Next week's planned launch of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti series brings two SKUs differentiated by memory capacity and pricing. Both models leverage the GB206‑300 GPU, made on a 5 nm node from TSMC, and feature a 128‑bit memory interface paired with GDDR7 chips running at an effective 28 Gbps. According to IT Home, NVIDIA has communicated MSRP figures to its key AIC partners ahead of the mid‑April rollout. The entry‑level 8 GB variant is set at an MSRP of ¥3,199 (roughly $379), while the 16 GB version carries an MSRP of ¥3,599 (about $429). This is a reduction from the $399 and $499 prices anticipated earlier. NVIDIA is adjusting its pricing strategy for these mid-tier chips to align itself against the competition better and draw more new buyers.

Under the hood, the GB206‑300 core activates 36 streaming multiprocessors, delivering a total of 4,608 CUDA cores. The GPU operates at a base clock of 2,407 MHz, boosting to 2,572 MHz under load. Memory runs at 1,750 MHz (28 Gbps effective), routed through the 128‑bit bus to yield up to 448 GB/s of bandwidth. Graphics‑specific throughput is augmented by 144 texture mapping units and 48 render output units, while 36 dedicated ray‑tracing cores handle real‑time lighting calculations. Additionally, 144 tensor cores accelerate AI‑driven workloads such as DLSS upscaling and machine‑learning inference. Power delivery for both cards is managed via a single 16‑pin connector, with a total board power of 180 W. Display connectivity includes one HDMI 2.1b port alongside three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs, and the card interfaces with host systems over PCI Express 5.0 x16.

This is actually vaguely reasonable if true. I mean, that MSRP won’t hold in the real life actually, but an attempt is made, I suppose.
 
Hmm....Smells like 5070 price cut to $500 at some point.

I wonder if there's some (at least backroom) adjustments going on of ~$50 for kits there, if not across the stack. Who knows...It would make sense, though.

Its an 8GB SKU, if that can be called reasonable in 2025 for an x60ti, all bets are off to begin with, let's get real here.

This is not Nvidia 'aligning', this is just Nvidia 'playing you' by leaking a rumored high price and then coming out with a lower one as the actual price.
 
I wonder if NVIDIA will drop the price for 5060? it does have a more significant core count bump from 4060, but distance from 5060 to 5060ti pricing also gotten closer. (assume its same as 4060 $299)
 
Well, it's logical that it shouldn't be 400/500 again when the 5070 costs 550, not 600. Only a madman would buy the 4060ti16 for 500 when the 5070 costs 550. But the 4060ti should have been lowered to 350, 380 is a joke.

279 would be good, but considering that 5060 will grow significantly compared to 4060, then 300 is a minimum without a chance.
 
$430 for 16 GB CUDA card is incredible value for work.
 
The amusing part to note is that 8GB of GDDR7 apparently costs $50 (or less).

So, really, it doesn't cost nVIDIA more than mass-produced GDDR6 (which costs something like less than $12 a 2GB chip).

So, let that be a lesson to people that thought/think it's expensive. There's your proof. I mean, obviously they wouldn't use it if it costs them more anyway (because nVIDIA are frugal), but now you KNOW.

Only a madman would buy the 5070 550.
Shortened that up for ya'.
 
not terrible is best they can give us this gen (60ti and 70Ti). let's see retail prices, all others are way above msrp still. 9070xt starts at 820eur for pc reaper, 5070ti 910eur for msi shadow, 700eur for 5070 and 9070. nothing sells for msrp anymore
 
Better than expected, which itself isn't high praise but it's a step up from what we expected to rabble about incoherently.

Something something ngreedia, am I doing it right?

With tariffs? Doubtful.

Except it has like 10% of CUDA cores of the flagship card.

Considering the market? Yeah, it’s reasonable. If the price actually holds it will sell. Other option is that it’s just an upsell for the 16GB model. Which is also quite goos for the price, assuming it will be vaguely close to reality. As @dgianstefani noted, I would cop the 16GB model in a heartbeat if it’s actually sub-500 in reality. That’s an outstanding value for a work/game hybrid card. For people who just need a toy I am sure AMD will come out with a good option in the 9600XT (or whatever it will end up being called). Hell, the 9700 non-XT could be a good seller if it was slashed by 50 bucks and ACTUALLY sold at that price.

Oh, totally. It also still will suck, and N44 will likely actually compete very well with it and be cheaper. Both of them will also make very little sense, bc I think AMD is actually going to compete with 9070 price.

And, again, so does W1zzard.

I think nVIDIA expected RDNA4 to be cheap, but I don't think they expected it to catch up in actual real playable settings (especially in RT), but it did.

IOW, begun, these price wars have. Grab your popcorn. I don't think people get that AMD can probably sell the 9070 for very little dollars (if they choose), and just might to totally screw nVIDIA.
Since 5070 sucks, and 9070 doesn't, potentially very much not with that bios mod, 5070 needs a cut.
Then AMD has to compete in price, but 5070 will still suck. Where it goes from there, IDK, depends on the markets' perception of AMD over the course of this gen if they lower prices more, but should be fun.
This is when we find out how much margin nVIDIA is willing to part with in the consumer space when AMD is used to lower margin and can now compete in perf/features across the board.

People don't understand these prices are only BARELY equal to relative performance of current 9070 MSRP of ~$650 (on the 8GB model, and not accounting for the fact 8GB is awful/will be a limitation).

Mark my words, by the end of this there WILL be competition with the B580....conceivably from BOTH companies...for the first time in a very long time.

Very much laughing at people calling 5060ti 16GB good value. :laugh:
(Although it's also a little sad if people think that; I hope they become better informed. :()

If you're cool with that general price, there will be a 9070 for you (eventually). Again, we know this because it's pretty obvious the low-end 3nm part will match 9070 xt (and have to be less than $400).
This is why that bios thing makes me so overjoyed.
I can already imagine people that could never afford that level of GPU doing it when 9070 is cheap (and/or used); when they would normally buy something like a 5060 Ti.

That stuff makes me so happy...the thought of (savvy) people that can't generally afford something like that actually having a really good 1440p experience is really cool....and I don't think it's *that* far away.

I think I got my 4060Ti for $320 sometime last year. I see they are double in price now $600+ yikes!
 
I wouldn't pay more than 300 for an 8 GB card in the middle of 2025, but maybe that's just me.

And then over 400 for an x60-level SKU that has half of the shader count of the 5070 Ti that got released for $750 (and was still way overpriced)? Not a chance in hell.
 
Prices now are irrelevant, supply problems are a thing of the past now that the Americans will stop buying cards.
The pricing of the Ti is right for me, let's see about performance, but I'm waiting for the general price drops and availability to increase, thanks orange man
 
Is this before or after the tariffs?
Since those prices are theoretical and on paper only, and mostly valid only on USA, expect that the real price of those to be between 50-75% more.
Especially in Europe, Japan, Austria, etc...

when AMD launch the 9070 most stores in Europe had some stock at MSRP, so it was valid, even if just for a couple of hours. This time availability will be better in the world except for murika as they will have to pay double the MSRP for most if not all cards.
The rest of the world doesn't have to care about the US tariffs.
 
Does anybody actually believe this will be the case?

will farrell dont believe GIF

That's probably because stores got their initial stock of 9070 cards before the US tariffs kicked in. This won't be the case with the 5060 Ti.

the world is not the US, this may seem like a shock i know, but tariffs didn't change in Europe.

Then why did prices increase all over the world?

I don't know the supply chain 100%, but I suspect these products go through the US before coming here.
