Which GPU should you choose for Blender?
A10G 24 GB is the stronger Blender rendering pick here based on benchmark score.
Cycles rendering performance
A10G 24 GB leads by 127.7% in the Renderjuice Blender benchmark model (3,205 vs 1,408). For render-time-first decisions, that is the card to prioritize.
VRAM and scene capacity
A10G 24 GB has more scene headroom with 24 GB of VRAM versus 8 GB on RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB. That matters most for large environments, dense geometry, high-resolution textures, and less optimized production files.
Power ratings and cooling
RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB is the lower-power option at 130 W TDP, compared with 150 W for A10G 24 GB. If render speed is close, that can make RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB easier to cool and run quietly.
Is the upgrade worthwhile?
RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB is newer, but A10G 24 GB still leads this Blender benchmark comparison. That makes the older card worth considering when used pricing or VRAM capacity is favorable.
Comparison summary
A10G 24 GB leads the Blender benchmark score by 127.7%.
Fastest in Cycles: A10G 24 GB 128% faster than RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB.
Most VRAM: A10G 24 GB 200% more VRAM than RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB.
Lowest power draw: RTX 3050 OEM 8 GB 13% lower rating than A10G 24 GB.
