On Tuesday, Nvidia showed off the $300 GeForce RTX 5060 and $430 5060 Ti.
The RTX 5060 Ti is the real star of the show.
The one with more memory, or RAM, is going to work much better for higher resolutions.
Nvidia’s RTX 5060 Ti will come from multiple brands, including Asus, PNY, Sapphire, and more© Nvidia
The cheaper Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 will launch sometime in May.
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 Nvidias own RTX 5070 for best graphics card for 1440p.
Thats mostly due to the limited VRAM which is necessary for processing higher-quality textures.
The next step up with the 5070 is 988 AI TOPS.
The RTX 5070 hits 94 TFLOPS.
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.
For lower-end graphics cards, the competition has never been more fierce.
Last year, Inteldebuted its Battlemage seriesof graphics processors that competed in the $200 to $300 range.
Its one to watch, especially if GPU stock issues persist.
Both versions launch April 16.
So its time to see to it you have comfy shoes for the line at Microcenter.
