As we approach the official release of the GeForce RTX 5050, the first benchmark results have surfaced. These early tests were conducted using FurMark, and while the numbers don’t seem overly impressive, they provide an initial look at how this GPU stacks up against the competition. The RTX 5050 scored 1978 points and 32 FPS in the test, placing it below the Radeon RX 6600M
First RTX 5050 Benchmarks
The first results come from @OyashokuDesu; the GPU was tested using FurMark, a stress test tool that allows for comparing different graphics cards and their performance. It’s unclear which edition of the RTX 5050 was tested, but it is likely the desktop GPU.
It was paired with a Core i7-9700 CPU. The GPU scored 1978 and 32 FPS, placing it below the Radeon RX 6600M, and even slower than the RX 7600 from the previous generation. Additionally, it’s 9% slower than the RTX 4060. However, it does have a core clock boost of 2.9 GHz, though the results are not very promising so far.
The New GPU
The RTX 5050 will be available in a few weeks and will be based on the Blackwell architecture, with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory. This choice is purely economic, as it’s an entry-level graphics card. It will also feature the GB207 chip, with 80 Tensor Cores, 2,560 CUDA cores, 20 RT cores, and 80 TMUs.
This GPU is aimed at users who don’t want to spend too much, yet still want features like ray tracing and DLSS. As mentioned earlier, these early results may not be entirely reliable, as there are several factors to consider. Once we have more information, we will update you so you can get a clearer picture of these new GPUs.
