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

The MSI GeForce RTX 3050 Ventus 2X E OC 6GB is a compact, energy-efficient discrete graphics card built on NVIDIA's Ampere architecture. Designed for mainstream 1080p gaming and light creative workloads, it delivers hardware-accelerated ray tracing via dedicated RT Cores and AI-powered upscaling through NVIDIA DLSS Tensor Cores — both exclusive to the GeForce RTX 30 Series platform. The Ventus 2X E OC cooling solution pairs two custom-curved fans with a large aluminium heatsink, directing airflow efficiently across the PCB to maintain low temperatures under sustained load. MSI's tailored PCB design reinforces power delivery circuitry, supporting the factory overclocked boost clock of 1492 MHz right out of the box. With a rated TDP of just 70 W, this card is unusually frugal — a 300 W system PSU is all that is required, making it compatible with small-form-factor builds and older systems without a PCIe power connector concern. The card connects via PCI Express Gen 4 x16 (operating at x8 electrical) and measures 189 × 109 × 42 mm, weighing 381 g — a compact dual-slot footprint suited to mATX and mini-tower chassis. Display connectivity covers up to three simultaneous outputs: two HDMI 2.1 ports (supporting 4K @ 120 Hz) and one DisplayPort 1.4a, with a digital maximum resolution of 7680 × 4320. G-SYNC compatibility, HDCP support, DirectX 12 Ultimate, and OpenGL 4.6 round out the feature set for gaming, productivity, and media playback. Software support includes MSI Center for real-time monitoring and tuning, and MSI Afterburner for overclocking, OC Scanner, screen display overlays, and in-game video capture via Predator.
