The NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti 4GB will be a reality in notebooks: ASUS confirms it


The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti is one of the most anticipated graphics in the notebook market, hungry for a refresh in the mid and low ranges. After manufacturers like Lenovo, now ASUS joins the brands that confirm the existence of this graphics card by listing it in their new laptop models.

ASUS confirms in its TUF Dash F15 (2021) that there will be a 4GB RTX 3050 Ti

The ASUS TUF Dash F15 (2021 version) web page is where we find this information, where before a supposed “GN20-P0” graphic was indicated, but now an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti is clearly indicated.

The most important detail that they reveal to us is its memory, 4GB GDDR6, a figure appropriate to the possibilities of the GPU, where fortunately this low-end model will not have inferior memory technologies such as GDDR5. The acronym RTX also makes it clear that it will have RT Cores for ray tracing and Tensor Cores that will allow us to use DLSS. It will be necessary to see in what quantity and how they behave since it is likely that in very low ranges they will hardly be usable.

If we look for more details about the RTX 3050 Ti, we have a previous leak from Acer in which precisely this codename "GN20-P0" corresponding to the RTX 3050 Ti appears, indicating a TGP of only 60W, this figure is quite low and it denotes great energy efficiency, but surely also relatively low performance.

Keep in mind that the minimum TGP of the RTX 3060 for laptops is 60W too, and it can go up to 115W. So it is possible that something similar happens for the 3050 Ti, with much more power depending on the laptop model, since a single TGP of 60W would be considerably low.

According to Videocardz, the RTX 3050 Ti is expected to have a GA107 graphics chip, silicon trimmed from the GA106 in the RTX 3060. We do not know other important details such as the number of CUDA cores, or how many RT or Tensor Cores it carries, nor their clock frequencies.

There is still some time left to know if this graphic is launched in a completely official way, but of course, the amount of already official information that circulates pointing to exactly the same thing leads us to think that this graphic will indeed be launched. Another story will be the desktop models, where it is not clear if the RTX 3050 Ti will be announced, or they will jump directly to a supposed RTX 3050.

Do you think the RTX 3050 Ti will offer a decent performance?
