The GeForce RTX 3050 6GB is equipped with 2304 CUDA Cores, which is a 10% reduction from the 2560 CUDA Cores found in the 8GB version. However, this core count is consistent with the OEM version of the GeForce RTX 3050, which also features 2304 CUDA Cores and comes with 8GB of memory. In terms of clock speeds, the RTX 3050 6GB is set at 1042/1470MHz, lower than the 1552/1777 MHz of the 8GB variant. Additionally, there is a decrease in memory bandwidth, with the 6GB version offering 168GB/s compared to the original 224GB/s in the 8GB model. The GPU codename for the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB is GA107-325.

With an anticipated retail price of around US$179, the GeForce RTX 3050 6GB is poised to gradually supplant both the GeForce GTX 16 series and the RTX 3050 8GB variant, positioning itself as NVIDIA's entry-level, plug-in-free graphics card option.
