Asus Rog Strix GeForce RTX 3050 OC Edition Graphics Card, 8GB GDDR6 128 Bit Memory, 2560 Cuda Cores, 14 Gbps, OpenGL 4.6, 1890 MHz Clock, PCI Express 4.0, GPU Tweak II, HDMI, DP | 90YV0HI1-M0NA00

ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 3050 OC Edition 8GB

ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 3050 OC Edition 8GB GDDR6 buffed-up design with chart-topping thermal performance.

• NVIDIA Ampere Streaming Multiprocessors: The all-new Ampere SM brings 2X the FP32 throughput and improved power efficiency.

• 2nd Generation RT Cores: Experience 2X the throughput of 1st gen RT Cores, plus concurrent RT and shading for a whole new level of ray-tracing performance.

• 3rd Generation Tensor Cores: Get up to 2X the throughput with structural sparsity and advanced AI algorithms such as DLSS. These cores deliver a massive boost in game performance and all-new AI capabilities.

• Axial-tech fan design has been newly tuned with a reversed central fan direction for less turbulence.

• 2.7-slot design expands cooling surface area to make the most of the three powerful Axial-tech fans.

• Super Alloy Power II includes premium alloy chokes, solid polymer capacitors, and an array of high-current power stages.

• GPU Tweak II provides intuitive performance tweaking, thermal controls, and system monitoring.

TAKE FLIGHT

From top to bottom, the ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 3050 has been designed to push performance boundaries. A fresh design and more metal surrounds a grouping of Axial-tech fans that leverage a new rotation scheme. Below the blades, a larger, more impressive heatsink is ready for the most demanding thermal loads. The PCB has some new tricks up its sleeves, and even the backplate has received some performance-boosting changes. For gamers who want to get the most out of the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, the latest addition to the ROG Strix stable delivers in every way.

2.7-SLOT DESIGN

The heat spreader draws heat up into heatpipes that carry it through a fin stack that fills most of the card’s large, 2.7-slot footprint.

IT’S COOLER OUT BACK

Flipping the card around reveals more design improvements. For enhanced heat dissipation, a wide backplate vent and shortened PCB allow hot air to escape towards chassis exhaust fans instead of being recycled back into the cooler. The I/O bracket is made from stainless steel to protect ports and provide a more secure mount. A conveniently placed Dual BIOS switch allows quick selection between “performance” and “quiet” mode for basic customization of the card’s default behavior without software. To top it off, an ROG logo with addressable RGB backlighting adds flair.

GPU TWEAK II

The ASUS GPU Tweak II utility takes graphics card tuning to the next level. It allows you to tweak critical parameters including GPU core clocks, memory frequency, and voltage settings, with the option to monitor everything in real-time through a customizable on-screen display. Advanced fan control is also included along with many more features to help you get the most out of your graphics card.
