Nvidia released the RTX 3050 graphics card at the beginning of this year, which is equipped with GA106-150 GPU, has a 2560 CUDA core, is equipped with 8GB 128bit GDDR6 video memory, the official price is $249, and the recommended retail price of the Bank of China is 1899 yuan.
Recently, it was reported that a Peruvian retailer has listed a $506 RTX 3050 graphics card bundle. This bundle includes The Divid RTX 3050 Dual Overclocking Graphics card and the Geil Orion DDR4-3200 8GB of RAM. A simple calculation shows that the cost of the graphics card is $453 (the memory is listed by the same retailer for $53).
The reason the Peruvian retailer uses the U.S. dollar instead of its own currency is that the peruvian currency fluctuates a lot, so they like to use the U.S. dollar as a pricing standard.
With that in mind, we already have the first retailer pricing to list RTX 3050 graphics cards in DOLLARs, and comparing this price to the official guidance price for NVIDIA's RTX 3050 graphics card ($249), it's clear that the price of this RTX 3050 graphics card is very exaggerated, 82% higher than the guidance price. Although this is a custom model with its own overclocking, its price is still much higher than most of us think, and perhaps, in the current period of extreme lack of graphics card resources, the price of $453 may also be a "small witch".

Starting next week, distributors in Europe and the United States should confirm retail prices in their jurisdictions. Currently, on the vast majority of retail sites that already have RTX 3050 graphics cards on the shelves, these sites either list prices as "to be confirmed" or do not list any price information at all. Very unexpectedly, there are also media brothers who found that a third-party seller of a website has listed an RTX 3050 graphics card that costs up to $699 (it feels like a marketing tool, and the actual price should not be so high).
