MSI RTX 5050 8G Ventus 2X OC graphics card

SKU CH-6M07-YSDKR

GeForce RTX 5050 GPU with 8GB GDDR6 memory, 2560 CUDA cores, 2602 MHz boost clock, PCIe 5.0 interface, dual-fan cooling, and HDMI 2.1b plus three DisplayPort 2.1a outputs

  • InterfacePCI Express 5.0
  • Chipset ManufacturerNVIDIA
  • GPU SeriesNVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series
  • GPUGeForce RTX 5050
  • Boost Clock2602 MHz
  • CUDA Cores2560
  • Boost clock reaches 2602 MHz for responsive 1440p gaming
  • 2560 CUDA cores accelerate ray-tracing and AI workloads
  • 8 GB GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus delivers 20 Gbps bandwidth
  • PCI Express 5.0 interface doubles host bandwidth over 4.0
  • Dual-fan Ventus cooler fits 197 mm length for compact builds

Build fit

The card occupies a dual-slot footprint and measures 197 mm in length, so it fits most mid-tower cases without blocking drive bays. A single 8-pin connector draws up to 130 W, meaning a 550 W supply is sufficient for typical systems. Three DisplayPort 2.1a outputs and one HDMI 2.1b port drive up to four displays at 7680 x 4320 resolution.

Sustained behaviour

Under continuous load the 2560 CUDA cores hold a 2602 MHz boost clock while the twin fans move air across the heatsink. The 128-bit GDDR6 interface delivers 20000 MHz effective memory bandwidth for stable frame pacing. DirectX 12 Ultimate and OpenGL 4.6 support ensure consistent API performance during extended gaming or compute sessions.

Questions about this item

When does the 130W TDP become the limiting factor under sustained load?

The card is rated at 130W TDP; once the GPU hits that power ceiling the boost clock of 2602 MHz will hold only as long as the cooler can keep temperatures in check, so prolonged heavy compute or gaming will see clocks settle at the level the 130W envelope allows

How loud and hot does the dual-fan Ventus cooler get during all-day operation?

The Ventus 2X uses two fans to move heat from the 130W TDP; under continuous load the fans ramp to keep the GPU within its thermal target, producing a noticeable but not extreme airflow noise while exhausting warm air out the rear I/O bracket

What power connector and PSU headroom are required before this card will work?

You need a power supply of at least 550W with one free 8-pin PCIe power connector; the card draws up to 130W through that single connector and the PCI Express 5.0 slot
