RTX 3050 Desktop vs GTX 1080 Desktop Gaming Benchmark | Test in 12 Games | @ 1080P Built on the 8 nm process, and based on the GA106 graphics processor, in its GA106-150-KA-A1 variant, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. This ensures that all modern games will run on GeForce RTX 3050 8 GB. Additionally, the DirectX 12 Ultimate capability guarantees support for hardware-raytracing, variable-rate shading and more, in upcoming video games. The GA106 graphics processor is an average sized chip with a die area of 276 mm² and 12,000 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked GeForce RTX 3060, which uses the same GPU but has all 3584 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce RTX 3050 8 GB to reach the product’s target shader count. It features 2560 shading units, 80 texture mapping units, and 48 ROPs. Also included are 80 tensor cores which help improve the speed of machine learning applications. The card also has 20 raytracing acceleration cores. NVIDIA has paired 8 GB GDDR6 mem
