The first RTX 5060 TI RTX cards have been available since April 16 (but as always, stocks are almost nonexistent). Two versions disembark: one with 8 GB of video memory at € 399 ($ 299), the other with 16 GB at € 449 ($ 349). Nvidia will then launch the RTX 5060 in May, at 299 dollars (the Price in euros was not communicated), still with 8 GB of VRAM.
Cards cut for the 1080p and the DLSS 4
On paper, the RTX 5060 TI has 4.608 cuda cores, a boost frequency at 2.57 GHz and a consumption of 180 watts. The simple version, less muscular (3,840 cards Cuda, 145 watts), also aims at 1080p, while focusing on the same techno: the DLSS 4 and the famous multi frame Generation, which can quadruple the images per second.
Nvidia announces solid performance, with games like Cyberpunk 2077 (148 fps), Hogwarts Legacy (234 fps) or Marvel Rivals (330 FPS) which turn the balloons thoroughly – provided you activate the right settings.
Where some are already grinking teeth is on the side of memory. Another 8 GB? In 2025? Yes. And Nvidia assumes: ” You have to compromise “Explains Justin Walker, GeForce product manager. “” We try to find the right price-performance report ».
Admittedly, modern games consume a lot of memory, but according to Nvidia, the real impact on performance would not be as critical as some people say. And to calm the spirits, the brand recalls that the previous cards – such as the RTX 2060 or the 3060 – were more expensive when they are launched. “” At $ 299, it’s a good deal “Consulates Justin Walker.
Be careful however: no Founders Edition version this time. Nvidia leaves its partners (MSI, Asus, Zotac, etc.) fix prices. Result: it may not be so easy to find the RTX 5060 at $ 299, especially with the uncertainty of customs tariffs on the American side.
Finally, Nvidia also thought of nomadic players. From May, laptops equipped with an RTX 5060 (laptop version) will be offered from $ 1,099. On the program: performance gain, Ray Tracing, DLSS 4 and even 8K video editing for creatives. At the end of the day, it is an accessible and modern range which will not be unanimous. The DLSS 4 does the show, but the 8 GB of Vorm may be fair for certain titles in the medium term.
