Budget GPU comeback: ASRock's 4GB RX 9050 stirs debate
TL;DR Summary
ASRock's Radeon RX 9050 arrives in a 4GB VRAM variant—the first modern GPU with only 4GB VRAM in years—built on AMD's RDNA 4 with a 64-bit bus and up to 2,600MHz, enabling features like FSR 4 but falling short for today’s AAA titles; pricing hasn't been announced, though a Best Buy listing hints at about $889 in a prebuilt PC.
