Nvidia announces RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti graphics cards

Starting with the more powerful RTX 5060 Ti, this model features the GB206 die with 4608 CUDA cores. It features 2.57GHz boost clock and 2.41GHz base clock. Like the 4060 Ti, you get a choice of 16GB and an abysmal 8GB video memory options, this time in GDDR7 and clocked at 28Gbps with a 128-bit bus. The card has 180W power limit for both memory options.

Then there’s the RTX 5060, which also features the same GB206 die but with 3840 CUDA cores. It has a 2.5GHz boost clock and 2.28GHz base clock. Unlike the 5060 Ti, the 5060 only offers the single 8GB GDDR7 option, which makes it all the more depressing in 2025. It consumes 145W of power, which is a decent bit higher than the 115W consumed by the 4060 so it may not be as suitable for ultra-small form-factor PCs as the 4060.

Both cards run on the new Blackwell architecture and built on the TSMC 4N process. They both feature the 5th generation Tensor cores and 4th generation RT cores. Both cards support the latest DLSS 4 feature set, including 4x frame generation, as well as the upcoming Reflex 2 feature. They both use PCIe 5.0 interface but may be limited to 8x lanes. Lastly, both support the new NVENC encoder and NVDEC decoder, which brings 4:2:2 video encoding and decoding support.

In terms of pricing, the RTX 5060 Ti starts at $429 for the 16GB model and $379 for the 8GB model, and will be available starting April 16. The RTX 5060 will start at $299 and will be available some time in May. These are pre-tariff prices in the US and are subject to change. There are no Founders Edition models but they will be available from all major OEMs.

The company also announced RTX 5060 laptop GPUs, which will be available from major manufacturers starting May.
