RTX? so they can do RT... with so few spec i don't know if it is a good idea (even more with what it bring on high end wich is a bit... not what i was expecting lol).

Dont only RTX cards use DLSS? As long as it can do DLSS its good enough. I dont think anyone would buy these for the RT.

I believe the dlss only needs the tensor cores for dlss the rt core only do raytracing. I think rt on this card is a waste of silicon but they could have kept the tensor cores for dlss. I think this would have made much more sense to also keep costs down.

Agreed , but might be a thing that is more costly to redesign a chip tape it out ect z than take problematic 3060 chips cut em down and make em 3050 and 3050ti . Not sure just speculating here.

My 4 year old rx580 does 5k in timespy like 3050non ti these are nothing impressive. Dlss can be usefull here tho.

I have a 2070 mobile (not Max Q) in my ROG laptop, ive never played any RTX games on it though, only Tropico, COH2 and some ARMA3 testing and i think they are all CPU limited anyways.

Something is off about the bandwidth specs in this article my 1660ti with 192bit bus gets 288gb but these with 128bit only get 88gb either thats the wrong rating or its on a 64bit for the memory my guess its actually 192gb bandwidth on 128bit

Why RTX if they dont have Raytraicing cores neither tensor cores?

No, RT cores are always useful, even on a lower spec machine. RT cores accelerate BVH traversal and intersections test. The industry will move forward to RT, so having no RT acceleration will limit the performance of any card in the future heavily, as without RT hardware, BVH intersections/traversal is done on the shader cores which are not suited for that task. By the way, RT also has many use-cases, RT does not necessarily have to be heavy and especially with DLSS, RT on this card is more than possible. This is also why the Series S has RT acceleration, despite the weaker hardware. For future, true next gen games it is important. Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition demonstrates where the industry is heading. An RTX 3050 should be a lot more capable than a Series S, thanks to DLSS and better RT acceleration.

Dude, it uses half the power or less and its for laptops. It's also low-end. So you're dismissing these cards by comparing a card that was the best AMD had to offer vs a modern day low-end laptop card?

Just wanted to point out that these are offering 4year old desktop gpu performance. Also being a first rtx x050 card it will end up in many "gaming" laptops this year.

don't bother,this guy only comes on nvidia threads to troll his 230w card desktop does the same as nvidia's 80w entry level laptop card that also offers dlss. guess which one he thinks is unimpressive. what are you gonna suggest to someone that wants a portable computer with enough gpu power to run a new-ish game,get a rx580 ?

Still dubitative as i have seen RT with a RTX 3090 and i was very upset of what it bring, it's a "plus" indeed compared to the previous one that have RT only to be nice on the packaging, but it still lack (lot of) power... So with a so low laptop GPU... i really don't know. I will look at it when he will be out.
