NVIDIA has just confirmed the RTX 5050 for desktop PCs, which joins the already available laptop version. This model has no direct predecessor in the RTX 40 range.
The RTX 5050 features 2,560 CUDA cores, 8 GB GDDR6 memory and a GPU clocked at 2.31 GHz base and 2.57 GHz boost, and supports Blackwell technologies such as DLSS 4 and ray tracing.
The card offers four video outputs, a TDP of 130W and requires an 8-pin connector. It is expected to re-use the very same RTX 5060 cooling systems. Pricing is set at $249, with availability scheduled for the second half of July.
