Palit GeForce RTX 3050 KalmX 6GB (NE63050018JE-1070H)

Not quite an ordinary entry-level compact video accelerator, which uses for cooling not the most powerful, but at the same time completely silent KalmX cooling system. Unlike most similar modifications of the RTX 3050 with a single or dual fan, this model uses large aluminum radiators and heat pipes to dissipate heat. This approach allows you to maintain temperatures within acceptable values even under significant load, ensuring 100% silent operation, which is especially important for multimedia PCs and home theaters.

However, so that the chip does not have to constantly operate at maximum power, the manufacturer recommends using additional fans inside the case. The dimensions of this baby are very modest: 166 mm in length, 2 slots in width. The declared power consumption is a modest 70 W, so the simplest and most affordable 300 W power supply will be enough to power the entire system. Otherwise, this is a familiar entry-level video card from the NVIDIA Ampere generation, which is most suitable for not too demanding online games a la Aphex Legends and Helldivers 2 or for AAA blockbusters in 1080p resolution and modest graphics settings. It is equipped with a GA106 graphics chip with 8 GB of GDDR6 video memory and supports most of the latest NVIDIA technologies, including ray tracing and the DLSS 2 upscaler, which can be useful to slightly increase the average FPS in particularly demanding games.
