Our new GeForce RTX 5050 desktop graphics cards and GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop GPUs bring NVIDIA Blackwell RTX to even more gamers this Summer, starting at great new price points of $249 and $999, respectively.
Step up to faster and more responsive gameplay in esports titles like Counter-Strike 2, Marvel Rivals, and Apex Legends with NVIDIA Reflex, now in over 150 games, including 9 of the top 10 competitive shooters. And leverage our latest-generation architecture for an immersive ray-traced experience with high settings in single-player games such as Cyberpunk 2077 and Avowed, thanks to DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation. Over 800 games and apps are accelerated by GeForce RTX-powered technologies, including over 125 with DLSS Multi Frame Generation.
x50-class GeForce GPUs are among the most popular in the world, second only to the x60-class on Steam. Their price point and power profile are especially popular:
- For those stepping up to RTX for the first time
- For anyone upgrading an older x50-class system
- With students balancing schoolwork and play
- For small power-efficient home theater PCs with full support for all the latest codecs
As games gain ever-increasing levels of detail, feature larger open worlds, and innovate with new gameplay, the GPU horsepower required to render them increases, necessitating an upgrade to continue playing at smooth frame rates. Tens of millions of gamers on older Pascal, Turing, or Ampere-based GPUs can benefit from a huge increase in performance and capabilities in today’s modern games with RTX 5050.
Our next GeForce Game Ready Driver, coming early July, includes support for all GeForce RTX 5050 GPUs – desktop and laptop. Laptops ship with an initial factory pre-installed driver.
Keep an eye out for GeForce RTX 5050 graphics cards arriving in the second-half of July.
Starting in the second half of July, GeForce RTX 5050 graphics cards will arrive on store shelves. Starting at $249, stock-clocked and factory-overclocked models will be available from top add-in card providers such as ASUS, Colorful, Gainward, Galaxy, GIGABYTE, INNO3D, MSI, Palit, PNY, and ZOTAC. Additionally, they’ll be available in pre-built desktops from system builders and integrators.
Each GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card is powered by a single PCIe 8-pin cable, drawing a maximum of 130 Watts at stock speeds, making it great for systems with power supplies delivering as little as 550 Watts. GeForce RTX 5050 graphics cards have a minimum Base Clock speed of 2.31GHz, and are equipped with 2,560 NVIDIA Blackwell CUDA Cores, our 5th Generation AI Tensor Cores, 4th Generation Ray Tracing Cores, a 9th Generation NVIDIA Encoder (NVENC), 6th Generation NVIDIA Decoder (NVDEC), and 8GB of GDDR6 video memory on a 128-bit memory bus.
In the modern games shown below, GeForce RTX 5050 graphics cards are 60% faster on average in raster, and 4X faster in games with the full suite of DLSS 4 technologies, compared to RTX 3050, our most recent prior x50-class card. The step up to RTX is even greater for gamers on GTX 1650, the fourth most-used GPU on Steam, which lacks support for DLSS or hardware-accelerated ray tracing.
