Nvidia confirms on-sale date for RTX 5060 GPU, setting up a possible showdown with AMD’s rumored RX 9060 XT

  • Nvidia has confirmed that the RTX 5060 desktop graphics card will be available on May 19, priced at $299 with 8GB of VRAM.
  • The announcement comes ahead of the rumored launch of AMD's RX 9060 XT, creating anticipation for a showdown in the mid-range GPU market.
  • The RTX 5060 will launch simultaneously for both desktops and laptops, with third-party versions expected, unlike a Founders Edition model from Nvidia.
  • Featuring 3,840 CUDA Cores and 145W power usage, the RTX 5060 offers a more affordable option compared to the Ti variant.
  • Concerns arise over the decision to equip the RTX 5060 with only 8GB of VRAM, potentially causing performance bottlenecks.
  • The lower PCIe lane support and reduced bandwidth for the RTX 5060 models could impact performance, especially for users with PCIe 4.0 or older motherboards.
  • Expected pricing for the RTX 5060 could exceed the $299 MSRP, affecting the appeal of the GPU, despite being positioned as a budget-friendly option.
  • Competition from AMD's RX 9060 XT, with potential 8GB and 16GB models, adds further complexity to the mid-range GPU market landscape.
  • The battle for dominance in the lower-mid-range segment intensifies as both Nvidia and AMD gear up for new GPU releases.
  • Consumers may face challenges in optimizing performance with the RTX 5060 due to VRAM limitations and PCIe compatibility issues.
