If rumors surrounding NVIDIA’s future releases were a drinking game, we’d all be sloshed by now. The latest comes from well-known leaker kopite7kimi. It is about a possible NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050. To date, this would be the lowest entry-level card for the GeForce RTX Ampere lineup.

Breaking this down, we have a GA107 GPU with a 90 W TGP and 2,304 CUDA Cores (twice as many as the GTX 1650). No memory specs have been announced, but it is believed to have 4 GB on a 128-bit bus. Let’s take a look at the growing list of rumored cards and specs, compiled from our stories and information from VideoCardz.

As a child of the 70’s I was part of the many who became enthralled by the video arcade invasion of the 1980’s. Saving money from various odd jobs I purchased my first computer from a friend of my dad, a used Atari 400, around 1982. Eventually it would end up being a lifelong passion of upgrading and modifying equipment that, of course, led into a career in IT support.
