NVIDIA today officially released the RTX30506GB, currently the lowest-end model. However, it is not that the RTX30508GB has removed part of the video memory, but has shrunk in all aspects. RTX30508GB uses the GA106-150 GPU core, equipped with 2560 CUDA cores, 80 tensor cores, 20 light tracing cores, 80 texture units, 32 ROP raster units, with a reference frequency of 1552-1777MHz, and 128-bit8GBGDDR6 video memory, with an equivalent frequency of 14GHz, a bandwidth of 224GB/s, and a total card power consumption of 130W.

RTX30506GB was changed to the smallest GA107 core, numbered GA107-325, with only 2304 CUDA cores, 64 tensor cores, 16 light tracing units, 64 texture units, and only 20 ROP units retained.
The reference frequency has also come down.The benchmark is only 1042MHz, and the maximum acceleration is only 1470MHz.
Video memory has also shrunk across the board, the bit width is only 96-bit, the capacity is only 6GBGDDR6, the equivalent frequency remains unchanged at 14GHz, but the bandwidth is only 168GB/s.
The only good news is that the power consumption of the entire card has been significantly reduced to 70W, almost half, so there is no need for an auxiliary power supply interface.
The overseas reference price of RTX30506GB starts at US$179, and the domestic price should be around 1,500 yuan.
Someone is already selling a sample card on Xianyu. It only has a PCB. You can clearly see the core number, three video memories, and no auxiliary power supply.
Both Gigabyte and MSI announced their new products first, both with dual fans and half-height blade cards.
