MSI GeForce RTX 5050 8G VENTUS 2X OC (912-V538-002, G5050-8V2C)

The MSI GeForce RTX 5050 8G VENTUS 2X OC graphics card is built on the NVIDIA GB207 GPU with Blackwell architecture, equipped with 2560 CUDA cores, 80 texture units, and 32 ROPs. The base clock frequency is approximately 2317 MHz, with boost clocks reaching up to 2602 MHz. The video memory consists of 8 GB GDDR6 with a 128-bit bus and an effective speed of 20 Gbps, delivering bandwidth of approximately 320 GB/s. The system connection interface is PCI Express 5.0 x16 (operating in x8 mode). Power delivery uses a single 8-pin connector, with a thermal design power of approximately 130 W and a recommended power supply of at least 550 W. Cooling is managed by a dual-fan TORX Fan 5.0 system mounted on a large heatsink with thermal pipes and a vented backplate. The Zero Frozr feature allows fans to stop at low temperatures, ensuring quiet and efficient operation even under load. The board is reinforced with built-in protection circuits, and power delivery stages use DrMOS chips to enhance efficiency and voltage stability. The card supports Dual BIOS with Performance and Silent modes and comes with a reinforced backplate for structural rigidity. It supports modern NVIDIA technologies including fourth-generation ray tracing RT cores, DLSS 4 AI scaling with Multi-Frame Generation, fifth-generation Tensor cores, and NVIDIA Reflex 2 for minimal latency. Compatible with DirectX 12 Ultimate, OpenGL 4.6, Vulkan 1.4, and OpenCL 3.0 APIs. Display outputs include three DisplayPort 2.1b and one HDMI 2.1b, supporting up to four displays simultaneously with maximum resolution of 7680×4320. The card dimensions are approximately 197 mm in length, 120 mm in height, and two slots (approximately 41 mm) in thickness, with a board weight of approximately 491 g and total weight with packaging of approximately 827 g. The MSI GeForce RTX 5050 8G VENTUS 2X OC is ideally suited for users seeking a compact form factor, quiet operation, and full support for modern technologies in gaming and creative applications.
