Full description and specifications

A 203mm two-slot RTX 5050 built for compact cases

Quick Specs

  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 GPU with 2560 CUDA cores.
  • 8GB GDDR6 memory at 20 Gbps on a 128-bit interface.
  • OC mode boost clock of 2677 MHz.
  • Just 203mm long and two slots wide.
  • 550W recommended PSU with a single 8-pin connector.

Current-generation silicon in a small footprint

The ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5050 exists for the build where length is the binding constraint — a micro-ATX or mini-ITX case, a compact prebuilt, an office tower being turned into a gaming machine. At 203 x 120.2 x 40 mm across two slots, it fits where 300mm triple-fan cards simply do not, and it does so without dropping back a GPU generation to get there.

What Blackwell brings at this tier

2560 CUDA cores boosting to 2677 MHz in OC mode handle 1080p gaming at high settings. More significant is the DLSS 4 support that comes with the fourth-generation Tensor cores, including Multi Frame Generation — the technology that lets a card of this size punch well above where its raw shader count would place it. Fourth-generation RT cores make ray-traced lighting a setting you can actually leave on.

Memory and display support

8GB of GDDR6 at 20 Gbps across a 128-bit bus is enough headroom for modern texture packs at 1080p, where 6GB cards start to stutter. One HDMI 2.1b and three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs drive up to four displays simultaneously with HDCP 2.3, which is a lot of desk for a card this compact.

Two fans, two slots, modest power

The Dual cooler runs two axial-tech fans over a two-slot heatsink — a design ASUS has iterated on for years, tuned to push air through the fin stack rather than around it. A single 8-pin connector and a 550W PSU recommendation keep it compatible with the power supplies already in most small cases, so the upgrade stops at the card itself.

The small-case answer

Compact builds have historically meant compromise: an older card, a lower tier, or a case swap. The Dual RTX 5050 removes that trade-off. You get DLSS 4, ray tracing, the ninth-generation NVENC encoder for streaming and CUDA acceleration for creative work, in a card that clears the drive cage.

FEATURES:

  • 203mm length and two-slot width fit small-form-factor and micro-ATX builds.
  • DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation for substantially higher frame rates in supported titles.
  • Fourth-generation RT cores bring usable ray tracing to the entry tier.
  • Ninth-generation NVENC encoder for streaming and video work.
  • ASUS GPU Tweak III for monitoring, fan curve control and one-click overclocking.

Why ASUS?

The Dual series is ASUS's long-running compact design, refined across several generations and built on Auto-Extreme automated manufacturing. Cards that fit in small cases run hotter by nature, which makes cooling design and component quality matter more, not less — and it is why a 3 year local warranty on a card this size is worth having.

Questions

Before you buy

What size power supply do I need for this card?
ASUS specifies a 550W power supply as the minimum for a complete system built around it. That figure covers the whole PC, not the card on its own, so if your current supply is at or above it you are fine. If you are close to the line, or the supply is an older unbranded unit, it is worth upgrading at the same time - an underpowered PSU shows up as crashes under load rather than a machine that simply will not start.
Will this card fit inside my case?
It is 203mm long. Check the maximum graphics card clearance for your case and make sure it is more than that - allow a little extra for the power cables that plug into the top or end of the card. Every case we sell lists its maximum card length on the Specifications tab, so you can compare the two numbers directly.
Which GPU is in this card, and how much video memory does it have?
This is a GeForce RTX 5050 with 8GB of video memory. Video memory is the buffer the card uses for textures and frame data, so it matters most at higher resolutions and with high-detail texture settings. The full clock speeds, memory interface and display outputs are listed under Specifications above.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
