GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3050 WINDFORCE OC V2 6G Graphics Card – Factory Overclocked 6GB GDDR6 96-bit Compact GPU Equipped with Dual 90mm Alternate Spinning Fans and Protection Backplate

Building or upgrading a budget gaming PC, home theater system, or compact editing rig with basic integrated graphics limits your capability to experience modern, smooth frame rates and sharp visual details. Standard, uncooled GPUs suffer from thermal throttling under heavy gaming loads, leading to frustrating stutters and game crashes. The GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 3050 WINDFORCE OC V2 6G Graphics Card is an engineered, compact graphical solution built to deliver steady 1080p gaming performance and smooth multimedia creation. Powered by NVIDIA's efficient Ampere architecture and loaded with a factory-overclocked core, this low-profile 6GB card allows PC builders and esports enthusiasts to enjoy advanced ray tracing and AI-accelerated frame rates while saving valuable chassis space.

The remarkable cooling efficiency and stable performance of this graphics card stem from its signature WINDFORCE dual-fan cooling system and alternate spinning blade layout. GIGABYTE utilizes two 90mm uniquely bladed fans that turn in opposite directions to optimize airflow pressure and minimize turbulent dead zones, quickly pulling heat away from the dense internal heatsink array. Designed with built-in 3D Active Fan technology, the card switches to a completely silent, passive cooling mode during light browsing or idle states, eliminating background fan buzz. Outfitted with a full-wrap protective backplate to prevent PCB bending, along with a modern digital display array supporting up to three monitors, the RTX 3050 WINDFORCE OC V2 packs high-efficiency modern gaming power into a highly reliable, space-friendly footprint.

Key Features

• NVIDIA Ampere Architecture – Features dedicated 2nd Gen Ray Tracing Cores and 3rd Gen Tensor Cores to unlock cinematic real-time lighting effects and clean AI graphics scaling.

• WINDFORCE Alternate Spinning Cooling – Outfitted with dual 90mm bladed fans that rotate in opposite directions to reduce turbulence and maximize cooling airflow pressure.

• Factory Overclocked Core Profile – Precision-tuned out of the box to run at higher clock speeds, giving you improved frame rates right from the first boot.

• Silent 3D Active Fan Control – The smart fan controller shuts the fans down completely during low-load operations, providing zero-noise operation while you stream or work.

• Rigid Protective Backplate Shield – A durable structural backing panel reinforces the card's frame to prevent sagging and safeguard delicate internal circuits.

• Comprehensive Multi-Display Array – Equipped with DisplayPort, HDMI, and Dual-Link DVI-D outputs to easily manage dual or triple monitor workstation configurations.
