    great graphics card, looks nice in my computer and works very well. it was pretty easy to set up too. it wasn't too big and it doesn't take too much space, so it doesn't obstruct any other components or wires. (in pictures, quarters are for reference)

    Had an old IBuyPower pc that needed an upgrade. Went from chugging on half life 2 to running 600 troop battles in bannerlord. Got it for a great deal too

    I like this card so far. I especially like the Velocity-X software that controls fan speeds, LED lighting, and overclocking settings. I am impressed. It turned out to be better than I expected. Yes I would recommend this GPU.

    I don’t know a lot about computers hardware, but I run AutoCAD and a bunch of 3D programs. I also edit videos for YouTube on my computer and my old graphics card was barely making the cut. Best Buy did the install in the store, connected it to their monitor, and made sure it worked before I walked out of there. It’s been a year since then and I have not had a single issue out of it!

    I bought this PNY GeForce RTX 3050 from Best Buy to replace my aging Nivida GT650 at the recommendation of the Geek Squad Tech. He said it would give me the boost in video performance I needed at a reasonable price. Boy was he right! The one game I have been playing was running at times as low as 13 FPS with all settings set to their lowest setting!!! I'm now at 60FPS with everything cranked up to near max! I highly recommend this video card if you're on a budget and want a reliable, stabile graphics card, this one should fit the bill nicely!

    When I purchase this card for my PC it was in great shape the box came in great shape the component wasn't broken it ran perfectly I wasn't easy setup it's a plug-in play you can set it up anyway that you needed for your streaming or for gaming or for videos whatever you need it for but it's one of the best graphics cards that I purchase for a great price I got for $297.

    Great card for the price. I do an average amount of gaming and photo editing, this card isn't pushing boundaries, but it gets the job done. If you need a card that will do a great job, but won't have you take out a second mortgage, this is the one

    Really great gpu for the money. Runs diablo 4 on the highest settings. Can dip down in fps here and there. Runs wow on ultra. Final Fantasy 15. Yakuza. I have yet to find a game it can't run. Forget internet epeen measuring and just save your money and buy this card, and with the money you saved, add a few titles to your Steam library.
