Best Gray Zone Warfare settings for Nvidia RTX 3050

The Nvidia RTX 3050 is an entry-level graphics card you can use to play the latest video games, like Gray Zone Warfare. The GPU is now available in two variants: one at $179 with 6 GB VRAM and another at $249 with 8 GB. The latter is much more powerful, given it has higher core counts and power draw limits. However, both cards are enough to play the new shooter at decent framerates at 1080p.

You need to spend some time customizing the settings options in Gray Zone Warfare. The game can be particularly demanding at the higher settings. Thus, without enough fine-tuning, framerates may be quite bad on the RTX 3050. To help you get started, this article lists the ideal combinations for the card.

Gray Zone Warfare graphics settings for casual gaming on Nvidia RTX 3050

The RTX 3050 was primarily launched for 1080p gaming with some compromises. To this date, the card can deliver almost 60 FPS at this resolution in demanding titles like Gray Zone Warfare.

However, to achieve this framerate, you'll have to crank down the settings to Medium with DLSS set to Quality. Although FSR supports frame generation on this GPU, it delivers worse picture quality ⎯ a trade-off not worth it for casual gamers.

The RTX 3050 can deliver fantastic performance in Gray Zone Warfare with the above settings combinations applied. You can expect the best experience in the 8 GB variant. The 6 GB card is much weaker (about 34% less powerful, according to theoretical estimates) and might require players to stick to the Low preset throughout.
