Overall Combination Score 52/100 60/100 8 (15%)
Our Verdict: At 1440p, RTX 3050 Mobile Refresh 6 GB can hit 50-60 frames per second on pretty much everything at ultra, just without antialiasing, less ambient occlusion and turned down shadows. Whereas RTX 3060 Max-Q can hit 50-60 frames per second at maximum settings. Upgrading from RTX 3050 Mobile Refresh 6 GB to RTX 3060 Max-Q is not recommended as it is less than 30% of improvement in performance. In general, a reasonable upgrade is between 30% and 50% or more to justify the purchase of new hardware. The price/performance ratio is much better for RTX 3050 Mobile Refresh 6 GB .
