Nvidia has added two entry-level GPUs—the GeForce RTX 3050 Ti and RTX 3050—to the RTX 30 laptop line. Nvidia says the chips will be available "this summer" in laptops starting at $799.

Like everything else in the RTX 30 line, these cards are based on the Ampere architecture and are capable of ray tracing and Nvidia's proprietary "Deep Learning Super Sampling" (DLSS) upscaling tech. As you can probably guess from their names, these cards slot in below the existing RTX 3060 GPU, with cuts across the board. You can dive into Nvidia's comparison table below, but the short version is that these cheaper GPUs have less memory (4GB) and fewer CUDA, Tensor, and ray-tracing cores.
