Unleashing the Power: NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti
NVIDIA Unveils GeForce RTX 5060 Ti: Affordable Access to Blackwell Architecture
Get ready to level up your gaming experience! NVIDIA has unleashed the RTX 5060 Ti, the initial offering in the RTX 50 GPU family, built upon the advanced Blackwell architecture.
The RTX 5060 Ti targets gamers who are still rocking older GPUs such as the RTX 2060 or GTX 1660, offering next-gen features like DLSS 4, Multi Frame Generation, and enhanced ray tracing capabilities. Here's what you can expect from this game-changer, available from April 16th!
RTX 5060 Ti: The People's GPU
The RTX 5060 Ti brings the power of the Blackwell GPU to the masses. Coupled with 4th gen Ray Tracing Cores and 5th gen Tensor Cores, the RTX 5060 Ti promises noticeable performance improvements in graphically demanding games that support DLSS 4.
Two configurations of the card will be released: the standard 8GB GDDR6 model priced at $379, and a beefier 16GB version for $429, catering to different budgets and gaming preferences. Either way, both models offer 4608 CUDA cores, a 128-bit memory interface, and clock speeds starting at 2.41 GHz, boosting up to 2.57 GHz.
Expect custom designs from notable brands like ASUS, MSI, GIGABYTE, ZOTAC, Palit, INNO3D, and PNY, ensuring you'll find a perfect fit for your setup.
The Spotlight on DLSS 4
The RTX 5060 Ti centers around NVIDIA's innovative DLSS 4 technology. By combining an AI model with advanced rendering techniques like Multi Frame Generation, Ray Reconstruction, and DLSS Super Resolution, DLSS 4 offers frame rate boosts of up to 8x compared to traditional rendering methods.
In games like Hogwarts Legacy, the RTX 5060 Ti provides enhancing effects such as improved image clarity, motion stability, and reduced input latency, thanks to NVIDIA Reflex, now available in over 130 games. Plus, when Multi Frame Generation is enabled, the card delivers double the frame rates compared to the RTX 4060 Ti in supported titles, along with cutting down latency for a smoother, more responsive gaming experience.
While raster performance may not have seen a significant improvement from the last generation, the RTX 5060 Ti still promises around 20% performance gains in historically demanding games like A Plague Tale: Requiem and Delta Force.
RTX 5060 Ti Right in Your Hands
For the over 50 million GeForce gamers still using older 60-class or 50-class GPUs, the RTX 5060 Ti offers an exciting upgrade clad with features such as DLSS 4, real-time ray tracing, AV1 encode/decode, and faster video rendering. This well-rounded upgrade is a game changer not just for gaming, but for content creation and streaming as well.
Whether you're focused on gaming or creative workflows, the RTX 5060 Ti has got you covered. The card is compatible with both NVIDIA's Game Ready and Studio Drivers, ensuring utmost flexibility for your workload.
The RTX 5060 Ti supports DisplayPort 2.1 with UHBR20 bandwidth and HDMI, enabling high refresh rate gaming at 4K and beyond. It also offers support for AV1 hardware encode and decode, NVIDIA Reflex, Broadcast, G-SYNC, and more.
Getting Your Hands on RTX 5060 Ti
Stay tuned for the global release of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti starting April 16th. Board partners will roll out custom designs boasting various sizes, cooling solutions, and factory-overclocked variants, ensuring a suitable option for every gamer.
The 16GB variant targets those who prefer high-resolution gaming or heavier texture packs and mods, while the 8GB model will likely suffice for 1080p and entry-level 1440p gaming.
What's Next?
NVIDIA will follow up the RTX 5060 Ti with the base RTX 5060 desktop GPU in May, starting at $299, packing 3840 CUDA cores and 8GB of GDDR7 memory. Stay tuned for more details! Additionally, GeForce RTX 5060 laptops are set to debut at budget-friendly prices from $1099, promising double the performance of their predecessors and slim Max-Q designs.
Stay tuned for more updates and unparalleled gaming experiences with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti! Happy gaming!
