3050 para may RTX On haha
I personally wouldn't buy a brand new 3050 for 18-20K. A much better deal imo is to buy a used 3070 for around 16-17K. Only thing that needs to be done is to run it for a couple of hours in a stress test to check for issues. Maybe if you're tech-savvy, maybe even replace the thermal paste on the die, but even mining cards should have good paste still. Higher performance for a slightly lower price is a win in my book.

better if you can wait for 2023, may mga prediction na baba na ang prices dahil makakarecover na ang mga nagmamanufacture ng transistor from the effects ng covid pandemic. some btc miners are going out of the business narin kasi di na masyado profitable hehe
