This is exactly how we imagine a video card with 8 gigabytes of memory should be, so that it is sufficient for Full HD, but you shouldn't expect ultra-high quality without DLSS or frame generation.

The Asus GeForce RTX 5050 Dual OC we tested impressed us with its quiet operation, compact size, and understated design without any frills. The cooling system does its job well, keeping operating temperatures at an acceptable level, even under prolonged load.

Despite its budget status and relatively small amount of old-style GDR6 video memory, it confidently handled most modern games, including even those traditionally considered difficult for entry-level graphics cards.

The 5050 has proven itself well—if you want something affordable, go for it and play without any problems. Yes, you'll have to enable DLSS somewhere, reduce the graphics settings somewhere else, but the video card is inexpensive.
