In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB are massively better than the Nvidia GeForce 7050.
The RTX 3080 was released over three years more recently than the GeForce 7050, and so the RTX 3080 is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the GeForce 7050 when running the latest games.
The RTX 3080 has 10112 MB more video memory than the GeForce 7050, so is likely to be much better at displaying game textures at higher resolutions. This is supported by the fact that the RTX 3080 also has superior memory performance overall.
The GeForce 7050 has 5.3 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the RTX 3080, which means that the memory performance of the GeForce 7050 is marginally better than the RTX 3080.
The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB has 8704 Shader Processing Units and the GeForce 7050 has 2. However, the actual shader performance of the RTX 3080 is 15276 and the actual shader performance of the GeForce 7050 is 1. The RTX 3080 having 15275 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the RTX 3080 delivers a massively smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the GeForce 7050.
The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB requires 320 Watts to run but there is no entry for the GeForce 7050. We would recommend a PSU with at least 750 Watts for the RTX 3080.

| Mini Review | Overview The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB is a High-End Graphics Card based on the Ampere Architecture. This card was also rumoured to be called the GeForce GTX 2180. Architecture It equips an Ampere GPU Codenamed GA102 which is a First Gen Ampere GPU and has 20 SM activated, offering 3386 Shader Processing Units, 212 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The Ampere architecture provides the world's best consumer support for real-time ray-tracing technology, or RTX. It also has 544 Tensor Cores for AI purposes. GPU Name: GA102 GPU The central unit runs at 1440MHz and goes up to 1755MHz in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU accesses a 10GB frame buffer of Third Gen GDDR6X through a 320-bit memory interface, while the Memory Clock Operates at 1750MHz, or 14GHz effective. Total memory bandwidth is 448 Gb/s. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 320W, it requires at least a 750W PSU with available two 8-pin power connector. Performance Predicted performance of the GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB suggests it will be faster than the Geforce RTX 2080 Ti, making it a suitable graphics card for 4K gaming. System Suggestions The GeForce RTX 3080 EVGA XC3 Gaming 10GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840x2160. We recommend a High-End Processor and 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | The GeForce experience is more affordable than ever with NVIDIA GeForce 7 Series motherboard GPUs, now for Intel-based PCs. *Immersive experiences on the latest applications and games. *Enjoy Windows Aero features such as Flip 3D, taskbar preview and translucent windows for a more productive computing experience. *Support for a full range of Intel CPUs (including Core™ 2, Pentium™ and Celeron™ CPU families), DDR2-800 memory and integrated HDMI or DVI display output. | |||
