Review: MSI RTX 3050 Gaming X 8G
Slightly delayed due to shipment issues, we analyze the gaming X 8G model GeForce RTX 3050 from MSI. The card performs well in its intended Full HD resolution, brings raytracing and DLSS to the table, and all that in MIS renowned Twinfrozr cooling design. And you know that means sheer silence.

Happy to see GTX 1080 performance at 66% of the power draw! If they can get that same performance without the need for PCIe power connector (75w or less), it will be good times.

Hilbert, first, thanks for all your work.
Second.
What would it take for a video card or CPU product to NOT get a Recommended seal of approval?
I mean... we're now in deep meme territory with these prices. We are in 2022. My 1070ti, bought also during a crypto boom in late 2017, was like 500 Euro or something. This card is barely faster and the prices will likely end up similar in Europe.
Isn't it the duty of the press to penalize corporate greed?
Dude, this is a xx50 card with no ti attached to it's name!....the fact that is faster than your 1070ti is awesome no?
But yeah, I get what you're saying about pricing.

First time ill disagree with Hilbert in terms of it being a "Guru3D recommended" card, i understand its difficult to review a product on an RRP when the RRP is nowhere near reality, however i dont think this should be "Guru3D Recommended". Maybe it needs a new logo/category, Bronze Icon with "Guru3D Acceptable - MRRP based"?.
I consider the card junk in terms of price/performance of what we had pre 2020, recommendations should be based on reality and no the current insane scenario.

We were supposed to get cards like the 970 at 300$ that matched a 780ti at 600 just 2 yrs later or something.
Instead we get cards that match something released 4.6 yrs ago at the same damn price, which was ALREADY high back then, and people instead of tearing these corporate entities down are lapping it all up and even finding the corpos all sorts of attenuating circumstances as if they are the business of their dad.
Has to stop. Large corporations and consumers are typically engaged in an adversarial relation, ones seeking increased profits, other lower prices.
Consumers must fight for THEIR interests first and above all else. It's insanely low IQ not to.
