My Opinion on the GeForce RTX 3050

“The GeForce RTX 3050 is a graphics card from NVIDIA that

targets mid-range gaming and content creation needs. Here are some key points about it:

Performance: The RTX 3050 offers good performance for 1080p gaming at high settings in most modern games. It’s also capable of handling content creation tasks like video editing and 3D rendering reasonably well.
Architecture: It’s based on NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture, which brings improvements in ray tracing performance, AI capabilities, and overall efficiency compared to previous generations.
Ray Tracing and DLSS: The RTX 3050 supports real-time ray tracing and NVIDIA’s Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) technology, enhancing visual quality and performance in supported games.
Memory: It typically comes with 8GB of GDDR6 memory, which is sufficient for gaming and content creation tasks at 1080p resolution.
Price: Its price point makes it a competitive option for budget-conscious gamers and creators looking for solid performance without breaking the bank.

Overall, the GeForce RTX 3050 is a good choice for gaming at 1080p and entry-level content creation tasks, offering a balance between performance and affordability.” (Conversation with ChatGPT on GeForce RTX 3050)

CORSAIR Dominator Titanium

February 27, 2024Memory ReviewsPierce

When I first used this RAM I put it into my PC with an ASUS ROG Maximus Z790 Formula. This is easily the fastest and most impressive RAM I’ve ever used. With an amazing 8000MT/s speed and Dual-Channel support the CORSAIR Dominator Titanium is the best RAM I’ve ever used.

I highly recommend this product, although it is quite expensive I think it it worth the price. If you are going for a powerful PC this is the best RAM I can recommend.

I haven’t had an issue when using this and even after multiple weeks it hasn’t ran out of space. With the 2×24 set you can run many applications at the same time. While testing this RAM I had multiple games open and discord open without an issue. Cannot recommend more. 10/10.

Intel Core i9-13900KS Review

January 25, 2024CPU reviewsPierce

This CPU worked amazing and I had no issues with it, I installed it into an ASUS Prime B760-PLUS Intel. I highly recommend this CPU. I didn’t have a single crash when using this CPU. During my 2 months of use of this CPU, I used it for gaming on high settings, watching movies, talking with friends, etc. It was a great CPU and I will probably be ordering another one to give to someone as a gift. 10/10

When using this CPU I was attempting to stress test the CPU by playing many graphically intensive video games such as Call Of Duty MWIII, Tekken 8, Cyberpunk 2077, and multiple more on high to max graphics, and this CPU performed amazingly. This is because the CPU scored a 61883 rating on PassMark. This is the best CPU in its category (at the time of this blog being posted). Once again, I cannot recommend this CPU more than I already have.
