Nvidia announces GeForce RTX 5050 for $249 | Infinium-tech

NVIDIA today announced the smallest member of the RTX 50-series, Geforce RTX 5050. It will start at $ 249 and will be available in the second half of July.

The RTX 5050 has a new GB207 dye based on the Blackwell architecture with the 2560 CUDA core, two -thirds of the RTX 5060 launched in April. It also includes 5th generation tensor core and other 50-series cards like 4th generation RT core. This enables it to support features such as DLSS4 with multi-frame generation and upcoming reflex 2.

The RTX 5050 GPU is seen on the 2.31GHz base and increases to 2.57GHz. You get 128-bit 8GB GDDR6 memory, making it the only 50-series card ever without GDDR7. Other features include 3x display 2.1B and 1x HDMI 2.1B connectivity, 1x 9th generation Nvenc Encoder and 6th generation NVDEC decoder. The card runs on 130W power and can take either a single 8-pin connector or 300W or more PCIE GEN 5 cable.

Most of the futile graphs showing relative to the RTX 5050 in comparison to the old NVidia cards in NVIDIA makes it difficult to make, but the company claims that the new card is 60% faster than the RTX 3050 compared to the RTX 3050 that came out three years ago. The card also seems to be an average in the RTX 4060 performance ballpark two years ago.

RTX 5050 should be on shelves this time next month. There is no founding version model from NVIDIA, but the card will be available from all major board partners, including asus, colorful, genweed, galaxy, gigabyte, inno3D, MSI, palit, pny and zotac.

There is also a mobile version of RTX 5050, which is starting from $ 999 in the laptop today.
