Rumor mill: These days it is difficult to get excited via a pictures card with just six gigabytes of VRAM, however it seems groups like Nvidia will make one if it makes modern technology models appear like a better deal. The entry-level RTX 3050 changed into never a outstanding product initially however the grapevine says it will be modified to lessen its enchantment compared to the RTX 4060.
The GPU marketplace today is in a ways higher form than the hot mess seen in the course of the scalping and mining storms in recent years, but we've yet to see the glad days of distinctly less costly gaming where you can construct a decent rig with all-new components for a touch over the charge of an Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5 console.
When looking on the large photo, it seems we are headed right into a period of stagnation within the GPU area. AMD appears uninterested in making high-quit GPUs based totally on the subsequent-gen RDNA 4 architecture and Intel's first-gen Arc hardware is often a toy for fanatics to check out what XeSS upscaling looks like while run at the XMX AI engine.
Meanwhile, Nvidia dominates the laptop GPU market and is busy making as many AI accelerators as it could because the ones are the largest contributors to its backside line. The rumored RTX 40 Super lineup that's anticipated to launch next year might not alternate the cutting-edge pricing model as the new cards will in all likelihood replace current mid- to excessive-give up RTX forty series cards but include similar charge tags.
At the lower quit, we already recognise that Nvidia desires retailers to sell RTX 3060 GPUs into at the least the primary half of 2024 due to the fact those fashions are made on Samsung's less in-call for 8nm node and the company probable has a surplus of GA106 dies. Additionally, a record (via Videocardz) shows Team Green is trying to make the RTX 4060 more appealing to game enthusiasts by way of discontinuing the RTX 3050 8 GB version.
The report appears to corroborate earlier rumors of a brand new access-degree RTX 3050 with a purpose to supposedly be more inexpensive however come with simply six gigabytes of GDDR6 reminiscence. The new report suggests Nvidia is concerned about the RTX 3050 impacting RTX 4060 income, so it'll step by step section out the RTX 3050 8GB as present supplies are depleted.
There's been no signal of a computing device RTX 4050 card, and if the RTX 3050 6GB ever materialized there could hardly be a motive for the former to exist. Still, a pics card with 6 gigabytes of VRAM in this point in time is difficult to endorse when the RX 6600 with 8 gigabytes of VRAM will regularly outperform it for the same charge. Even if this new RTX 3050 6GB sees the light of day at a barely decrease rate, it might nonetheless be a terrible deal in contrast to the AMD part.
The document claims Nvidia will introduce the brand new RTX 3050 6GB model in January, so we're going to should be patient.
