talking i5-12400 and a GTX1650. The problem? He barely has a budget and the PSU is a horrendous 250W, so no supplemental power without also upgrading the PSU
The i5 12400 is pretty good actually
@@BonusCrook Oh yeah, definitely. I wasn't throwing shade at the chip but more at the PSU situation that pretty much only allows a 3050 6GB as the most powerful, most recent 70W TDP Card

@@BonusCrook yeah, it really is. Though with it also being another, lower spec chip isn't it pretty much the same situation as the 1060 3GB vs 6GB?
They should have also named the 3gb version of the 1060 the 1055, If the core is different, then I feel the name of the card should relate to that.
@@IvanOoze1990 1050 Ti super
That's why I had to search deep for a 3060 with 12g, when Google just kept sending me to sellers trying to short change me on the 6g versions.
DLSS is really the killer feature of new NVIDIA cards, the way it can "pull up" a cheaper card is amazing. With all that said, however, if you have $250 to spend on a 3050 then go find a used 3060 or even 3070 instead and save yourself the hassle.
Fro some reason I can get a RTX 3050 6GB for the same price of a GTX 1650 4G GDDR6 and its 5W less but WAY MORE PERFORMANCE AND DLSS support and doing some slight overclock would be fun
Another way to take it is that this is the fastest "no extra power" graphics card right now. I was looking at it as better than a kick in the butt. Might be more interesting to compare it to say a 1060 or a 1080 to see where we are.
It is between a 1060 and 1660 super in terms of performance. Look it up.
I honestly surprised Dawid didn't go to call it "thirty-thiddy"
I think they took an RTX 3050 mobile GPU, added some fans to it, and called it a day.
The RTX A400 is probably worse than this (note - I said A400 not A4000)
New Dawid video while eating breakfast goes crazy
I’m shocked it took this long for him to discover this hate crime.
This is the end result of coordination between AMD and NVIDIA maintaining the top performance tier monopoly. Even when AMD had a node advantage, they just made the die smaller to stay out of the top tier. They work together, and shit like this rolls down hill.
It's only $160 ish USD on Amazon, which isn't actually bad for what you get. Most people aren't enthusiasts and this card will make many people happy for the price.
people love to pile on Nvidia for them doing the same thing that AMD has been doing for 20 years.
It's still a scam regardless though. I would rather buy a 1660 ti instead. If I was starting out in PC gaming; Or even better yet a 1080 ti, they're going for 140+ dollars one ebay right now which is insanity.
And the people that aren't really well knowledge about computers, they're going to play Fortnite which I know performance mode exists in tbe game, but again you can buy a 5700xt for example at the same price for better performance for you money.

@@The_One_Eyed_Rouge Yeah but this is a modern card with modern features, and at that price point it's not a scam. Plus doesn't the 1660 ti not have tensor cores? so dlss cant be used. It also cant use RT, even though these are low power cards and doesn't matter in most cases.
If they want a noob trap, they should just release a 3030 and market how it sounds kinda like a gun caliber associated with a cowboy. :V
If they had called it a 3040 and priced it at $199 it could've been something worth considering.
This "RTX 3040" card is selling very well here. Looks like nVidia knew, how overpriced their products were, and people will still buy them.
in all fairness everything is getting smaller to keep the price down, were all getting less for the same money everywhere. look at the fast food industry
When they making 5% better GPU with small upgrade they rolling out grand marketing company, give GPU special suffix and inform everyone that this thing slightly more expensive, but better.
When they downgrade GPU they like "I'm done everything I could do. Here my work ends. Have a nice day".
2:29 Small correction: The 8GB variant may also come with the GA107, but has the full 2560 CUDA cores and 128 bit memory.
Nvidia really released some weird cards this gen. I am extremely happy with my 4070 Ti Super for 1440 P gaming. I miss the days of the Voodoo 2 cards and the old 6,7, and 8 series Evga cards.
I wish we could add ram like we could in the past , found an old video card which could do all the old modes, stock was 160k VRAM it had 4 megs. This should still be a thing.
At that point I am skipping the 4000 series all together, and will wait at least 6 months before trying the 5000. I have zero trust in nvidia anymore.
Completely agree - this is a RTX3040. Which is fine, the world needs low-power graphics cards to upgrade OE systems, fit in small systems with poor airflow or whatever. Some people just don't need more than that for the esports, retro gaming or because they're just not that fussed about eye candy. The problem is that this isn't quite cheap enough and has the same name as a more expensive card.
If little Timmy sees this on Amazon, he's probably gonna think it's a good deal, while not knowing there are better alternatives in the used market that make a world of difference. Don't be like little Timmy, make your research before buying a product.
You know, in my music studio i want a beefy computer on the CPU, RAM and drive speed side (Thunderbolt is also handy), but certainly i want a cheap graphics card that does the job and nothing else and with enough power to actually not bottleneck the CPU either (CPU power is everything in a music production rig) .... this one provides. Still, the price is hefty for a bottom of the line piece of gear ... crazy times
2:11 you know it's e-waste toaster time when the VRAM bus is just double digit
the most pathetic thing about that GPU, theres a Mobile RTX 3050 6gb, it has more cores, is clocked higher, and performs better by 10%. When a card gets beaten by it's fucking MOBILE COUNTERPART, you know it's pathetic.
Firing out videos quicker than I can ‘watchlist’ them!
Reminder that XESS is no longer directly comparable to DLSS and FSR tiers they've shifted down one so balanced for DLSS and FSR is more comparable to quality in XESS.
Geforce 1030 was actually.. great card. 2Gb VRAM, passive cooled, runs 30 watts. I bought one and it cost like $70. And it was low profile. My desktop computer was small and powerful. But technology is moved forward and todays phones has similar GPU power.
I don't mind if could by today passive cooled card with 16Gb VRAM with $70, and of course much more performance because we are talking discrete graphics card.
I can't wait until they release a 3D solitaire game with Ray tracing. Would be amazing to see
The graphics card situation just got worse
This amount of performance should be enough for modern games, if devs gave optimisation an attempt. The price for this performance should be way less though.
I feel bad for anyone who spent $250 on a 3050 when they could have just grabbed a second hand 2080ti
Lol it is 180 dollars u r exaggerating
2:30 GA107 dies match the spec for the 8GB card and are even used in many of them. The story is that the 3050 was launched before adequate GA107 had been moved from laptop to desktop, so cut down GA106 dies were used instead. apparently for whatever reason, GA106 continued being used in some 3050 8GBs while 107 was used in others. it makes sense that they would limit the 6GB model to GA107 tho, as it would be absurdly cut down from 106. I can't imagine they get many dies with half of the memory controller dead for example
impressive for the wattage at least! for the marginal increase in FPS of the 'real' 3050, it used almost twice the power!
It really should be marketed differently tho, thats for sure.
Wait for it, wait for it- before the previously only laptop 2050 RTX will surface,as a stand-alone graphics card!!!
Lower TDP card might be good for a video transcoding server or a small home lab. How does this stack up to other low profile cards such as the Intel Arc, Older Quadro, etc.?
This one us better
For that usecase I'd actually go Quicksync instead. Any 11th or 12th gen Intel CPU with iGPU.
Overall cheaper, less power consumption, superior image quality (although barely noticeable).
If encoding is your daily usecase, you'd want an i5-12500 minimum because those chips have the UHD 770 iGPU which has double encoders.
So twice as fast with transcoding/encoding.
How are you going to call it the "worst RTX card" when the 2060 is still out there?
I still remember my old ATI mach 64 with 1meg of memory expandable to 2mb, there was an open socket to slip more ram into, no idea why this went away
I think it would sell better with the Noob baiter 9000 name 😂
If you don't have or want to spend a lot of money on a GPU, go AMD. The value and prefrormance per dollar is infinitely better. They stomp Nvidia in terms of the "value" or budget GPUs
A funny test for it would be resident evil village. It warns you in the graphic settings when you go too high. Curious to see how how it fares.
The LP version of this gpu, at the right price, is a good option to upgrade a refurb office pre-build into a budget gaming rig. Anyone building a system from ground up should never get this.
The *MERCH* is ridiculously expensive !
