GIGABYTE GV-N3050GAMING OC-8GD GeForce RTX 3050 8GB graphics card

Ready for 1080p gaming and creative work

The GIGABYTE GV-N3050GAMING OC-8GD is a GeForce RTX 3050 graphics card built on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture. It delivers 2560 CUDA cores and 8GB of GDDR6 memory across a 128-bit interface for smooth 1080p performance. The WINDFORCE 3X cooling system uses alternate spinning fans and a protective back plate to manage the 130W thermal design power. RGB Fusion 2.0 lighting adds visual customisation for PC builders.

Verify power, space and display connections

Your power supply must provide at least 450W and include an available 8-pin PCIe power connector for this card. The dual-slot design measures 282 mm in length, so confirm your case offers enough clearance before ordering. The PCI Express 4.0 interface works best on a compatible motherboard slot, though it remains backward compatible. Two HDMI 2.1 ports and two DisplayPort 1.4a outputs support up to four displays at a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320.

Fits mid-tower builds with standard cooling

This ATX form factor card occupies two expansion slots and relies on case airflow to exhaust heat from the WINDFORCE 3X cooler. The 8GB GDDR6 frame buffer frees system memory for other tasks during gaming or content creation. DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 support ensure compatibility with modern APIs and creative applications. A 450W power supply and a single 8-pin connector are the only extra components required for installation.
