If you've been waiting to see what Nvidia comes up with after the successful RTX 40 series, you've got something to look forward to. The RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti aren't monstrous models for high-end gamers, but that's what makes them such an interesting product. They're aimed at those of you looking for solid performance for 1080p or even 1440p gaming without having to dig deep into your pockets. And honestly, who doesn't want a little extra performance these days without having to take out a loan?
What will you find inside?
The RTX 5060 Ti will offer two varianty – 8GB and 16GB versions, both with GDDR7 memory. The core beats 4 CUDA cores, boost up to 608 GHz and memory bandwidth of 2,57 GB/s. The base model RTX 448 then arrives with 5060 CUDA cores and 3 GB GDDR840. The Blackwell architecture guarantees lower consumption and higher efficiency at the same time. And even though it may seem like a small thing on paper, you will really feel the difference when playing.
NVIDIA's latest graphics card, the GeForce RTX 5060 Series, has launched. The GeForce RTX 5060 desktop GPUs are already available, and the RTX 5060 laptop models will arrive this May, starting at $1,099.

DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation is one feature that could change the way you experience gaming. If you don't know what it is, the card uses artificial intelligence to render only some frames and "guess" the rest. The result? Smooth as a dream. And what's great is that even without it, Nvidia promises 20-25% more performance than the previous generation. This is definitely not just a cosmetic upgrade.
The RTX 5060 Ti will be available from April 16th, the 8GB version starts at $379, the 16GB varianta at $429. The cheaper RTX 5060 will arrive in May and will cost you $299. That's a pretty fair offer these days, especially considering what the card can do.

If you were hoping that Nvidia would also offer its official Founders Edition, we have to disappoint you. These models will only be available through partner manufacturers such as MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte and others. On the other hand, these brands often offer their own cooling or factory overclocking, which can be an advantage.
What about players on the go?
The great news is that the RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti are coming to laptops soon. Starting in May, you'll be able to get laptops with these chips, ideal for gamers and content creators who want mobility without compromise. Prices will start at $1 and should be relatively affordable, at least in today's market context.
