GeForce RTX™ 3050 VENTUS 2X 8G OC

GeForce RTX™ 3050 VENTUS 2X 8G OC Price in Pakistan

Nowadays, it’s a bit hard to call almost any GPU a budget one because the video card prices aren’t yet normalized at 100%. Still, the cost of most GeForce RTX 3050 graphics cards is on the low side by today’s standards. The RTX 3050 looks like it’s meant for 1080p gaming – it comes with an 8GB memory which is just fine even for 1440p gaming. For this review, we will test the MSI RTX 3050 VENTUS 2X 8G OC. As you may know, the Ventus lineup is a step-down compared to other MSI’s custom GPU designs like the Gaming or Trio.

For a not-so-power-hungry chip like the GA106, a two-fan cooler design seems more than enough for adequate cooling. The GPU is limited to PCIe 4.0 x8 but this kind of bus interface speed is fine given the raw power of the GA106. The I/O of the video card is what you’d expect from GPU released in 2022 – three Display Ports 1.4a and an HDMI 2.1. At least on paper, this graphics card should be powerful enough for 1080p gaming with greatly bumped visuals but we’ll see if this GPU is okay for playing games on 1440p and even on 4K with some compromises when it comes to visual quality.
