The ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 3050 V2 OC Edition 8GB GDDR6 is a high-performance GPU engineered for gamers and creators who need heavyweight graphics power without occupying excessive space in their chassis. Built on the NVIDIA Ampere architecture, it features 2nd Generation RT Cores for advanced ray-tracing and 3rd Generation Tensor Cores that leverage DLSS to significantly boost game performance and AI capabilities.
Designed for maximum compatibility, the card utilizes a 2-slot form factor and measures just 200mm in length, making it an ideal choice for compact PC builds. Cooling is handled by two powerful Axial-tech fans with a smaller hub and barrier ring, which increases downward air pressure to keep the GPU cool during intense sessions. For those performing light tasks, 0dB Technology halts the fans entirely when temperatures drop below 50 degrees, ensuring a silent computing environment.
Performance is further enhanced by the OC Edition's factory overclock, reaching a boost clock of 1852 MHz. With 2560 CUDA cores and 8GB of high-speed GDDR6 memory, this card efficiently handles parallel processing and high-quality textures. The inclusion of PCIe 4.0 support ensures high-speed data transfer and reduced latency between the GPU and the motherboard.
Connectivity is versatile, featuring a native HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a, and DVI-D port, allowing for multi-display setups with a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320. Users can further fine-tune their experience using ASUS GPU Tweak III, which provides intuitive controls for core clocks, memory frequency, and real-time system monitoring.
