The RTX 5050 could have 8 GB of GDDR6 and cost around $250

According to Benchlife, the RTX 5050 is on NVIDIA's roadmap. This entry-level model would cost around $250 and would compete with Intel Arc Battlemage cards.

The special feature of the RTX 5050 would be the use of GDDR6 memory rather than GDDR7, unlike the other models in the Blackwell range. This configuration would reduce costs, but would also limit memory bandwidth and performance beyond 1080p.

In addition, AMD is said to be preparing a Radeon RX 9050, with no further details as yet. This new card would strengthen the offer in the entry-level segment, currently dominated by Intel B570/B580 GPUs.
