It don't know how this rates with other cards really but it is the lowest price I've seen on it in months. $200 free ship. 4 hours left on the deal as of this posting.

I must be missing something about this card, but RTX 3050 is going for about $200, with a few at slightly lower prices.

Dual slot (and fans) vs single slot

Smaller footprint, more compact is the name of the game for SFF, HTPC, etc. And fetches a premium.

One Reddit user noted the Yeston low-profile RTX 3050 bests minimal configuration hassles in SFF builds and hits around $200 often. No one’s calling it a performance champ; but it's viable if your build runs shallow/compact and you don't want to mess with power or cooling too much.

It is the performance champ for its niche don't you think? What else is $200 or less, single slot powered, low profile, with RTX features? It merks the A310 and RX 6400, has more ram, and is not hamstrung by PCIe 3.0 or rebar support issues.

Also has full featured encoding enabled not crippled encode like RX 6400. I hate when one of my very limited (possibly ONLY available) expansion slots is blocked off by a GPU.
