John - reviewed on 12 October 2024 The Palit GeForce RTX 3050 KalmX 6Gb card is very good in my view, it is obviously completely silent, and consumes about 68 - 70W when it's working at 100%. It is well constructed and the heatsink provides a big surface area in a small space - just be careful of the fins because they are necessarily thin and can bend if you push on them when seating the card in the slot. I have them in 2 separate PCs I built myself. In one the KalmX tops out at 91 deg C and in the other at 88 deg C when running at full throttle, I think the Palit website states a max design temp for the card of 93 deg C, above which I believe it may throttle back to protect itself but this has not happened to mine to date. I have not bothered with any case fans in either PC (although on the Palit box packaging it states that case fans should be fitted) so the only fans are on the Intel CPU heatsink and in the PSU of each of my PCs. I don't like noisy GPUs or using too much electricity so I am willing to forgo a bit of performance in games compared to more powerful cards and am happy to pay a slight premium in price for it being fan-less. You can generally get 40-60 FPS at 1080P from most modern games with the GeForce 3050 6Gb if you're willing to tinker with the game settings to some extent and most older games run at 60 FPS+ on max settings. All in all I am really happy and recommend you buy this card - Palit have done a good thing here with offering a fanless modern reasonably powerful graphics card option and they should be congratulated for being the only manufacturer at time of writing to do this.

It might sound difficult to believe but this is actually her first mobile! Once I had set it up with contact details and an emergency contact list, linked to the emergency button, she's taken to it like a duck to water. She's even now getting used to the hands free set up which is great for older people with failing hearing.
Even better, the delivery arrived early despite being delivered to a rural location in Cornwall. Read more » | Jonathan - reviewed on 09 October 2024 Great sound.
