Review: MSI RTX 3050 Gaming X 8G

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.

Read the review here.

Almost every 1080ti scores around 9.8k or more graphic score in 3DMark Time Spy (my Asus scores 10200 graphic score out the box)
Why you have 95xx in your charts?

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?

I believe the last time a reviewer was critical of NV they ended up getting blacklisted. Has any reviewer that gets review samples given these the scathing reviews they deserve?

His recommendations have always been based only on quality and the performance level of the product (relative to others in its performance tier). I do agree that he should factor in price though.
