Nvidia's GeForce RTX 3050 is no one's idea of a powerhouse, but it's a decent 1080p GPU and it's still the cheapest way to buy into Nvidia's RTX 3000-series ecosystem if you want DLSS 2.0 support or Nvidia's ray-tracing implementation. MSI has published specs for a revised version of one of its RTX 3050 GPUs (via VideoCardz), advertising the same general features and performance levels but lowering the power consumption estimate by 15 W.
