NVIDIA has another two RTX 30 series cards up its sleeve, according to a prominent leaker. Apparently, the company will release the RTX 3050 Ti and RTX 3060 early next year on its GA106 GPU with up to 3,840 CUDA cores and 6 GB of VRAM. The arrival of the RTX 3050 Ti may signal that there will be no new forthcoming GTX x050 cards, too.

Thing is- can we call them 'budget? They are right under 3060Ti, which is expected to arrive at ~$400. So these could be at ~$320 for the 3060, and ~$260, for the 3050Ti? 'A bit' more, compared to 1050Ti ($139) and 1650Ti ($159), so not in the budget, but midrange/mainstream tier.
I am sure there will be 2550 and 2560 or 2660 and their Ti versions too some time next year. :D
