MSI GeForce RTX 3050 Ventus 2X OC 6GB Nvidia Graphic Card

The MSI GeForce RTX 3050 Ventus 2X OC 6GB is a compact, efficient graphics card built on NVIDIA's Ampere architecture, making it a practical entry point into real-time ray tracing and AI-accelerated rendering. Powered by 2304 CUDA Cores, dedicated RT Cores for ray tracing, and Tensor Cores for DLSS, this card handles modern titles at 1080p with a thermal footprint that suits compact system builds. The Ventus 2X cooling solution features two custom-designed fans with a unique blade curve engineered to move more airflow at lower noise levels compared to generic designs. Paired with a large heatsink, this thermal assembly is tailored to keep the GPU operating efficiently even under sustained gaming loads — all within a compact 189 x 109 x 42 mm form factor. Underpinning the cooling is a custom PCB designed to deliver stable power delivery and greater component reliability, providing headroom for the factory overclock. The boost clock is set at 1492 MHz out of the box, with 6GB of GDDR6 memory running at 14 Gbps across a 96-bit memory bus. For display connectivity, the card offers one DisplayPort 1.4a and two HDMI 2.1 outputs, supporting up to three simultaneous displays and resolutions up to 7680 x 4320 (8K). HDMI 2.1 enables 4K at 120 Hz for compatible monitors. G-SYNC compatibility, DirectX 12 Ultimate support, and OpenGL 4.6 round out the feature set for both gaming and creative workloads. With a rated TDP of just 70 W, the card requires no external power connector and is compatible with systems running a 300 W or greater PSU — making it an accessible upgrade for existing pre-built systems. MSI Center software provides real-time monitoring and tuning, while the bundled Afterburner utility includes OC Scanner for automated stable overclock detection, an screen display for live performance metrics, and Predator for in-game video capture.
