Nvidia has officially unveiled the RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti, marking the entry-level models in its new 50-series lineup. Built on the TSMC 4N process and Blackwell architecture, both cards feature 5th-gen Tensor cores, 4th-gen RT cores, and DLSS 4 support with enhanced frame generation.
The RTX 5060 Ti packs 4608 CUDA cores, up to 2.57GHz boost clock, and offers 8GB or 16GB GDDR7 VRAM options. The RTX 5060, with 3840 CUDA cores and only 8GB GDDR7, lands as a budget-friendly but underwhelming 2025 pick. Performance gains of 20–25% over their 40-series counterparts are claimed but with plenty of AI upscaling involved.
Prices start at $429 for the 5060 Ti (16GB), $379 for the 8GB variant, and $299 for the 5060, with availability from April 16 and May, respectively. Nvidia also announced RTX 5060 laptop GPUs, shipping soon from major OEMs. No Founders Editions will be offered.
