RTX 5060 Ti: Launching Soon with RTX 4060 Ti Price
We have seen the RTX 5090 and 5080, and even the RTX 5070 from NVIDIA's new generation. Now attention turns to the cards most gamers anticipate: the lower-cost, but powerful, RTX 5060 series. While official details are awaited, rumors are circulating about the RTX 5060 Ti and its potential price.
RTX 5060 Ti: Possible April Launch and Pricing
Reports from Board Channels, a Chinese tech leak website, indicate the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti might release as early as April 16th. The rumored starting price is expected to be similar to the current RTX 4060 Ti. This suggests NVIDIA may be aiming for a very competitive price point for this card.
Two Memory Variants for RTX 5060 Ti
NVIDIA could offer the RTX 5060 Ti in two memory configurations to cater to different user needs and budgets:
- RTX 5060 Ti 16GB: Likely priced around $499.
- RTX 5060 Ti 8GB: Expected to be priced around $399.
This dual-memory strategy could address varied budget considerations and performance expectations within the mid-range graphics card market.
RTX 5060 Ti: Speculated Internal Architecture
The RTX 5060 Ti is speculated to be based on the GB206-300-A1 GPU chip. It may feature 4608 cores and a 128-bit memory bus. Despite a similar bus width to competitors, the RTX 5060 Ti is expected to utilize faster GDDR7 memory. Operating at 28 Gb/s, this could result in a memory bandwidth of up to 448 GB/s. This represents a significant 55% increase in memory bandwidth compared to the RTX 4060 Ti. However, this performance gain may lead to a slightly higher power consumption, with a rumored Total Board Power (TBP) of 180W, approximately 20W more than the previous generation.
RTX 5060 on the Horizon
Information regarding the standard RTX 5060 remains limited. No price details are available, and its release is anticipated to be slightly later, potentially around mid-May or afterwards. More leaks and official announcements from NVIDIA are expected as these rumored release dates approach.
RTX 5060 Ti: Potential Mainstream Gaming Choice
The RTX 5060 Ti has the potential to become a popular choice for mainstream gamers. If the speculated specifications and pricing are accurate, it presents a compelling option. Further details are anticipated as the rumored April release date nears.
