Asus GeForce RTX 3050 Phoenix V2 8GB

A compact entry-level graphics card with a reduced cooling system, a single active fan, and moderate power consumption. It is part of the Asus Phoenix 2023 lineup, aimed at relatively small and inexpensive builds, whose owners do not expect a fantastic level of performance from their PC. It is ideal for those who want to enjoy modern games at 1080p resolution with acceptable graphics settings, including medium and high presets.

Thanks to DLSS 2 upscaling support, the graphics card can significantly boost the average frame rate without much compromise on image quality. The graphics chip GA106, with 2560 stream processors and the ability to automatically overclock to 1807 MHz, serves as the brain of the graphics card. Unlike many RTX 3050 modifications, the Asus GeForce RTX 3050 Phoenix V2 8GB version is equipped with 8GB of GDDR6 video memory instead of 6GB. The use of the Ampere microarchitecture with second-generation RT cores and third-generation tensor cores provides improved performance in ray-traced games and accelerates AI-based tasks compared to previous generations of NVIDIA graphics cards.
