In terms of raw performance, the RTX 3050 evidently delivers on its promise of budget performance for 1080p gaming. In tandem with Nvidia's DLSS AI rendering technology, this card certainly has the potential to deliver more than enough horsepower to run modern games at 60 FPS. Especially at a starting MSRP of $249, the potential value proposition from a cheap Nvidia card capable of this performance is excellent. Compared to the next available Nvidia GPU, the RTX 3050 operates at about a 40% difference in power between it and the RTX 3060. Especially if reports of higher supply of the RTX 3050 are true, Nvidia's budget card could be very popular.
