AMD today released to market the Radeon RX 9060 XT, its third graphics card model from the Radeon RX 9000 series, powered by RDNA 4 graphics architecture. This card debuts the new 4 nm "Navi 44" silicon, with over 2x the transistor count increase over the "Navi 33" chip powering the RX 7600. This is because AMD sized up the silicon for the singular purpose of winning in key sub-$400 price-points, against the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 series, specifically the RTX 5060, and the RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB. The RX 9060 XT comes in 8 GB and 16 GB models, with the 8 GB model priced at $300, clashing with the RTX 5060, and the 16 GB model priced at a competitive $350, undercutting the RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB, which starts at $380. For $30 less, AMD is offering twice the memory size, for future-proofing and lower ray tracing performance cost.

The RX 9060 XT maxes out the 4 nm "Navi 44," enabling all 32 CU, for 2,048 stream processors, 64 AI accelerators, 32 RT accelerators, and 128 TMUs, besides 64 ROPs. Each of the RDNA 4 RT accelerators comes with two intersection units, and several other hardware-level improvements, which is how the company is able to yield a near doubling in ray tracing performance over RDNA 3. AMD is sticking to GDDR6 as the memory standard, the RX 9060 XT gets 8 GB or 16 GB of 20 Gbps GDDR6 memory across a 128-bit memory bus, for 320 GB/s of bandwidth. This is low compared to the 448 GB/s NVIDIA achieved on the RTX 5060 series by switching to 28 Gbps GDDR7, but AMD claims that the memory management advancements it made with RDNA 4 should provide a generational uplift in memory sub-system performance. A purely partner-driven launch, the RX 9060 XT should be available as custom designs from ASUS, ASRock, GIGABYTE, Sapphire, PowerColor, XFX, and more.

ZOTAC silently added a new MAGNUS Mini-PC to its ZBOX E-Series that features a desktop-class GeForce RTX 5060 Ti GPU with 16 GB of GDDR7 with 128-bit bus interface paired with Intel Core Ultra 7 255H (16 Cores, 2 GHz up to 5.1 GHz) processor. The MAGNUS came in a compact 2.65 liters small form factor measuring 210 mm x 203 mm x 62.2 mm and is equipped with 16 GB of pre-installed DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM RAM that can be expanded up to 96 GB by using DDR5-6400 CSODIMM or DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM modules. The storage consist of a 1 TB M.2 NVMe SSD along with one more M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot available for expansion. The system supports up to four displays simultaneously through one HDMI 2.1 port and two DisplayPort 1.4a outputs, with the highest resolution being 7680 x 4320 at 60 Hz (120 Hz at 4K). The unit sports dual 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi 7 wireless networking (dual SMA antenna connectors available), along with Bluetooth 5.4, five USB 3.2 and two Thunderbolt 4 ports, and 8-channel audio support through HDMI.

The system comes with active cooling and an external 330 W power supply. ZOTAC offers multiple SKUs for the Magnus E-Series Mini-PC, including pre-configured models (ZBOX-EN75060TC-W4B/W5B) with Windows OS, 16 GB DDR5 memory, and 1 TB M.2 NVMe SSD pre-installed, as well as a barebone model (ZBOX-EN75060TC) that allows users to configure their own memory and storage options.

NVIDIA has quietly released a firmware patch for its GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti graphics cards to fix a frustrating blank-screen issue that appears when users restart their systems. Interestingly, this reboot glitch affects only the RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti models built on NVIDIA's GB206 silicon. Other RTX 50-series cards and the older RTX 20, RTX 30, and RTX 40 generations do not show this behavior. While NVIDIA has not revealed exactly what went wrong, providing a vBIOS patch suggests the issue lies in its own firmware code. This update is delivered as a vBIOS upgrade rather than a traditional driver, and it must be applied manually using NVIDIA's new GPU UEFI Firmware Update Tool v2.0. The problem seems to come from the way the RTX 5060 series vBIOS communicates with certain motherboard BIOS or UEFI implementations.

On systems booting in Legacy (CSM) mode or those lacking full UEFI support, users sometimes encounter a black screen on reboot even if the operating system and drivers are correctly installed. NVIDIA's utility first checks if you need the update, then walks you through the flashing process step by step. Because flashing firmware always carries some risk, especially if your power goes out mid-update, NVIDIA recommends that only those experiencing blank screens should proceed. Before you start, power down your PC completely, make sure you have the latest BIOS from your motherboard maker and switch to UEFI boot mode. If you still cannot get any display, try plugging it into your integrated graphics or a second GPU so you can run the update tool. After closing all your applications and pausing any pending OS updates, follow the on-screen prompts to apply the vBIOS fix. If your motherboard does not support UEFI mode, contact your graphics card vendor for a legacy firmware version.

Besides mini PCs and laptops, Colorful's Computex 2025 display had much more to show. The star of the show is an interesting COLORFIRE MEOW Series PC, which blends retro gaming nostalgia with modern performance. It is a microATX chassis, finished in white and orange, featuring Bobi cat graphics and paw print accents. Measuring 470 × 244 × 370 mm and housing a COLORFIRE B650M MEOW WiFi motherboard alongside a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti MEOW-ORG 16 GB graphics card, it is covered in thematic Bobi cat yellow prints. Everything from the motherboard to the case, even the AIO, follows a white and yellow design.

AMD at Computex 2025 announced the new Radeon RX 9060 XT mid-range graphics card. The card is designed to offer maxed out gaming at 1080p, with ray tracing enabled, and lets you take advantage of new features such as FSR 4 and the upcoming FSR "Project Redstone" feature-set. The card comes in two variants, the RX 9060 XT 16 GB, priced at $350, and the RX 9060 XT 8 GB, priced at $300. Both models are based on the 4 nm "Navi 44" silicon, which they both max out in terms of on-die components. The GPU is based on the RDNA 4 graphics architecture, and comes with 32 CU (compute units), which works out to 2,048 stream processors, 64 AI accelerators, 32 RT accelerators, 128 TMUs, and possibly 64 ROPs. The chip features a 128-bit wide GDDR6 memory interface, the company didn't reveal memory speeds. Both models come with a total board power value of 180 W. The company claims that the RX 9060 XT 16 GB offers up to 821 peak AI TOPS (INT4).

AMD also put out some first party performance claims. The company claims that the RX 9060 XT 16 GB, should beat the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB by 6% on average, tested across 40 game titles, at 1440p. The RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB has an MSRP of $380, making the RX 9060 XT 16 GB cheaper by $30, and as a result, have a 15% performance-per-Dollar edge. The company did not put out any performance claims for the RX 9060 XT 8 GB model. Given that NVIDIA is not developing a 16 GB model of the new RTX 5060 (non-Ti), and its $300 price, things could get interesting for AMD, especially if its claim that the RX 9060 XT 16 GB will be the fastest current-gen GPU under $350 holds. Both the 16 GB and 8 GB variants of the Radeon RX 9060 XT should be available on June 5, 2025.

Maxsun is getting ready to release new graphics cards at Computex 2025, starting with the newly and highly expected entry-level RTX 5060 series that NVIDIA just announced and continuing with some fresh models of its iCraft AIGA series. One of the first that we noticed is the MS GeForce RTX 5060 LP 8G (8 GB 128-bit GDDR7), a low-profile, two-slot version measuring 182 x 69 x 38 mm. This particular implementation uses for cooling three 5 cm fans in combination with a heatsink and dual heat-pipes. The card is powered by a standard 8-pin connector and sports 2x DisplayPort and 2x HDMI output connectors. Still in the RTX 5060 series, we also noticed Maxsun's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti iCraft OC16G AIGA X2 Classic graphics card. This card comes in a more compact format measuring 252 x 124 x 43 mm, is equipped with 16 GB GDDR7 memory and sports two 9 cm fans with intelligent fan control technology and a heatsink with three heat pipes. The design follows Maxsun iCraft AIGA theme and includes iCraft Skylight RGB lighting for a more appealing aesthetics.

In the same iCraft AIGA series, Maxsun's lineup included the RTX 5070 iCraft OC12G AIGA and the RTX 5080 iCraft OC16G AIGA Plus running at 2295 MHz (2617 MHz Boost). The RTX 5070 uses three 9 cm fans with six heat pipes for cooling while for the RTX 5080 Maxsun opted for three 10 cm fans. However, Maxsun products are currently restricted to the Chinese market, so we will not be seeing any of them at Western retailers.

MSI at the 2025 Computex brought several new innovations to its graphics card product stack. To begin with, the company unveiled its Retro line of graphics cards that bring back to life board designs from at least 10-15 years ago. A case in point is the new GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB Twin Frozr 2025 OC, which features a cooler that visually resembles the Twin Frozr II cooler from around 2012. There's also the RTX 5060 Cyclone, a card with an aluminium fin bagel cooling solution, a cooler design MSI used in the mid-late 2000s—almost 20 years ago!

Next up, is the GeForce RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 SUPRIM TITANIUM. This card is possibly MSI's answer to the ASUS ROG Astral Dhahab Edition, but with higher market availability. It features a-two-tone gold+titanium cooler shroud all around. The topside around the fans in particular has a very decadently textured matte finish that feels like a piece of jewellery in person. Lastly, the company showed us its RTX 5080 Expert graphics card. This card targets creators as much as it does gamers, and features a cooler design similar to NVIDIA's FE Double Axial Flow-through. Unlike the RTX 40-series Expert graphics cards, MSI claims to have worked extensively to improve the cooling performance and noise levels of its RTX 50-series Expert cards.More pictures follow.

Certain Lenovo Legion pre-built gaming rigs are equipped with intriguing custom graphics card designs; reportedly not available to purchase as (separate) retail packages. As mentioned back in March, the system integrator's Legion 9000K gaming systems were configurable with slick metallic GeForce RTX 5090D and GeForce RTX 5080 options. At the time, Lenovo China hinted about a forthcoming GeForce RTX 5070 offering; also making use of a CNC-machined metal shroud and backplate. Since then, VideoCardz has kept a watchful eye on new product developments—an early April "official" leak suggested an eventual arrival of lower-end GeForce RTX 50-series "Blackwell" Legion models.

As of late last week, Lenovo China's social media accounts have unveiled cheaper Legion 7000K and GeekPro pre-built systems. These new-gen gaming PCs house the brand's fresh GeForce RTX 5070 12 GB (as promised) and GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB custom cards. VideoCardz reckons that company engineers have adhered to NVIDIA's reference specifications, so potential customers will be considering non-overclocked hardware. The Legion 7000K—starting at 11,999 RMB (~$1658 USD)—traditionally-proportioned enclosure can accommodate a longer card design; as demonstrated by promo shots. The tastefully ARGB-lit Legion GeForce RTX 5070 card's oblong format (2.5-slot) utilizes only two fans. In contrast, Lenovo's compact GeekPro—starter price: 7199 RMB (~$995 USD)—case seems to be formed around a stubbier graphics card volume; still large enough to be dual-fan. Its ridged backplate aesthetic brings previous-gen XFX to mind.

AMD and a select bunch of its board partners are set to launch Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12 GB graphics card models tomorrow; starting as exclusives for China's PC gaming hardware market. Just before an unleashing of retail stock, local media outlets have published reviews—mostly covering brand-new ASUS, Sapphire, and XFX products. The RDNA 4 generation's first "Great Radeon Edition" (GRE) is positioned as a slightly cheaper alternative to Team Red's Radeon RX 9070 (non-XT) 16 GB model; 4199 RMB versus 4499 RMB (respectively, including VAT). In general, Chinese evaluators seem to express lukewarm opinions about the Radeon RX 9070 GRE's value-to-performance ratio. After all, this is a cut-down design—a "reduced" Navi 48 chip makes do with 3072 Stream Processors. The card's 12 GB of GDDR6 VRAM configuration is paired up with a 192-bit memory interface.

Carbon Based Technology's video review presented benchmark results that placed AMD's new contender on par with a previous-gen card: Radeon RX 7900 GRE 16 GB. Considering that this RDNA 3 era Golden Rabbit Edition (GRE) model launched globally with an MSRP of $549, its Navi 48 XL GPU-based descendant's ~$580 (USD) guide price appears to be mildly nonsensical. GamerSky pitched their ASUS ATS RX 9070 GRE MEGALODON OC sample against mid-range and lower level current-gen NVIDIA gaming products: ""through testing, we can find that at 4K resolution, the GeForce RTX 5070 12 GB performs the best, 5% higher than the ASUS RX 9070 GRE Megalodon. As the resolution decreases, its lead also decreases, and at 2K resolution it is only 2% higher. At 1080p resolution, the difference is only 1%. At the same time, compared with RTX 5060 Ti 16G, ASUS RX 9070 GRE Megalodon has a greater advantage. The performance of its competitor's RTX 5060 Ti 16G is only 77% of that of RX 9070 GRE at 4K and 2K resolutions. At 1080p, its performance increased slightly to 79%." AMD and involved AIBs could be testing the waters with an initial Chinese market exclusive release, but Western news outlets reckon that a more aggressive pricing strategy is needed for a (potential) proper global rollout of Radeon RX 9070 GRE cards.

The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is ready to power incredible performance in the games of today and tomorrow.

A few weeks ago, we reported on AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT, which is scheduled to come right after this year's Computex show. Some early leaks have pointed to the existence of two Radeon RX 9060 XT variants: one with 16 GB of GDDR6 VRAM and another with an 8 GB GDDR6 capacity. Recent rumors have begun speculating that the 8 GB card is not coming at all, which BenchLife now debunks. According to the publication: "As for the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 8 GB version, we have reliable sources telling us that there is currently no plan to stop supply or cancel it. As for the news from the market, it is just a rumor. The main reason is as mentioned earlier, it is entirely due to the reaction to the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti."

The 8 GB version of NVIDIA's latest GeForce RTX 5060 Ti wasn't well received. It wasn't even supplied to reviewers, and out own review was delayed as we waited to buy a card off the shelf. TechPowerUp's reviewer W1zzard confirmed that "If you want ray tracing, then RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB is your best option, and of course anything upcoming from AMD in that price bracket—we've been hearing rumors about an RX 9060 Series after Computex, an RX 9070 GRE is also likely, but both are unknowns in terms of performance and pricing." Perhaps if AMD can price this 8 GB card aggressively, it will receive praise from consumers. If not, it will be a turning point for the mid-range PC gamers, who now demand more VRAM for their cards so they are not left behind with future title releases, especially as they become more demanding.

Last week, COLORFUL introduced an impressive selection of GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 models—across Advanced, iGame, Ultra W and NB product lines. Barring their "youthful" graffiti-decorated iGame options, the Chinese manufacturer's brand-new lineup largely consisted of very sober looking affairs. Earlier in the week, VideoCardz noticed that COLORFUL had updated its native website with two new entries; under the company's COLORFIRE sub-brand. Previous generation MEOW Series graphics cards debuted almost two years ago; starting with custom GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB and RTX 4060 8 GB models.

Beyond making brightly-colored graphics card designs, COLORFIRE's MEOW product line consists of equally "loud" motherboards, cases, laptops and peripherals. COLORFIRE's new generation MEOW desktop graphics cards—available in GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB or 8 GB configurations—have appeared with a new triple-fan shroud and backplate design. The 2.5-slot thick enclosure seems to house reference spec-conforming hardware. VideoCardz expects these fairly basic white/orange offerings to launch "at or near" baseline MSRP. It is refreshing to see the emergence of another feline pet/mascot-themed product; as opposed to the recent dearth of cute "idol" or "waifu"-decorated options. Nearby rival manufacturers—including ASUS, Yeston, and ZOTAC—have resorted to utilizing such clichéd marketing tactics.

NVIDIA's latest GeForce 576.02 WHQL driver, released on April 16, which brought support for the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, appears to deliver unexpected performance gains for several "Blackwell" GeForce RTX 50 series GPUS in UL's 3DMark Steel Nomad benchmark. ComputerBase community users with RTX 5070, 5070 Ti, and 5080 GPUs reported three to eight percent score uplifts after upgrading, prompting ComputerBase to verify these claims under controlled conditions. Their independent testing confirms that the RTX 5080 jumps from 8,094 to 8,550 points (a 5.6 percent boost), the RTX 5070 Ti climbs from 6,463 to 6,932 points (7.3 percent), and the RTX 5070 improves from 4,838 to 5,242 points (8.4 percent).

By contrast, the flagship RTX 5090 sees only a marginal lift from 14,032 to 14,117 points, which is well within standard test variance, while the RTX 5060 Ti remains essentially unchanged at roughly 3,530 points, likely because it launched with an up-to-date driver. When evaluating other popular UL benchmarks, namely Speed Way and Time Spy, ComputerBase observed no measurable uplift from driver version 576.02. In fact, some Time Spy runs dipped slightly, underlining that the anomaly appears confined to Steel Nomad's specific workload. It's important to note that synthetic benchmarks do not always translate directly to in-game performance. Historical data from ComputerBase's GPU suite suggests Blackwell cards sometimes outperform their synthetic gains in actual titles, but results vary by engine and title. Besides RTX 5060 Ti support and a strange performance increase, the 576.02 WHQL fixes a host of game‑specific crashes, stutters, aliasing, and stability issues across titles like Fortnite, Overwatch 2, Hellblade II, Control, and more.

MSI unveiled its new lineup of AI gaming desktops featuring NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series graphics cards, from the powerful RTX 5090 to the recently released RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060. The GeForce RTX 50 Series significantly enhances both gaming and AI task performance in these new systems. Gamers can expect higher frame rates in demanding titles, while content creators will benefit from faster rendering times and improved AI-assisted workflows.

The integration of NVIDIA DLSS 4 technology is a standout feature across the lineup. DLSS 4 delivers significantly faster frame rates and superior image quality for all RTX 50 Series systems, ensuring MSI gaming desktops provide responsive gameplay and immersive visual experiences. These advancements allow the new gaming systems to deliver exceptional performance in the latest titles while handling demanding AI tasks with ease.

NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB graphics card design received little fanfare when review embargoes lifted mid-way through the working week. Reportedly by official instruction, involved board partners sent out 16 GB samples to evaluators. Multiple Western outlets are currently attempting to source GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB cards—on their own dime—including TechPowerUp. As mentioned in his conclusive rundown of PALIT's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Infinity 3 16 GB model, W1zzard commented on this situation: "personally, I'm very interested in my results for the RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB, which I'm trying to buy now." The ever reliable harukaze5719 has already stumbled upon one such review. Yesterday, Carbon-based Technology Research Institute (CBTRI) uploaded their findings onto the Chinese bilibili video platform.

Two ASUS options were compared to each other: an 8 GB Hatsune Miku Special Edition card, and a better known property: PRIME RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB. In most situations the two variants perform similarly. A clear difference was demonstrated when CBTRI's lab test moved into a DLSS 4 with Multi-Frame Generation (MFG) phase. Both harukaze5719 and Tom's Hardware noted a significant gulf—the latter's report observed: "in Cyberpunk 2077, for example, the RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB inexplicably performed worse than the RTX 4060 Ti 8 GB at native 1440p resolution. While enabling MFG helped improve performance, pushing it to 4x delivered underwhelming results, with the 16 GB version providing 22% higher performance than the 8 GB card." Rumors have swirled about the late arrival of GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB cards at retail; potentially a week after the launch of 16 GB siblings. As evidenced by early results, potential buyers should consider paying a little extra ($50) for a larger pool of VRAM. Team Green's introductory material outlined starter price tags of $429 (16 GB) and $379 (8 GB).

GIGABYTE's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti EAGLE OC graphics card model was officially unveiled on Tuesday (April 15). Two days later, the manufacturer's PR team disclosed extra in-depth details—a hype-up section stated: "(our) EAGLE series features a design inspired by the fusion of aerospace battleships and sci-fi elements, making it a preferred choice for sci-fi enthusiasts and younger users...These graphics cards are more than just components—they become battleships within the system, enhancing the overall aesthetic and immersive experience.⁠" Yesterday's press release did not delve into under-the-hood information, but reviewers have discovered that GIGABYTE's engineering department has bunged an extra short PCB design into the new-gen EAGLE's dual-fan enclosure.

Germany's HardwareLuxx received samples for evaluation purposes—directly from three brands: the aforementioned GeForce RTX 5060 Ti EAGLE OC 16 GB SKU, as well as MSI's GAMING TRIO model, and PALIT's Infinity 3 card. The site's editor—Andreas Schilling—was enchanted by the EAGLE's diminutive setup; both externally and internally. As explained at the beginning of HardwareLuxx's review, a main highlight is the brand-new product's size: "at 215 mm, the card is particularly short. Also striking is the 8-pin connector located directly behind the slot cover—an unusual position for the additional power supply. Equally striking is the short PCI Express connector. Since the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti features a PCI Express interface with eight lanes, Gigabyte eliminates the need for a longer PCB and shortens the connector accordingly." GIGABYTE has likely deployed its dinky PCB layout in new WINDFORCE (standard and overclocked) options. VideoCardz believes that the shorter design is reserved for dual-fan cards. By rule of thumb, triple-fan cooled cards are available with the regular length board and connector. Even GIGABYTE's upcoming GeForce RTX 5060 OC Low Profile 8G (182 mm) model sticks with a "full-sized" PCIe interface.

As expected, NVIDIA lifted its GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card review embargo earlier today (April 16)—TechPowerUp's audience can check out W1zzard's opening day evaluations of six board partner models here. Just ahead of publishing its own verdict, Hardware Unboxed uploaded a video that leveled mild criticism in the direction of Team Green decision makers. VideoCardz swiftly picked up on the Australian PC hardware media outlet's accusations—in summary, only GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB models were made available to reviewers and influencers. Hardware Unboxed's Tim Schiesser elaborated on circumstances: "while the launch is claimed to be the same day for the two variants, NVIDIA is only sampling the 16 GB card for reviews, so that is what will be covered on launch day. But it goes beyond that because we've been told that AIBs will not be supplying the 8 GB card for reviews and, in fact, cannot supply the 8 GB card for reviews. Despite NVIDIA giving us permission to source 8 GB models for day one reviews, board partners told us they were unable to send us a graphics card in some cases because they weren't ready, but in other cases because NVIDIA had explicitly prevented them from doing so."

Day old press material adverted a simultaneous launch of both variants, but the ($379 MSRP) cheaper option seems to be delayed. An official source disclosed news about this release date anomaly to Schiesser and colleagues: "NVIDIA told us the 8 GB card is coming slightly later, perhaps a week or so after the 16 GB card ($429 MSRP), which would make it launch on a different day. But despite this, they both have the same launch day. Hard to know what's going on there." Additionally, Hardware Unboxed and other news outlets detected mixed messages during Team Green press liaisons—earlier messages focused on 16 GB and 8 GB getting equal billing around launch time. According to follow-up reports, a recent Q&A session indicated the sudden prioritization of GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB models. As of yesterday evening, VideoCardz detected media talk regarding a surprising lifting of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 (non-Ti) review embargo. They outlined curious conditions: "GeForce RTX 5060 is supposed to launch in May, (but) will have its review embargo lifted on April 16; the same day as the RTX 5060 Ti. Yes, that means the RTX 5060 won't have official review coverage, and basically, whoever can source the card before launch will not even break the embargo by sharing the results." As covered by TechPowerup's news team, yesterday's Team Green PR blurb was headlined by the "game changing" GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB card and its $299 starting price tag.

GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co. Ltd, a leading manufacturer of premium gaming hardware, today launched the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti (16 GB and 8 GB variants) and RTX 5060 series graphics cards powered by NVIDIA Blackwell architecture. The RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 are relatively mid-range products that focus on 2k and 1080p gameplay, and cater to the needs of gamers, creators, and light AI developers for daily use. GIGABYTE offers a variety of air-cooled graphics cards, allowing users to choose the best option. Depending on the model, AORUS ELITE, GAMING, AERO, EAGLE, EAGLE ICE, WINDFORCE, and low-profile graphics cards support either the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti series or RTX 5060 GPUs.⁠

GIGABYTE has upgraded the WINDFORCE cooling system for the new generation, balancing performance and thermal efficiency. The new Hawk Fan design minimizes turbulence and noise, achieving up to a 53.6% increase in air pressure and a 12.5% boost in air volume while keeping the lower acoustics. To enhance cooling efficiency, server-grade thermal conductive gel is applied to critical components such as VRAM and MOSFETs. This highly deformable, non-fluid gel ensures optimal contact even on uneven surfaces and remains resistant to deformation caused by transport or prolonged use. Paired with advanced thermal solutions—including an optimal heatsink with a copper plate for direct GPU contact, and composite copper heat-pipes—these graphics cards deliver exceptional cooling performance and whisper-quiet operation, even under intensive workloads.

Earlier today, NVIDIA's public relations department published their "GeForce RTX 5060 Desktop Family" introductory article. Curiously, the company's brand-new GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics cards do not headline Team Green's "dedicated" PR release—instead, the general "game changing" GeForce RTX 5060 series is advertised with a starting price point of $299. Clarification arrives several paragraphs deep into the blurb—as explained with some "PR" magic: "starting April 16th, we're bringing DLSS 4 and Blackwell's suite of innovations to every gamer with the launch of the GeForce RTX 5060 desktop family, beginning with the release of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. And in May, the GeForce RTX 5060 arrives, with prices starting at $299." Very specific cost of ownership digits leaked last week; indicating a refreshing reduction over earlier (disappointing) predictions.

Team Green's publicity team has confirmed starting MSRPs of $429 for 16 GB models, and $379 for 8 GB variants. These official numbers are buried three-quarters of the way into NVIDIA's PR document. Older evidence pointed to a possible repeat of lower end GeForce RTX 40-series guide prices—as it turns out, the GeForce RTX 5060 card's $299 "cost of entry" aligns with its predecessor's launch figure. Based on leaked pre-built PC listings, industry watchdogs deduced the $299 MSRP earlier on in the month. Additionally, Team Green's PR material teased the upcoming launch of related mobile hardware: "the same features, innovations and advantages of the GeForce RTX 5060 desktop family are coming to laptops this May, when GeForce RTX 5060 laptops arrive on shop shelves, starting at $1099." Real life scenario prices are expected to remain "sky-high," even for rumored cheaper devices—equipped with GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile GPUs.
