Colorful’s RTX 3050 entry is stylish and can run modern games with ease, but its overclocking abilities are almost unnecessary for its price point.
The RTX GPU market is still a problematic one with demand far surpassing supply, leading to staggering prices. In a hope to alleviate this – and make RTX cards more accessible to budget gamers – the RTX 3050 was launched. We’ve looked at the card previously and found that it’s a great option for gamers who want all the advantages that come with Nvidia’s RTX cards, but on a much more affordable budget. Colorful’s iGame GeForce RTX 3050 card is one to consider if you’re looking for a stylish GPU that delivers worthwhile performance. It’s on par with other RTX 3050 cards we’ve reviewed before and has the added advantage of simple overclocking to squeeze a few extra frames. However, its higher price tag may not necessarily justify this overclocking feature, as the RTX 3050 chip isn’t really geared towards overclocking enthusiasts. Price point aside, the iGame GeForce RTX 3050 is one of the best-looking RTX 3050 cards we’ve seen yet and will be a great fit if you want a cheaper GPU that still looks great. It’s able to crank out enough performance for smooth 1080p gaming, while staying cool and quiet in most PC builds. The iGame GeForce RTX 3050 is available now, priced at $409.
