Palit Launches GeForce RTX 5050 StormX, a Compact Blackwell GPU

Palit has announced its first GeForce RTX 5050 graphics card with one fan, the StormX. This model is designed for small form factor systems with a compact length of 169.9 mm, but still offers the full performance of this… otherwise slow chip.

The card ships with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit interface, running at 20 Gbps for 320 GB/s bandwidth. It has a base clock of 2317 MHz and a boost clock of 2572 MHz. There are in fact two models, one is factory-overclocked, one featuring NVIDIA reference specs. The GPU features 2560 CUDA cores. Palit lists the TGP at 130 W, requiring a single 8-pin power connector, with a recommended system power of 550 W.

Display outputs include one HDMI 2.1b and three DisplayPort 2.1b connectors, supporting up to 4K at 480 Hz or 8K at 120 Hz with DSC. The card is a two-slot design and comes with still features such as 0-dB fan technology, DrMOS power design, and composite heat pipes for improved cooling efficiency.
