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.

yeah,but at the same time,you probably have 6700xt's at 1000 and 6800 at 1500 there

3050 at 400eur is a desperate option,but about the only one in this price range.If you want a better card prepare for +600eur

There is a rx6600 for 40-50$ more than 3050 or sometimes even similar priced.

PC gaming has never been free....Heck have you seen the prices of the new Xbox One X ?

Yeah, it has never been free, but it will be dead if these prices persist.

We'll all be rocking 3090s and 6900xt cards when the big gpu dump of 2022 happens, soon as etherium mining ends in the summer or thereabouts folks, just be ready for it.
Prices are slowly coming down in anticipation of this.
Few years back people were getting three pallets of 1070s to their friends warehouse, made big-time over the years, however now there's no decent immediate future for it,
at least to make big in little time.
I'll keep up as it's a hobby now, something to enjoy, i spent every bit i made.
