Nvidia RTX 3050 Review ft. Gigabyte and Palit

Death Stranding is a 2019 action game developed by Kojima Productions. It is the first game from director Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions after their split from Konami in 2015. It was published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4 in November 2019 and by 505 Games for Windows in July 2020. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Decima. We test using the Very High preset, DX12 API.

Death Stranding puts the RTX 3050 even closer to the GTX 1660 Super, and in fact the 3050 is marginally slower here… but we’re talking less a single frame, so that means they are just as fast as each other. That said, using the RTX 3050 with PCIe 3.0 did see a reduction in performance – it's only slight, but the 1% lows came down by 6% which is definitely outside our margin for error.
