NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 fell behind RTX 4060 and Radeon RX 6600M in FurMark test

Translated with AI from the Russian original.

With just a few weeks left until the launch of the GeForce RTX 5050, the first synthetic benchmark results have already surfaced online.

Stress test results for the upcoming NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card have appeared in the FurMark database. As noted by user @OyashokuDesu, the GPU featured in the tests bears the PCI-ID 10DE-2D83 — presumably the desktop version of the RTX 5050 with GDDR6 memory.

Paired with an Intel Core i7-9700 processor at 4K resolution, the card scored 1,978 points and delivered around 32 frames per second in the OpenGL test. This is slightly below the level of the Radeon RX 6600M, which itself is a mid-range mobile solution.

According to the results, the RTX 5050 trails the RTX 4060 by roughly 9%. However, it should be kept in mind that FurMark scores do not reflect actual gaming performance and disregard additional technologies such as DLSS 4 and next-generation frame generation, which are exclusive to the RTX 50 Blackwell-based lineup.

The RTX 5050 is powered by the GB207 graphics processor and comes equipped with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory. The benchmark results could have been higher had NVIDIA used GDDR7 memory, but the company decided to cut costs on the desktop version and retain GDDR7 solely for mobile models.
