But in China
So far, the youngest video card in the GeForce RTX 40 line is the RTX 4060, and it is not clear whether the RTX 4050 will be released at all. Thus, among Nvidia cards, the RTX 3050 remains the most affordable current model. And now one such card has appeared on the market in an unusual design.
Single-slot low-profile GeForce RTX 3050 without additional power.
The negotiated adapter stands out for its low-profile design. The description on JD.com says that the card is great for industrial equipment, building home servers and eSports. At the same time, it is completely unclear who the manufacturer is.
But from the characteristics it is clear that it is based not on a desktop, but on a mobile GA107 GPU with 2048 CUDA cores. The full desktop RTX 3050 has 2560 CUDA cores.
You can also select a 128-bit memory bus, core frequencies of 1237-1500 MHz and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory. The TDP of this solution is only 65 W, so no additional power is required. In addition, this made it possible to equip the device with a single-slot cooling system.
In China, they ask for about $ 278 for a novelty at the current exchange rate.
rtx 3050 single slot
It is important to note that single-slot RTX 3050 cards typically have lower clock speeds and power limits than their dual-slot counterparts. This is because they need to dissipate heat more efficiently in a smaller space. However, they are still a good option for budget gamers and those who are building small form factor PC builds.
Here are some of the factors to consider when choosing a single-slot RTX 3050 card:
- Price: Single-slot RTX 3050 cards are typically more expensive than dual-slot cards.
- Performance: Single-slot cards typically have lower clock speeds and power limits than dual-slot cards.
- Size: Single-slot cards are typically smaller than dual-slot cards.
- Compatibility: Make sure the single-slot card is compatible with your PC case.
