A new leak says the desktop GeForce RTX 4050 will feature 6 GB of video memory on a 96-bit bus. Its other specs, such as CUDA core count, base/boost clocks and GPU, are unknown, but the graphics card will be launched sometime in June 2023. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Nvidia-GeForce-RTX-4050-desktop-variant-could-launch-with-just-6-GB-of-VRAM.704036.0.html
The comparisons to the 8GB RTX 3050 will be harsh, but it can be good if the price is low.
Who needs this pathetic s*** on the desktop?
It doesn't have DP2.1 at 80Gbps. It doesn't have enough VRAM even for old games. This is a waste of money for both entertainment and work, because. does not allow you to connect 8k monitors in the future and play for new games with 60fps+ with high quality.
The price of this stub can be no more than $150.

DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.1 can be used for 8K video playback. You won't be doing 8K gaming with a 1080p card.
The 6500 XT with only 4 GB VRAM sells for $150 right now. Nvidia can easily get away with $200 for a 4050, maybe more.
