a few weeks ago NVIDIA just launched RTX 3050 at CES 2022, is not expected to go on sale until the end of January, but foreign netizens broke the news earlier that a store has quietly put this card on the Amazon online shopping platform in Japan, and the exaggeration is that the price is very different from the MSRP recommended selling price, which has increased by more than 50%. In addition to this card, the price of the RTX 3090 Ti that was unveiled at the same time was also revealed by foreign media, and there is a huge difference between the lowest and the highest.
Foreign online shopping platform RTX 3050 has increased in price by 56%
One person earlier momomo_us A user shared on Twitter that heJapanese Amazon websiteFound the NVIDIA RTX 3050 product page (now removed). This card is launched by the Japanese computer brand Xuanren. The recommended price is 50,138 yen, about 439 US dollars / 12,100 NT dollars. If you only look at NT$12,000, I think many people would think it is very cheap. After all, everything else costs more than NT$20,000. However, NVIDIA’s official recommended selling price for this card is US$249, which means that Amazon’s RTX 3050 is 56% more expensive. The price has increased even before it goes on sale. This is really amazing:
Of course, the recommended selling price of RTX 3050 is different in each country, and Japan is no exception. However, no matter how expensive it is, it cannot be so much higher than 249 US dollars, so this is definitely a speculation price. This also means that it is basically difficult to buy this card at the original price. For those who want to save money, it is more practical to consider the assembly price.
RTX 3050 uses the GA106 core, with 2,560 CUDA cores, 80 Tensor Cores, and 20 RT Cores. Equipped with 128-bit GDDR6 memory, the base clock is 1550MHz, which can reach 1780MHz after overclocking. The power consumption of the whole card is 130W. It is expected to be officially launched on January 27. In addition, it was reported in China a few days ago that the RTX 3050 will increase production, more than the RTX 3060 and RTX 3060 Ti, so you can still look forward to this card, which may be better than others.
The RTX 3090 Ti, which was also unveiled at CES 2022, although NVIDIA did not announce the price and other details at the time, it has also appeared in Germany and Switzerland recently. According to reports from foreign media VIDEOCARDZ, they have obtained quotes from local stores, but the prices for the same card are different. The price of MSI RTX 3090 Ti SUPRIM

Unlike the RTX 3050, the latest news is that the RTX 3090 Ti has encountered some manufacturing problems and has temporarily stopped production, so it may take a while to wait.
