Nvidia Unveils RTX 5060 Series: Affordable GPUs with DLSS 4 Magic, but Tariff Concerns Loom

Nvidia Promises the RTX 5060 Ti Is a 1440p Beast, but Tariffs Could Change That

Nvidia's $430 RTX 5060 Ti could be incredible for 1440p gaming, but you should watch out for pricing changes. Finally, after a supposed delay, Nvidia is ready to unveil the graphics cards the rest of us can afford, or at least we could if Trump tariffs don’t make them untenable. On Tuesday, Nvidia showed off the $300 GeForce RTX 5060 and $430 5060 Ti. They are supposed to offer many times the performance of the 4060, though they’re even more reliant fancy AI tricks like DLSS and “fake frames.†But their launch comes as a tricky tariff time which means those prices are “subject to change,†and you can thank Trump for the uncertainty. The RTX 5060 Ti is the real star of the show. The titanium-edition desktop-level graphics card has two versions, one at $380 with 8 GB of GDDR7 VRAM and another at 16 GB. What’s the difference? The one with more memory, or RAM, is going to work much better for higher resolutions. When asked why Nvidia didn’t offer a 12 GB VRAM option, company reps said they couldn’t offer that option with the current memory bus. The cheaper Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 will launch sometime in May. In case you were wondering, no, there won't be a Nvidia-made Founders' Edition 5060 or 5060 Ti this time around. Also, these cards will either use one or two 8-pin power connectors, not the 12-pin used for all of the company's other GPUs. So check your power supply cables before pulling the trigger. The 5060 Ti is working off a 2.57 GHz boost clock on a 128-bit memory bus. Nvidia did not provide clock speeds for the RTX 5060. The 5060 Ti will compete with Nvidia’s own RTX 5070 for best graphics card for 1440p. The 5060, on the other hand, will inevitably be relegated to 1080p resolutions though it may manage to hold its own in some less-demanding titles at 1440p. That's mostly due to the limited VRAM which is necessary for processing higher-quality textures. Blackwell, Nvidia’s current GPU microarchitecture, is all about AI processing, as seen previously with the $550 RTX 5070, $750 RTX 5070 Ti, $1,000 RTX 5080, and $2,000 RTX 5090. The RTX 5060 can do 614 AI TOPS (trillions of operations per second, which is a derived value for determining AI performance) while the Ti will supposedly do 759 TOPS. The next step up with the 5070 is 988 AI TOPS. The 5060’s shader cores produce 19 TFLOPS (representing one trillion floating-point operations per second, a measure of how many calculations it can perform) while the 5060 Ti outputs 24 TFLOPS. The RTX 5070 hits 94 TFLOPS. All those TFLOPS and TOPS should be good for training AI models, but Nvidia also says it should make its game upscaling technology, DLSS 4, more capable too. One of the cool features of DLSS 4, and the Blackwell microarchitecture, is the ability to insert multiple AI-generated frames between rendered frames, effectively increasing in-game framerates. At CES earlier this year, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang promised the RTX 5070 could churn out similar framerates to the RTX 4090, the last-gen flagship. It was a big promise, and one that didn't pan out when reviewers actually got their hands on those cards. Now, Nvidia claims that with DLSS 4 enabled, the 5060 Ti is able to output many times more frames than a base 4060, even if its native rendering performance isn't nearly as dramatic. A 4060 Ti (which launched for $500 MSRP) may do 87 simulated FPS in Hogwarts Legacy at max settings with 1440p resolution, but the 5060 Ti should do 171 simulated FPS. Unfortunately, didn't offer offer any real insight into the native rendering performance of both cards, and users will have to wait for reviews to find out more. Nvidia claims you only need to have around 40 FPS natively in order for frame generation to kick in and emulate a much higher framerate, but for truly smooth performance without any hint of awkward visual artifacts, you really need closer to 60 FPS. The company is essentially claiming that DLSS will go hand-in-hand with the lower-cost GPUs to truly push their performance. That may only hold true if these graphics cards remain at their lower prices. Nvidia’s GeForce desktop GPU product manager, Justin Walker, told reporters that the 5060 prices didn’t include “any regional BAT or Tariffs.†He added, that the company has no plans to delay release, but “it is reasonable to say that pricing is subject to change because of tariffs.†Nvidia has an effective monopoly on high-end GPUs, and that lack of competition is a big reason the RTX 5090 sells for $2,000 MSRP (though with stock woes most cards costs much more than that). For lower-end graphics cards, the competition has never been more fierce. Last year, Intel debuted its Battlemage series of graphics processors that competed in the $200 to $300 range. Just a few months ago, AMD rocked Nvidia’s price scaling with the $550 Radeon RX 9070 and $600 9070 XT. The base RX 9070 was solid for most 1440p and some 4K scenarios, but the XT was in a class of its own, offering solid 4K performance for far less than the 5070 Ti. There’s a fair few cards hovering in the midrange market, but the 5060 Ti seems to be competing directly for 1440p stardom with the RX 9070 and RTX 5070. It’s one to watch, especially if GPU stock issues persist. With tariffs being such a clusterfuck, it’s nearly impossible to guess how much these graphics cards will go for in a few weeks’ time. Both versions launch April 16. So its time to make sure you have comfy shoes for the line at Microcenter.

NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) review: A solid semi-budget GPU for $429 (but good luck scoring that price)

It's a better deal than the 5070, and for some reason it has more RAM too. NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti aims at a very niche group of gamers. Starting at $379 with 8GB of VRAM, or $429 with 16GB, the 5060 Ti is for people who want something a bit more powerful than the base $299 RTX 5060, but aren't willing to shell out for the midrange $549 RTX 5070. (And it's worth noting that card is already selling for well beyond that price). In terms of raw rendering power, it's a minor upgrade over the previous RTX 4060 Ti. But thanks to the power of DLSS 4 AI upscaling, as well as 4X frame generation (the ability to create three interpolated frames for every one that's rendered), the RTX 5060 Ti can reach surprisingly high fps scores in 1080p and even 1440p. During my testing of PNY's RTX 5060 Ti 16GB card, I found it to be a solid performer overall, especially for games that can tap into 4X frame generation. But of course, it's unclear if you'll actually be able to buy it for $429, given the already volatile nature of the GPU industry and the additional headache of the Trump administration's unwieldy tariff plans. Would it be worth spending over $500 or even $600 on the RTX 5060 Ti? That's much harder to tell. Now if you're wondering why NVIDIA chose to offer 16GB of RAM in the RTX 5060 Ti, while it saddled the RTX 5070 with just 12GB, I don't really have any answers for you. It's a confusing move, and it's another sign that the RTX 5070 was simply a bit too mid. Even more curious, the 5060 Ti also has higher clock speeds than the 5070, reaching between 2.4GHz and 2.57GHz. The 5070 is rated between 2.16GHz and 2.51Ghz. Otherwise, the 5060 Ti sits right below the 5070: It has 4,608 Blackwell CUDA cores that can reach 24 TFLOPs, 759 AI TOPS and 72 TFLOPS of 4th-gen ray tracing cores. The 5070, meanwhile, has 6,144 CUDA cores for 31 TFLOPS of Blackwell shader power, 988 AI TOPS and 94 ray tracing TLFOPs. The PNY 5060 Ti I tested seemed like a typical budget GPU. It's relatively small, features just two fans and has one PSU connection. You won't be mistaking it for a slick NVIDIA Founder's Edition card, that's for sure. For the most part, the RTX 5060 Ti delivered everything I'd want in a sub-$500 video card. And in some cases, it even exceeded my expectations. At the end of the day, the 5060 Ti is still a slightly souped-up budget card, so there are bound to be compromises. If you're still using an RTX 3060 or an older GPU, you'll see some huge speed boosts from the RTX 5060 Ti. But think twice before spending well over $500. If the GPU market stabilizes in the future, you may be able to snag an AMD Radeon RX 9070 or an NVIDIA RTX 5070 for $549. The Radeon is likely the better alternative, since it scored higher than the 5070 in most of our tests. On paper, NVIDIA has done a lot right with the 16GB GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. It'll be more than enough for demanding games in 1080p and 1440p, even if you let loose a bit with ray tracing. But it's also relying on DLSS 4 upscaling for much of that performance, which may make some wary about the 5060 Ti's actual power.

The RTX 5060 Family Is Here, but Skip the 8GB Models

This Fresh Puzzle Roguelike Makes Me Wish More Games Would Dare to Be Different NVIDIA's RTX 5060 Ti launches tomorrow, April 16th. The 8GB model has a suggested retail price of $379, while the more desirable 16GB variant is $429. The standard RTX 5060, priced at $299 SRP and limited to 8GB VRAM, will arrive in May. In terms of raw performance, the RTX 5060 family isn't all that different from the previous RTX 4060-series GPUs. You'll see about a 20% performance improvement in games that don't support performance-accelerating technologies like DLSS MFG. Games that do support MFG get a much more substantial performance upgrade thanks to the RTX 5060's DLSS 4 implementation. NVIDIA says that the 5060 Ti will run Black Myth Wukong at 102 FPS with full ray tracing and a 1440p resolution -- a 4060 Ti would achieve just 46 FPS at the same graphics settings. Other games that support DLSS, such as Hogwarts Legacy and Cyberpunk 2077, should also experience a ~100% FPS increase when paried with the RTX 5060 Ti. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be any improvement in latency. A graph comparing 5060 Ti performance to previous-gen cards, shown below, reveals that the 5060 Ti has ever-so-slightly less input lag than the 4060 Ti. Like, NVIDIA says you'll have over 120ms of latency playing Alan Wake 2 and 50ms in Hogwarts Legacy. This is at 1440p with maximum in-game graphics settings, of course, but it's still kind of odd. New AI technology coupled with mild raw performance gains -- that's the RTX 50-series in a nutshell. Gone are the days of groundbreaking generational leaps in GPU performance. Still, the 16GB RTX 5060 Ti looks like a good option for 1080p gamers, 3D artists, and AI nerds. Pricing for the RTX 5060 family is pretty generous, too, at least on paper. You can buy a brand-new RTX 5060 for $299 or an RTX 5060 Ti for $379. There's just one problem -- these prices only get you 8GB of VRAM. Most customers will end up buying the upgraded 16GB RTX 5060 Ti, as they should, since it's slightly cheaper than the 5070 but offers similar performance. Honestly, it seems like the 8GB versions of the RTX 5060 only exist to elicit favorable headlines and encourage upsells. (A minimum 12GB of VRAM would be a lot more practical.) In any case, NVIDIA's suggested retail pricing doesn't really line up with reality. Retailers like Newegg are already listing the 16GB 5060 Ti for $480. We may also see prices increase due to tariffs -- the White House has paused "reciprocal" tariffs on some electronics, but graphics cards and other devices imported from China are still subject to the 20% tariff rate introduced earlier this year. Related Bought a New Gaming PC? Don't Make These Infuriating Mistakes Purchased or built a shiny new gaming PC? Here's some gotchas you'll want to watch out for. Posts 2 The White House has also suggested that its tariff exemption on electronics is "temporary," and President Trump denied that there were any tariff exemptions just two days after announcing the electronics exemption. And for all we know, NVIDIA may have already factored tariffs into its suggested retail pricing. Needless to say, it's impossible to predict how pricing may change over the coming months, and we aren't sure when the RTX 5060-series cards will experience their first discount or sale. The RTX 5060 Ti launches April 16th with suggested retail prices starting at $379. Again, I suggest that you spring for the 16GB model, which costs $429 SRP. NVIDIA will release the standard RTX 5060 in May for $299 SRP. Partner brands will also begin selling RTX 5060-equipped laptops next month for $1,099 and up. Source: NVIDIA

An army of Nvidia's affordable GeForce RTX 5060 laptops are coming soon

Nvidia's new GeForce RTX 5060 gaming laptops will be here in May, starting at $1100. In addition to the GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti desktop graphics card announcements today, Nvidia has pulled the curtain off the RTX 5060 for gaming laptops. According to Nvidia's promotional materials, models packing the discrete card will be available from "every major OEM," including Acer, Asus, Dell/Alienware, Gigabyte, HP, Lenovo, MSI, and Razer. Nvidia says that models packing the mid-range Blackwell GPU will start at $1099 and be "as thin as 14.9mm," or .59 inches, with availability beginning as soon as May. Though Nvidia didn't specify how much video RAM will be packed into the RTX 5060 laptop card, 8GB seems like a safe bet, considering that's what's going into the base model RTX 5060 card on desktops, and the laptop 5070 already offers 8GB of VRAM. How much performance can you expect? That'll depend on the other components of your laptop, of course, not to mention variables in game design and settings. But directly comparing the new 5060 to the laptop 4060 and 3060 cards, Nvidia made a stunning claim: 146 frames per second for the 5060, versus 60 on the 4060 and just 21 on the 3060. That's running a benchmark in Cyberpunk 2077 with "Max Settings" (presumably path tracing), DLSS quality mode, and max frame gen. "Max frame gen" is, presumably, how the newer card managed such a huge increase. DLSS 4 can create three "AI-generated" frames for every one fully rendered frame, which would largely account for the doubled framerate versus the 4060 card (which can only generate one AI frame for every rendered frame). Some critics call these "fake frames," though the take from PCWorld reviewers Brad Chacos and Adam Patrick Murray is a little more nuanced. In short: it looks pretty amazing in games that support it, though it might not be relevant to you if you demand pure rendered performance. Nvidia gave other examples of performance in popular games, without directly comparing to previous laptop cards. The quoted framerates were shown with the same setup: 100-watt TGP on the GPU, paired with a Core 9 Ultra, 1080p, maximum settings, and maximum frame generation. It's not surprising that every big gaming laptop manufacturer is on board, considering Nvidia's domination of the graphics card industry even as end users yearn for more affordable hardware. An xx60 laptop that "starts" at $1100 is still pretty dang pricey -- laptops with RTX 4060 cards can regularly be found on sale in the $700 range, albeit years after they debuted. And who knows how the prices will fluctuate as the Trump tariff situation in the US shifts, making a pig's ear of any kind of pricing predictions that go beyond a single day.

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5060 series brings DLSS 4's magic to the masses

Nvidia announces the $299 GeForce RTX 5060 and two different RTX 5060 Ti models with 8GB and 16GB VRAM. Just in time for summer, Nvidia's "Blackwell" graphics cards are coming to the masses, awesome new DLSS 4 features in tow. Today, Nvidia unveiled not one, not two, but three new GeForce RTX 5060-series GPUs, starting at $299. That $299 offering, the vanilla 8GB GeForce RTX 5060, won't hit the streets until sometime in May. But the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti arrives tomorrow, April 16, with your choice of memory configurations: 8GB for $379 or 16GB for $429. While the RTX 5060 Ti has graphical prowess to play at 1440p in many titles, these GPUs will probably be better suited for 1080p gaming given their tiny 128-bit bus and mere 8GB of GDDR7 memory in all but the tippity-top offering. Check out the specs below. Those paltry 8GB memory buffers are sure to raise some eyebrows. Gamers have been saying "8GB ain't enough" for years now, as numerous cutting-edge games have run into performance issues caused by exceeding 8GB memory capacity. Think lowered texture details, stuttering, or even a flat-out refusal to run in some cases. Intel's $250 Arc B580 packs 12GB of (slower GDDR6) memory across a wider 192-bit bus to avoid capacity issues, but Nvidia decided to stick with the smaller amount, ostensibly to reduce cost. GeForce product management director Justin Walker acknowledged that 8GB of VRAM capacity might not deliver maximum performance in all circumstances, especially if settings are pushed in intense games. "If you want to play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle maxed out at 1440p resolution, yeah, i think the 16GB version is for you." That said, Walker asked, "How do we get you a product with the best possible performance for dollar?" He said Nvidia balances by targeting most use cases. Most people playing most games, especially outside of Ultra settings, will do fine with 8GB of VRAM, he said. To back up that assertion, Nvidia released benchmark charts for the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 showing that the cards perform and respond much faster than the RTX 3060 Ti (which doesn't support AI Frame Generation) and the 4060 Ti (which only supports 2x Frame Gen) when you activate Nvidia's killer suite of features. Those include normal DLSS upscaling, 4x Multi Frame Generation, and the latency-busting Nvidia Reflex tool. (Delta Force in the charts above lack Frame Gen, but support Reflex.) That was the theme of Nvidia's press briefing: Don't just look at base rasterization numbers (which Walker said would only be 20 to 25 percent faster than the 4060 series) but the peak experience, with all features activated. Not everyone embraces AI features, but a whole lot of gamers do, and the screenshots below show what the RTX 5060 series is capable of if you go whole-hog on Nvidia features. I said it before, and I'll say it again: Nvidia bet the entire RTX 50-series on DLSS 4's Multi Frame Gen feature. Fortunately, it works like black magic, delivering exceptional frame pacing and ultra-smooth visuals with good responsiveness - assuming you're able to hit roughly a 60 frames-per-second base rendering frame rate before flipping MFG on. Will the RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti be able to do that? We'll know when those cards launch as a barrage of custom models -- there's no Founders Edition for these parts -- starting tomorrow (April 16) for the 5060 Ti, followed by the RTX 5060 in May. Independent reviews should hopefully give us a full scope of the RTX 5060 series' capability sooner than later. Stay tuned.

Nvidia's RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti GPUs start at just $299 -- but how long will they last?

I have been wondering where the affordable GPUs went, and now they're finally here -- Nvidia just unveiled today both desktop and laptop RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti GPUs. Buckle up because the desktop RTX 5060 Ti is launching tomorrow, April 16, starting at $379 with 8GB of VRAM. You can bump up to the 16GB VRAM model for just $429. However, those will probably sell like hotcakes and you may be stuck with a $500 GPU, so lock in, gamer. You can take a breather on the RTX 5060 for now since that won't launch until sometime in May. That model will ship with 8GB of VRAM for the low price of $399. As for the RTX 5060 gaming laptops, Nvidia states that they'll also launch in May, starting at $1,099. That's actually a decent price considering the previous generation. However, there are a number of other specs to consider. And who knows how tariffs will impact that price. But we do know which laptops are confirmed to arrive and how well Nvidia claims the RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti perform. While many have their criticisms of DLSS 4 discouraging developers from optimizing their games (including me), it's an undeniably positive technology for budget gaming laptops. The RTX 4060 series barely scrapes along the 30 frame-per-second threshold in Cyberpunk 2077, but now, according to Nvidia, you can get up to 148 fps. Gaming on a budget doesn't need to feel like settling for less, not anymore. With an RTX 5060, you can get 114 fps in Alan Wake II, 220 fps in Avowed, 330 fps in Marvel Rivals, and the list goes on. If you don't already know why the new 50-series is such a massive improvement over its predecessors, it's because of Multi Frame Generation. With the power of AI, DLSS 4 can generate up to three frames for every one true frame. Therefore, boosting fps. It's not a perfect science. Visual artifacts may still be present, which could make the image blurrier than it should look. That's one of the few reasons why the technology is currently criticized. But there's no denying its usefulness. Despite that, the RTX 5060 GPU is still stuck with 8GB of VRAM, which is unchanged from the previous generation. That's unfortunate because there are a few games that can be super taxing on the GPU and cannot withstand only 8GB of VRAM being used. So even if you have killer performance, it won't matter if you don't have the memory for it. Acer debuted its new Nitro-series today. The Nitro 16 AI and Nitro 16S AI are slated to launch in July in EMEA starting at EUR 1,399. Pricing and availability are still up in the air in the U.S., but the Nitro 16 AI should arrive sometime in Q3. Meanwhile, the Nitro V 16S AI and Nitro 18 AI will both launch in August in EMEA, starting at EUR 899 and EUR 1,499, respectively. Again, U.S. pricing and availability haven't been disclosed. These laptops weren't listed in Nvidia's blog, but we did get to see the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16S, Dell Alienware 16 Area-51, Gigabyte Aero X16, HP Omen 16, Lenovo Legion 5i Pro, MSI Venture Pro 16 AI, Razer Blade 16, and of course, my favorite, the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14. The Alienware 16 and Razer Blade 16 are weird pulls for the RTX 5060 because those laptops are typically so damn expensive, but we'll see how it plays out.

I played games for 24 hours on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti -- here's why DLSS 4 makes it a single-player dream

While the RTX 5090 is the supercar to get people through the door, Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is the more cost effective option you walk out with the keys to. Not only is this a solid mid-range GPU, the DLSS 4 capabilities unlocked by this give you versatility in its performance. Games that support the likes of multi-frame generation absolutely shine on the RTX 5060 Ti -- the same as any creative or AI workload that really makes the most of its rendering prowess or the vastly increased number of AI-centric Tensor cores. Step outside of Nvidia's playground (and the company's cherry-picked numbers to really brag about the card, and you will notice the gains are only minor compared to the 4060 Ti. So if you are using a PC with this card, I'd recommend waiting it out -- you already get most of the DLSS 4 features anyway! Plus, the decision to stick to the same 128-bit memory bus as the previous generation GPU (how much data can be moved per clock cycle) does make for some small bottleneck moments. Yes, some of the neural rendering techniques do compress the data that needs to be transferred with AI, but when you need that raw performance on multiplayer games, you need to tone down the use of DLSS and it can be felt. However, if you're on anything older than that (3060 or older), the improvements in game performance and working speeds are significant. And at this price (provided brands stick to the MSRP), all of that in-game AI trickery really starts to make sense.. Just make sure you pick the right 5060 Ti! Sure, there is a cheaper version with 8GB of GDDR7 video memory for $379. But no matter what AI optimizations can be made to the size demands of graphics, you're seeing many AAA games blast past that. With 16GB of video memory, you've got a little more headroom for just $50 extra. Though it is worth noting we haven't been given the 8GB model to test, so this is all theoretical based on my experience with 16GB. So as you can see, GPU performance in gaming benchmarks is seeing an average 27% uplift over the previous generation, and even more over the 30-series. But that's just half the story. Nvidia's target for the RTX 5060 Ti is 1440p, and it should come as no surprise that it delivers. What did surprise me, however, is just what it is capable of and how much DLSS just makes sense here. You see in more expensive cards, dropping up to two grand on a 5090 to just be told to use DLSS can leave a bit of a bad taste in potential buyers' mouths. But to see it in a far cheaper GPU like this, and how it can unlock impressively smooth gameplay at even 4K is bonkers. Multi-frame gen uses AI to construct 3 additional frames alongside the 1 rendered frame, but as you can see, it's overperforming here. Being able to get over 100 FPS at 4K ray-tracing: ultra settings on Cyberpunk 2077 is a stellar achievement in a $430 card. Pair that with moving from the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model of DLSS 3 that analyzed images on the fly to a Transformer Model (working more like ChatGPT does), and the vast drop in image ghosting on fast-moving objects means most people won't notice any sort of outlines. That is unless you pixel peep and maybe see the odd artifacting around a character's hair. Also, it's worth noting this Transformer Model is coming to RTX 4060 Ti too (minus the multi-frame gen). Of course, there are potential latency issues here, which Reflex does help with in games like Forza Horizon 5. And on top of that, when you look at the raw rendering performance, you start to see how small the gains are here over the 4060 Ti. But that clearly isn't Nvidia's focus here -- AI performance boosting and neural rendering is. A lot of people use DLSS, and in a cheaper GPU, this hits the bullseye. If your purpose with your GPU extends beyond making your games look good, just like anything else, there's an upward trend between what you pay and what you get -- highlighted especially by testing it as a workstation for content creation. Blender is a good GPU-intensive test of video and graphics rendering, and as you can see, the CUDA cores responsible for rendering give the 5060 Ti a healthy 37% increase in performance over 4060 Ti, and a nice 69% over 3060 Ti. But as a bit of an enthusiast in both of these, this is strong for prosumer work and rendering video (or animation) edits. The RTX 5060 Ti has several notable strengths, but there are a couple of elements that stop it just short of being a multi-purpose all-around perforrmer. When it comes to playing online multiplayer games, three things matter: raw rendering performance (DLSS can be a distraction), high frame rates and low latency times (anywhere below 10ms is good). And this seems to be the one weak point of the RTX 5060 Ti in our testing. Of course, this is only on maximum settings. You can fiddle with them to bring that demand down and improve the frame rate and latency. But given the higher memory bandwidth, stuffing it through a 128-bit bus seems to create a bit of a bottleneck situation under high stress like this. If you don't want to compromise the fidelity in multiplayer, you'll need to step your GPU investment up. While content creation improvements are solid here, and chances are with more machine learning coming to video editing apps, you'll see those Tensor cores come in strong. If you need strong AI workload performance, the RTX 5060 Ti is decidedly mid-range with only small uplifts over the 4060 Ti. Of course, if this is a key focus of buying a GPU for you, then you're going to get more throwing more money at it -- be it the 5070 and higher, or even possibly going for a 4080 or 4090 (a 4090 can generate an image in this test in under a second). But for people getting enthusiastic about AI, this offers a decent-enough local prowess given the speed of image generation and running local LLMs. So where does this leave the RTX 5060 Ti GPU? Put simply, it's the GPU where DLSS 4 really makes sense. While raw performance has seen a small uplift over 4060 Ti, the focus on AI in this card really unlocks performance that outstrips what other GPUs are capable of at this price. But that doesn't mean it's a worthwhile purchase for everyone. You're going to fit into one of these categories: But like I said, just make sure you target the version with 16GB of video memory. Given the subtle moments of bottleneck I got with this higher configuration, I'm confident that 8GB is going to have a tough time right out of the gate.

MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB Review - DLSS 4 goes mainstream

It falls short of matching the RTX 4070Value drops when the price goes higher than $429 The GeForce RTX 50 Series launch has not been without issues, from hard-to-find stock to inflated pricing to problems with drivers affecting some gamers. We didn't run into any issues with the benchmarking process for this review of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti in reference-spec MSI Ventus 2X MSRP form - we're just hoping that pricing stays as close to the $379 for the 8GB and $429 for the 16GB GeForce RTX 5060 Ti as possible. And for good reason. As the flagship 60-Class GPU in the RTX Blackwell line-up, we're now beginning to see what the more mainstream and affordable options can do - cards that will end up outselling (quantity-wise) everything that we've seen up until now. A quick look at the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB Looking at the latest Steam Hardware Survey results, odds are people will be looking to upgrade from the GeForce RTX 30 or 20 Series, namely cards like the GeForce RTX 3060 and RTX 3060 Ti.

DOOM: The Dark Ages developer id Software shared a similar sentiment, adding that the arrival of DLSS was an 'inflection point' for PC game visuals and performance and on par with the arrival of dedicated GPUs and programmable shaders. With the arrival of the Blackwell generation and the GeForce RTX 50 Series, AI is now being used to accelerate programmable shaders with the brand-new RTX Neural Shaders. Yes, these are actual neural networks that use live game data, and the power of Tensor Cores to do everything from compress textures, render lifelike materials with a level of detail impossible to match using traditional rendering methods, and even use AI to partially trace rays and then infer "an infinite amount of rays and bounces for a more accurate representation of indirect lighting in the game scene." RTX Mega Geometry is incredible in its own right; it essentially increases a scene's geometry detail and complexity (triangles or polygons) by up to 100x. 100 times the detail, it's hard to wrap your head around - but the added benefit in a game like Alan Wake 2 is dramatically improving the performance of the game's Full Ray Tracing or Path Tracing mode. With DLSS 4 and RTX Neural Shaders, NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 Series and RTX Blackwell architecture (which includes the same AI optimizations as data center Blackwell) can be viewed as the turning point for PC gaming - the moment when AI becomes integral to everything from designing a game to programming and then finally rendering it on a 4K display to play. DLSS 4 includes more goodies than NVIDIA's highly touted new Multi Frame Generation technology, but let's start there. DLSS 3's version of Frame Generation has evolved with DLSS 4, powered by Blackwell hardware and software, and an innovative use of AI to generate frames 40% faster while using 30% less VRAM. Switching to a new model also means that Frame Generation and Multi-Frame Generation could soon come to GeForce RTX 20, 30, and RTX 40 Series owners. DLSS 4 benefits all GeForce RTX gamers. With the 5th Generation of Tensor Cores in the GeForce RTX 50 Series delivering 2.5X more AI performance, NVIDIA's latest GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs can execute five complex AI models - covering Super Resolution, Ray Reconstruction, and Multi Frame Generation in a couple of milliseconds. Part of the reason it happens so quickly is the addition of hardware Flip Metering, which shifts frame pacing to the Blackwell display engine. The result is frame rates of up to 4K at 240 FPS and higher, without stuttering issues. With up to 15 of every 16 pixels generated by AI, the result is up to 8X the performance when compared to native rendering or rasterized performance. DLSS Super Resolution and Ray Reconstruction are also switching to a new 'Transformer' model, with over double the parameters and four times the compute requirement. This is one of the most exciting aspects of the GeForce RTX 50 Series, as it pushes DLSS into a new realm of image quality and performance. The best part is that it will work on all GeForce RTX GPUs; however, there will be a performance hit compared to running it on an RTX 50 Series GPU. Already available in games, DLSS 4's Transformer model is another DLSS 2.0-like moment for the technology, and the results speak for themselves. Even better, DLSS 4 is integrated into the NVIDIA App with a new 'DLSS Override' feature that allows users to experience the latest tech without waiting for a patch or game update. DLSS 4 is built to be backward compatible, with 75 games and apps supported (so far). It doesn't stop there, as the new AI Management Processor (AMP) allows AI models to share the GPU with graphics workloads. As a result, expect to see digital humans in games alongside AI assistants like NVIDIA's Project G-Assist becoming more prevalent in the coming years. This filters down to the creator side, with AI assistants for streamers, who will also benefit from the GeForce RTX 50 Series' expanded creator features. RTX Blackwell introduces 4:2:2 chroma-sampled video encoding and decoding. The ninth-generation NVENC encoder also improves AV1 and HEVC quality. RTX Blackwell is a game changer for creators and editors, especially with the new low-voltage and cutting-edge GDDR7 memory that dramatically improves memory bandwidth and speed. Here's a look at the specs of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti compared to the previous generation's GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, GeForce RTX 4070, and GeForce RTX 5070. Without a process node shrink, the GeForce RTX 50 Series is a GPU generation that is not a massive upgrade over the previous RTX 40 Series generation. However, improvements to the Blackwell architecture and the move to cutting-edge GDDR7 memory have led to some notable gains. Looking at the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti specs, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti only features 5.9% more CUDA Cores, Tensor Cores, and RT Cores, and yet - per our benchmark results - it's 23.5% faster than the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti for 1440p gaming. Again, part of this is due to the faster GDDR7 memory and the 16GB of VRAM in the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB reviewed here. But with the latest generation of Tensor Cores and RT Cores and architectural changes to how Blackwell handles AI workloads like DLSS alongside rendering, keeping the same or similar custom TSMC 4N process isn't a roadblock toward meaningful generational gains. With a power rating of 180W, it's highly efficient compared to higher-end cards, making it an excellent option for SFF (small form factor) builds. For non-gaming workloads, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti benefits from all of the RTX Blackwell advancements. From FP4 support for AI that delivers 759 AI TOPS of performance, double that of the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, there's also the latest generation of encoders and decoders for content creators with 16GB of VRAM offering plenty of buffer for tasks. There's also the move to DisplayPort 2.1b with greater bandwidth for higher resolutions; however, gaming-wise, the RTX 5060 Ti isn't positioned as a 4K card and certainly not something you'd pair with an 8K display. Like the GeForce RTX 5070 and other RTX 50 Series GPUs, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is a card you can overclock to boost performance. However, the thermal design of each model will determine how this affects temperatures. As an MSRP model, the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB is OC-ready. However, we used stock settings for all benchmarks to gauge out-of-the-box performance and see how it runs when stressed. As we move into the more mainstream and popular GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU bracket, it's always exciting to see what a compact and lightweight card can do performance-wise. The MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB is the smallest twin-fan RTX 50 Series GPU we've reviewed so far and the lightest. Weighing in at 600 grams with a thickness of only 41mm, you're looking at a compact card perfect for even the smallest gaming PC. This isn't to say that MSI's Ventus design is cheap or flimsy, as you still have a sturdy metal backplate with vents to enhance airflow and cooling. It also ships with two of MSI's new STORMFORCE fans, which feature seven blades and a "claw texture" pattern designed to maximize airflow while keeping noise levels down. Our testing found that even when the fan speeds were around 2000 RPM, the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB was relatively quiet. When the temperature drops below a certain point, the fans stop for a truly silent performance when you're not gaming. As for the physical design, this is one of MSI's most minimal cards with no RGB lighting and a two-tone grey and black look. Outside of the prominent GeForce RTX and MSI logo branding, it has a clean and simple design that should suit most builds. Underneath the hood, you'll find a custom PCB with additional fuse protection, clay-based thermal pads, and other elements designed to protect the GPU and enhance heat transfer. Again, the most impressive thing here is its compact size and lightweight build. The Games and Tests PC gaming not only covers a wide range of genres and styles, from indie games with simple 2D graphics to massive 3D worlds lit by cutting-edge real-time ray tracing technology. With that, the needs and requirements of each gamer vary. High refresh rates and latency reduction become more important than flashy visuals or playing at the highest resolution possible for those who live and breathe fast-paced competitive games. For those who want to live in a cinematic world and become a key player in an expansive narrative, ray-tracing and high-fidelity visuals are a stepping stone toward immersion. Our chosen benchmarks cover various games, engines, APIs, and technologies. For the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, all tests are run at 1080p and 1440p and include results for performance-boosting Super Resolution technologies like NVIDIA DLSS 4 - including Frame Generation and the new Multi Frame Generation. In many ways, DLSS numbers are more important in 2025 than native rendering - a title with ray tracing isn't meant to be played without Super Resolution. Also, DLSS technologies like Ray Reconstruction and the new RTX Mega Geometry dramatically improve visual fidelity and detail compared to native rendering. However, our benchmark results are still sorted using 'raw performance' or native rendering. Here's the breakdown of games, settings, and what's being tested. NVIDIA's 60 Class GPUs have always targeted the mainstream gaming segment, focusing on delivering excellent performance at the popular 1080p resolution. From our testing, the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB is a card that also excels at 1440p, but looking at its 1080p performance, we see that it sits comfortably in between the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti and the GeForce RTX 4070. At this resolution, on average, the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB is 19% faster than the RTX 4060 Ti and 31% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti. It's also 42% faster than the RTX 4060, which is an impressive result, and 69% faster than the RTX 3060. As an upgrade for all these GPUs, this is the sort of performance uplift you immediately notice, especially for those with RTX 30 Series cards looking to upgrade. However, the GeForce RTX 4070 is 11% faster than the RTX 5060 Ti for 1080p gaming. That said, there are a couple of titles where the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB closely matches the RTX 4070's performance or beats it - Black Myth: Wukong, Cyberpunk 2077 without ray-tracing, and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2. Also, at this resolution, even though the GeForce RTX 5070 is around 29% faster on average - this is in line with the price increase. This means that the performance per dollar value of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is on par with the GeForce RTX 5070. Average Gaming Performance - 1440p Results As mentioned above, when looking at 60 Class GPUs from NVIDIA, the focus is often placed on 1080p gaming. However, the jump to 1440p is huge regarding the additional image quality you get with those extra pixels. This is one of the reasons 1440p is the fastest-growing resolution in the display market. For the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB, the good news is moving from 1080p to 1440p only means a 28.8% drop-off in raw performance and a 13.5% drop-off in performance when adding DLSS 4's Quality mode Super Resolution into the mix. DLSS 4's image quality is a game changer, so the 102 FPS average for the RTX 5060 Ti at this resolution means you're getting 'better than native' image quality and a notable 21% improvement in performance, on average, compared to native rendering. Delivered via AI and software, it's a testament to the importance of features like DLSS as a selling point, especially for more mainstream GPUs like the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. DLSS 4 wouldn't be able to do its thing without great raw performance, and thanks to the 16GB of VRAM, the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB is an excellent option for 1440p gamers. Here, its lead over the RTX 4060 Ti increases to 23.5%, with its lead over the RTX 3060 Ti rising to 33.3%. For RTX 3060 and RTX 4060 owners, you're looking at a massive uplift of 71% and 50%, respectively. However, the GeForce RTX 4070 is still 11.9% faster here, on average, and the GeForce RTX 5070 sees its lead increase to 34%. Benchmarks - 3DMark Synthetic Tests 3DMark offers a suite of synthetic benchmarks built to test GPUs in various scenarios. 3DMark Steel Nomad is a cutting-edge DirectX 12 benchmark with newer, modern rendering techniques designed to push GPUs to their limit. The 'Light' version tests at 1440p, while the main Steel Nomad benchmark tests pure native 4K rendering. Port Royal is a benchmark focusing exclusively on real-time ray tracing for lighting effects like reflections, shadows, and more. Looking at the Steel Nomad Light 1440p benchmark results, the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB's score is 15% higher than the RTX 4060 Ti, which is slightly lower than what we found in real-world gaming benchmarks. Still, it's close enough to present a realistic look at what to expect, with the score also being 30% higher than the RTX 3060 Ti and 47% higher than the RTX 4060. Looking at the Steel Nomad 4K results and the 16GB of VRAM helps keep performance within 12% of the RTX 4070 while increasing its lead over the RTX 4060 Ti to around 20%. The Port Royal ray-tracing benchmark results show that some of the most significant gains for the RTX 5060 Ti come with ray-tracing performance (check our breakdown of Path Tracing performance below). The score here is 22% higher than the RTX 4060 Ti and 41% higher than the RTX 3060 Ti. The result here is also 62% higher than the RTX 4060, making the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB an excellent option for playing games with ray-tracing enabled at 1080p and even 1440p in some cases. DLSS 4, Frame Generation, and the new Multi-Frame Generation DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation are impressive bits of technology, thanks mainly to the overall improvements to performance and latency on the Frame Generation side and the new 'Transformer' model for Super Resolution and Ray Reconstruction. We used the DLSS 'Quality' mode preset for these benchmarks, often delivering better-than-native image quality. DLSS 4 adds much value to the GeForce RTX 50 Series, with or without Multi Frame Generation. To stress the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB, we tested Cyberpunk 2077, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and Marvel Rivals at 1440p. Going from 32 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 with the RT Ultra preset to 162 FPS with DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation is impressive. The improved smoothness and latency is a night-and-day difference. This is where you see a 2X, 3X, and 4X improvement in performance; honestly, it's fantastic to see that the full DLSS 4 suite works exceptionally well with the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. In fact, for extra performance, you can use the DLSS 'Balanced' preset at 1440p because the image quality is still fantastic. Triple-digit 1440p gaming is not something we associate with 60 Class GPUs, and even though Frame Generation is not the same thing as native or even DLSS Super Resolution rendering, it's not a case of sacrificing image quality or latency for more frames. Path Tracing Performance - 1080p Path Tracing, or Full Ray Tracing, arrived with the GeForce RTX 40 Series and DLSS 3 and is leveling up with the GeForce RTX 50 Series and DLSS 4. It's only possible thanks to AI technologies like DLSS Super Resolution, Ray Reconstruction, and RTX Neural Shader technology like RTX Mega Geometry. It's designed specifically for these technologies, and we're only including native or rasterized performance to highlight just how intensive it is on a GPU like the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. In fact, outside of the massive increase in performance, these games also look notably worse without DLSS 4. It's pretty wild to think that even after five years, Cyberpunk 2077 is still one of the best-looking PC games out there and one of the most cutting-edge in terms of image quality and ray tracing. Here, we see one of the most significant gains when moving from the RTX 4060 Ti to the RTX 5060 Ti, with raw Path Tracing performance that is 45% faster. With DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation, you can easily hit 100+ FPS at 1080p with a smooth presentation, great image quality, and responsive controls. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, like Alan Wake 2 and Cyberpunk 2077, look stunning when you enable Full Ray Tracing. So much so that it makes the Xbox Series X version of the game look last-gen in terms of image fidelity and lighting. Running on a GeForce RTX 50 Series GPU, it's also one of the best performing Full Ray Tracing titles with the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB able to deliver close to 80 FPS without Frame Generation. With raw performance 27% faster than the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, Multi Frame Generation makes this shoot through the roof with 200+ FPS possible. We found that playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle at 1440p with the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB is also an option with the DLSS 4 'Balanced' preset and Multi Frame Generation delivering 100+ FPS. Temperature and Power Efficiency The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is the most power-efficient GPU in the RTX 50 Series line-up, with an average power draw hovering around 150W when gaming at 1440p - an impressive result. Running a stress test, we also found that MSI's compact Ventus 2X design runs cool, with a GPU temperature of around 62 degrees Celsius and fan speeds of around 40%. With an overclock of around +200 MHz to the boost clock speed of 2572 MHz and +200 MHz to the GDDR7 memory, we saw temperatures increase but not drastically so. Looking at a couple of titles, you can get an additional 5% more performance through overclocking using MSI Afterburner. Final Thoughts The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is here, and after testing our first 16GB model with the reference-specced MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB, we found it to be a fantastic option for 1440p gaming. With a generational uplift of 23.5%, it's the best 60-class GPU from NVIDIA since the Ampere generation. Best of all, RTX 3060 Ti, RTX 4060, and RTX 3060 owners, you're getting a sizable boost in performance - 33%, 50%, and a whopping 71%. And with DLSS 4 delivering exceptional image quality, the RTX 5060 Ti benefits from that 'free' performance uplift thanks to AI and software. It's even a card that can deliver max settings Path Tracing at 1080p for true cinematic gaming in titles like Alan Wake 2, Cyberpunk 2077, and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Of course, even though the $429 MSRP of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is notably lower than previous generations, this price doesn't include tariffs or regional import taxes. With the current state of the market seeing most new GeForce RTX and Radeon RX GPUs sold with a 30% price premium, the overall value of the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB will vary from country to country and person to person. Outside of that, our only complaint is that we would have liked to have seen the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X 16GB match the performance of the GeForce RTX 4070, as this would have made it one of NVIDIA's best 60 Class GPUs in years. It still is, but hey, we can dream. Perhaps stiff competition from RDNA 4 and the upcoming Radeon RX 9060 XT from AMD will push NVIDIA to go above and beyond next time around. It's also worth noting that we've also been testing MSI's premium overclocked Gaming Trio option. Based on what we've seen so far, the OC models for the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti close the gap between the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 4070 - but not entirely. In the end, MSI's MSRP Ventus 2X model is also worth celebrating as a compact and lightweight GPU with excellent thermal performance for its size.

NVIDIA Launches GeForce RTX 5060 Ti: Blackwell Architecture Comes to the Masses

NVIDIA has officially unveiled the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, the first card in its 60-class RTX 50 GPU family based on the Blackwell architecture. Designed to bring next-generation features like DLSS 4, Multi Frame Generation, and enhanced ray tracing capabilities to a wider audience, the RTX 5060 Ti aims to be the go-to upgrade for gamers still on older GPUs like the RTX 2060 or GTX 1660. This marks the beginning of the rollout for the RTX 5060 series, with the RTX 5060 Ti becoming available from April 16th, followed by the base RTX 5060 model and laptop variants in May. The RTX 5060 Ti brings the Blackwell GPU architecture's advanced capabilities to the mid-range market. Built with 4th generation Ray Tracing Cores and 5th generation Tensor Cores, the RTX 5060 Ti claims to deliver significant gains in both fidelity and performance, especially in games that support DLSS 4. Two configurations of the card are launching -- an 8GB GDDR7 variant priced at $379, and a 16GB version at $429. Both use a 128-bit memory interface and come equipped with 4608 CUDA cores, operating at a base clock of 2.41 GHz and boosting up to 2.57 GHz. Factory-overclocked and standard models will be available from board partners including ASUS, MSI, GIGABYTE, ZOTAC, Palit, INNO3D, and PNY. Central to the RTX 5060 Ti is NVIDIA's new DLSS 4 technology, which combines a transformer-based AI model with new rendering techniques like Multi Frame Generation, Ray Reconstruction, and DLSS Super Resolution. These neural rendering features can multiply frame rates by up to 8x compared to traditional rendering. In games like Hogwarts Legacy, users can expect improved image clarity, enhanced motion stability, and reduced input latency thanks to NVIDIA Reflex, which is now available in over 130 games. The card is said to offer double the frame rates when Multi Frame Generation is switched on compared to the RTX 4060 Ti in supported titles, while also cutting down latency to deliver a smoother and more responsive experience. Unfortunately, raster performance might not have improved significantly compared to the previous generation. Even in titles that don't yet support Multi Frame Generation, the card supposedly delivers performance gains of around 20% compared to the previous generation, particularly in graphically intensive games such as A Plague Tale: Requiem and Delta Force. NVIDIA claims that there are over 50 million GeForce gamers still using older 60-class and 50-class GPUs. For these users, the RTX 5060 Ti offers an appealing jump not only in raw performance but also in feature set. DLSS 4, real-time ray tracing, AV1 encode/decode, and faster video rendering make it an all-round upgrade not just for gaming but also for content creation and streaming. The card supports both NVIDIA's Game Ready and Studio Drivers, giving users flexibility depending on whether their focus is gaming or creative workflows.

It also includes support for AV1 hardware encode and decode, NVIDIA Reflex, Broadcast, G-SYNC, and more. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti will be available globally starting April 16th. Custom designs from NVIDIA's add-in board partners will vary in size, cooling solution, and factory overclocking, offering a range of SKUs to match different builds and budgets. The 16GB variant is expected to appeal to those who play at higher resolutions or with larger texture packs and mods, while the 8GB option will likely be sufficient for 1080p and entry-level 1440p gaming. Following the RTX 5060 Ti, NVIDIA will launch the base RTX 5060 desktop GPU in May, starting at $299. Featuring 3840 CUDA cores and 8GB of GDDR7 memory, it shares the same DLSS 4 and Blackwell core technologies as its Ti sibling. NVIDIA promises 100+ FPS at 1080p with ray tracing in major titles and even greater benefits in eSports games. Simultaneously, GeForce RTX 5060 laptops will debut at prices starting from $1099. These models promise over 2x the performance of their predecessors, pushing 100 FPS in ray-traced titles and over 300 FPS in competitive games. Thanks to Max-Q optimisations, laptops with the RTX 5060 will be available in ultra-thin designs, as slim as 14.9mm.

PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Stealth OC 16 GB GPU Review - MSRP Model With Good Cooling, Near-4070 Performance, Unique PCB

It's been two years since NVIDIA introduced its Ada Lovelace GPUs, kicking things off with the RTX 4090 and finishing up the initial lineup with the SUPER family At CES, the company unveiled its new RTX 50 "Blackwell" family which features a brand new architecture and several changes such as new cores, AI accelerators, new memory standards, and the latest video/display capabilities. Today, NVIDIA releases its 5th entry within its "RTX 50" portfolio, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is positioned in the mainstream segment, with the green team promising great value for gamers at a starting MSRP of $429 for the 16 GB models. Today, we will be trying out PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Stealth OC which is an MSRP model. With Blackwell, NVIDIA is going full-on into the AI segment with loads of optimizations & AI-specific accelerators. The Blackwell GPU does many traditional things that we would expect from a GPU, but simultaneously breaks the barrier when it comes to untraditional GPU operations. To sum up some features: The technologies mentioned above are some of the main building blocks of the Blackwell GPU, but there's more within the graphics core itself which we will talk about in detail so let's get started.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Unveiled: 16 GB For $429 & 8 GB For $379, Blackwell GB206 GPU, Up To 20% Faster Than 4060 Ti Natively & 2x With DLSS 4

NVIDIA has officially introduced its next RTX 50 Gaming GPU, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, which comes in 16 GB and 8 GB flavors. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Targets Entry-Level 1440p Gaming With Up To 16 GB VRAM, Blackwell GPU Architecture & Sub-$450 US Price NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50 series graphics cards have so far been available for over $500 US and that changes today with the RTX 5060 series, which promises to bring Neural Rendering prowess, & the DLSS 4 capabilities to mainstream audiences. These graphics cards are designed to offer over 100+ FPS in the most popular games at their targeted resolutions with DLSS 4 MFG (Multi-Frame-Gen) delivering a 2x gain in frame rate over the previous generation. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 series graphics cards are going to be a huge upgrade for the vast majority of gamers out there, since 50+ million gamers are still running older x60 and x50-class graphics cards based on the older Pascal (10 Series), Turing (20 Series) and Ampere (30 Series) architectures. With DLSS 4, gamers running an RTX 5060 or 5060 Ti can reach up to 50x graphics performance versus a GTX 1060 or GTX 1660 GPU. Furthermore, with the improvements made with DLSS 4's Transformer model, gamers can expect better image quality than native, along with higher performance and lower latency. The 5060 Ti sits at 2x the frame rate at similar or lower latency versus the 4060 Ti, which uses DLSS 3.x models. This has been verified across multiple AAA games, such as Hogwarts Legacy, Cyberpunk 2077, and Black Myth: Wukong.
