Specifications for NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3050 6 GB GPU leaked midway through the month—fueling further speculation about cutdown Ampere cards hitting retail outlets within the first quarter of 2024. The super budget-friendly alternative to existing GeForce RTX 3050 8 GB graphics card models is tipped to be weakened in many areas (not just a reduction in memory capacity)—according to the last set of leaks: "performance could lag behind the (two years old) RTX 3050 8 GB SKU by up to 25%, making it weaker competition even for AMD's budget Radeon RX 6500 XT."
ComputerBase.de has uncovered an interesting E-Tec shop listing—now removed thanks to global news coverage—MSI is likely preparing a 6 GB variant of its RTX 3050 VENTUS 2X OC design. A screenshot of the Austrian e-tailer's listing has been preserved and circulated—leaked pricing was €245.15, while the model's manufacturer code is V812-015R. A Google search of the latter generates a number of hits—we see information that aligns with TPU's database entry. Specification sheets probably originate from distributors, so are subject to change closer to launch time. VideoCardz points out that a 130 W TDP has appeared online, although some older leaks indicate that the MSI part is targeting NVIDIA's alleged reference figure of 70 W.
