The RTX 3050 is now available at all major shops. We don't know how many units will be available in the US and UK just yet, but it appears like RTX 3050 supply will be exactly as restricted as the rest of the RTX 30 series. If you want to get your hands on the newest Ampere GPU today, you'll have to hurry. Specific models are listed below that are now available in both countries, however they will not be available for long.
The Newegg Shuffle is currently live, with RTX 3050 cards beginning at $249.99 MSRP and partner cards from MSI, Zotac, Asus, and more. You must be logged in to enter. In the shuffle, there are a variety of units accessible, and if you have a winning ticket, you'll be encouraged to purchase the models you choose based on what's available at the time. In the UK, CCL Online has one listing for the Gigabyte RTX 3050 Gaming OC, which costs £399 for a triple-fan variant. More is on the way, but this option isn't expected to last around for long.
US RTX 3050 stock expected at: Best Buy | Amazon | Newegg | B&H Photo | Adorama | Walmart
UK RTX 3050 stock expected at: Ebuyer | Amazon | Overclockers UK | Currys | CCL | Box

The only RTX 3050 stock available at the time of writing is through the Newegg Shuffle, however separate listings for each item are accessible.

For optimal coverage, we recommend picking all of the choices available in your pricing range.

RTX 3050 price
The RTX 3050 has a starting MSRP of $249 / £239, but because there will be no Founders Edition version, Nvidia's partners will determine the final retail price. While we expect certain partner cards to sell at this pace, we wouldn't be surprised if higher-end option cards sold for nearly twice as much today.
If you're looking for one of the finest graphics cards for gaming on a budget, the RTX 3050 should suffice. If you're looking for this hardware in a portable form factor, once the RTX 3050 launch fervor has died down, we recommend looking into the best RTX 3050 laptop bargains.
Where to find RTX 3050 stock
WHERE TO BUY RTX 3050 - US
1- Check Newegg
All major RTX 3050 video cards are available on the Newegg Shuffle, but you'll need an account to use it. Models from Gigabyte, Zotac, EVGA, and Asus are now available. Prices start at $249.99 and go up to $350 depending on the model.
2- Check Amazon
Amazon doesn't usually go live with stock as soon as it's announced, but we expect many RTX 3050 models to be ready for purchase today at the world's largest online retailer.
We've noticed a couple Gigabyte RTX 3050 listings pop up at Best Buy, with supply shifting in and out of stock. It's conceivable that more are on the way, so if you're looking for a low-cost Ampere card, keep this merchant in mind this morning.
While B&H Photo does not usually have a lot of RTX 30 series stock, it did have a good supply of the prior entry-level model, the RTX 3060. We expect the same thing to happen with RTX 3050 stock, despite its restricted availability.
5- Check Dell
While this online merchant is most known for its RTX 30 series prebuilt rigs and gaming laptops, RTX 30 series video cards were available when it first launched. When the news becomes live, we recommend paying close attention online and on social media.
We've seen RTX 3060 GPUs and RTX 3050 laptops before, so it's safe to assume Adorama will have some RTX 3050 video cards available at the very least this morning.
While Walmart doesn't usually have stock available right away when a product is released, it did hold RTX 30 series devices at MSRP the day prior. It's always a good idea to check in here just in case.
WHERE TO BUY RTX 3050 - UK
1- Check Ebuyer
Many RTX 3050 partner cards have recently been added to Ebuyer's 'coming soon' list, indicating that they will be available shortly. Models from MSI, Asus, and Gigabyte are available, with prices starting at RRP.
CCL Online currently has one RTX 3050 GPU available for £399: the Gigabyte Gaming RTX 3050 OC. We expect more to arrive soon, but even at a price greater than RRP, this one is unlikely to last long.
When the announcement goes live, we expect Overclockers UK to have a large number of RTX 3050 units available for purchase. Pre-orders for the RTX 3050 at RRP are anticipated to sell out before the devices go on sale on launch day (which tend to be pricier).
4- Check Currys
While Currys has had RTX 30 series partner cards for longer than some other RTX 30 series stores, it is presently uncertain what level of representation may be expected this afternoon.
5- Check Amazon
We've noticed that Amazon UK has a larger presence for RTX 30 series availability at launch than Amazon US. With this in mind, while we don't expect a major stock decrease today, we do expect at least a few units to appear.
