6 GB GDDR6 graphics card

This GIGABYTE WINDFORCE card is built around the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GPU and carries 6 GB of GDDR6 memory. It targets gamers and creators who need a modern PCIe 4.0 GPU for 1080p workloads. The board includes 2304 CUDA cores and a 1477 MHz core clock. Output options cover two HDMI 2.1 and two DisplayPort 1.4a connectors.

PCI Express 4.0 x8 interface

The card plugs into a PCI Express 4.0 x8 slot and is electrically limited to eight lanes. On a PCIe 3.0 platform the link drops to 3.0 speeds, which can reduce peak throughput in bandwidth-heavy tasks. The 96-bit memory bus and 14000 MHz effective memory clock set the practical ceiling for texture and frame-buffer bandwidth. DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 support define the feature baseline.

2304 CUDA cores at 1477 MHz

The GPU ships with 2304 CUDA cores running at a 1477 MHz core clock, the single figure that determines raw shader throughput for this model. That core count and clock combination fixes the card's position in the RTX 3050 performance tier. Cooling is handled by a dual-fan WINDFORCE design with alternate spinning and 3D active fan logic. Maximum digital resolution reaches 7680 x 4320 across four displays.
