NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 6GB Laptop GPU

6 GB GDDR6 · 96-bit · 2,560 cores

A refresh of the RTX 3050 Laptop GPU that enables the full 20-SM GA107 configuration with 2,560 CUDA cores and raises memory to 6 GB, on a narrower 96-bit bus for 144 GB/s. It sits between the original 4 GB RTX 3050 and the RTX 3050 Ti in performance and was widely used in budget gaming laptops from 2023. Clocks depend on the laptop maker's power setting (35-80 W).
