NVIDIA may be working on a new variant of its entry-level RTX 3050 graphics card., based on a new GPU SKU, the GA107.
We expected NVIDIA would eventually provide RTX 3050 boards based on the smaller "GA107" processor, and they did. According to Igor's Lab, RTX 3050 cards based on GA107 have a board power of 115 W, around 11% less than GA106 cards (130 W). Technically, the two cards are identical. 2560 CUDA cores, 20 streaming multiprocessors, 80 TENSOR cores, and 20 RT cores, with a 128-bit wide GDDR6 memory interface providing 8 GB of memory at 14 Gbps (224 GB/s bandwidth). In theory, any cooling solution intended for the launch-day RTX 3050 should function flawlessly with GA107-based cards.
