Technical specifications of the OEM version of the RTX 3050 graphics card

The RTX 3050 graphics card is currently considered to be the cheapest product of the Nvidia company, which has relatively lower technical specifications compared to its older brothers. Also, information has recently been published that shows that the green team has prepared a special OEM version of this card for ready-made case makers. Stay with Lion Tech.

The normal version of this card is available in two versions based on GA106 and GA107 graphics processors. Both models share the same basic specs, including 2056 CUDA cores and 80 TMUs, along with 8GB of GDDR6 RAM. The VRAM of this card supports a 128-bit interface bus with a speed of 14 Gbps, which will allow it to achieve a bandwidth of 224 Gbps.

Technical specifications of the OEM version of the RTX 3050 graphics card

Now, an OEM-specific version of the RTX 3050 graphics card has surfaced in China, using a stripped-down GA106 GPU. The number of cores of this card is 2304, which is less compared to the current model. The base frequency is 1.51 GHz (vs. 1.55 GHz) and the boost frequency is 1.76 GHz (vs. 1.78 GHz) reduced, however the memory specifications remain intact.

The required power of this model is supplied through an 8-pin connector. Based on the leaked specifications, the performance of the OEM version of the RTX 3050 graphics card is expected to be between 5 and 10 percent lower than the current model. Also, this card is only used in ready-made computers by manufacturers, and its target market is Asian countries.

The use of the same naming and the lack of accurate differentiation between these two versions by Nvidia will certainly mislead users. This could be a new strategy from the green team to sell low-quality GA106 dies to buyers in the form of RTX 3050. Therefore, before buying the ready-made system or the said graphics card, it is better to check its general specifications.
