MSI RTX 3050 LP 6G OC Overview

Based on the Ampere architecture and designed to handle the graphical demands of Full HD 1080p gaming, the MSI GeForce RTX 3050 LP 6G OC Graphics Card brings the power of real-time ray tracing and AI to your PC games. The GPU features 6GB of GDDR6 VRAM and a 96-bit memory interface, offering improved performance and power efficiency over the previous Turing-based generation.

The front panel of the card features a variety of outputs, such as DisplayPort 1.4a and HDMI 2.1. HDMI 2.1 supports up to 48 Gb/s bandwidth and a range of higher resolutions and refresh rates, including 8K @ 60 fps, 4K @ 120 fps, and even up to 10K. The RTX 3050 is not just about high-resolution gaming. Computationally intensive programs can utilize the GPU's 2304 cores to accelerate tasks using CUDA and other APIs.

For cooling, MSI implemented dual fans. This graphics card also features a low-profile design. With a TGP of 70 watts, the RTX 3050 is powered exclusively by the PCIe slot, removing the need for additional power connectors.

NVIDIA Ampere Architecture
The NVIDIA Ampere architecture can deliver twice the FP32 throughput of the previous generation. Its 2nd Gen RT cores provide enhanced ray tracing and shading while its 3rd Gen Tensor Cores can run AI-powered technologies efficiently.
Real-Time Ray Tracing
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX platform enables real-time ray tracing of objects and environments with physically accurate shadows, reflections, refractions, and global illumination.
DLSS
NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is AI rendering that boosts frame rates while still providing optimal image quality using the dedicated AI processing Tensor Cores on the GeForce RTX platform. This gives you the performance you need to maximize ray tracing settings and resolutions for an immersive visual experience.
HDMI 2.1
The HDMI 2.1 interface provides increased bandwidth, allowing a single cable to output to 8K HDR TVs for ultra-high-resolution gaming.

Exactly what I needed!

I'm not a gamer but I needed a GPU for Adobe Photoshop in processing certain GPU intensive tasks - most notably denoise. Also very helpful in speeding up processing of video creation using Premiere Elements. Very fast delivery from B&H.

Just what I was looking for

I wanted to repurpose a older I7 based workstation to gaming and this graphics card was a good upgrade since I had a limited amount of power and space available. MSI seem to always make quality products and B & H did their part just fine.
