ASUS GeForce RTX 5060 Ti TUF OC 16 GB

I remember when going forward 2 gens you could get performance of a high end card two gens ago in a mid ranged card. Such as 980Ti to a RTX 2060. Two gens and the 2060 was giving you 980Ti performance.

My 3080Ti stiil holds roughly 25% performance over the 5060Ti. Two gens later and the jump in gains just isn't there if you're not dropping thousands on the top 4090 or 5090 cards.

I'll just contently keep playing on my 3080Ti and enjoy the fact I don't need to upgraded anytime soon.
Hashtag #metoo xD
 
What a f@#₪ side grade from 4060ti.
This is the future of mainstream GPU, where only real difference will be the dlss version…
Stagnation to the max.

As a daily user of a 3060 Ti for ~2.5 years now this is sadly quite disappointing. 'wasn't expecting much but something better than this at least..'
Oh well then a second hand 4070 Super maybe a 5070 it is.. 'will see how the prices are in early september or so, thats when I'm planning to upgrade if everything goes alright'
 
It would have been easier to transform the block diagram of the TU106 for the architecture page. It's the exact same GPU with the INT/FP units mixed up.
 
It's selling for $700 locally for the cheapest 16GB model. I paid $730 for a 7900XT recently.

The cheapest 5070 is also $730. The 5070Ti is around $1150.

This MSRP thing is a joke.

The 3080ti and the 3090 were great cards. Were quite expensive at launch (crypto and all that) but after a while 3080ti could be found for a decent price.

I've would got a 3090 but I still can't find them for a good price. Nvidia's compute stack + 24GB VRAM is a massive advantage.

it's different. Units can do shared 4608 INT or 4608 FP or any combination and tensor cores are more integrated and talk directly. and in turing they only do 2304 FP plus independently 2304 INT.
 
For those games you could just turn settings down presumably. I think the price of these 5060 Ti cards is not bad. I see in the UK the standard cards are going for £399.95 which is cheaper than the 16GB 4060 Ti ever sold for, even in sales. So with two years' worth of inflation it's still cheaper, and it's faster than the old card, and more efficient. It's not bad.
 
This test shows how bad games are made.

Some games show this card basically equal to the my radeon 7800xt. some other games the card is closer to the far worse radeon 7700xt. Well this justify to not buy any online only DRM launcher games.

That nvidia card will sell well and many will buy it. So sad it costs more than my radeon 7800xt which in my point of view by looking through a few benchmark performs better.

Note: Do not post random youtube videos which compare a million hardware configurations. I doubt those channels really have those hardware themself. Except a few where you sometimes see the big piles of hardware: Except gamers nexus // 99% of youtube is nonsens of card a vs card b.

The pcie 5 x 8 lanes or 8GB VRAM does not really matter on that product. 15 year old games - why not buy that card. This card is excellent for retro gaming when you do not care for Physx.

50X a 1060, supposedly.
Good review, appalling gpu, how can this launch get any worse?

It doesn't really matter for the block diagram, does it? It's just a different shade of green.

Because if all you are playing is 15 year old games you don't need a $600 Nvidia card. Most basic laptops with iGPUs would be plenty.

If you want to play modern stuff too, there are still more sensible options. $600 for this thing is a ripoff.

90 & 60-class performance gap:

3060TI/3090TI - 57%

4090TI/4060TI - 109%

5090TI/5060TI - 121%

The performance jumps become more dramatic as the generation progresses. Even more concerning when comparing the standard 60-class models.
 
whatever Nvidia is smoking i want some :roll: :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
lolololol my 3080 looking at me like....

It's telling that the 9070 is literally off the charts for a lot of the specific game tests, and that card is within striking distance of the real price on the ground. 9060 XT has a real chance of beating this card if the rumors about the high frequencies are true. 9060 XT being half a 9070 XT but keeping the same frequencies seems like it could beat a 5060 Ti that is half of a 5070 Ti but with lower frequencies.
 
I have one box with a 4060 Ti 8GB, but with $600-750 online prices, that's a no-go for a 5060 Ti 16GB upgrade.
 
I bought my 6950xt for about €650 september 2022, feeling pretty good about it still!
Same. There is no upgrade path from that card at the moment. In the future, 5080/5090 once prices go down to where they should be.
 
$600 and it doesn't beat the 4070, what a joke. And 16GB of VRAM makes no sense on this card.
Also yeah the cooler is nice but anything more than a dual fan cooler is unnecessary, these massive 3 fan coolers are only making the cards more expensive.
Bunch of complaints about something you would never buy anyway.

Whatever.
 
My and others complaints for this card are valid.
And no I'd never buy it, the 5060Ti is pointless at these prices, and even at MSRP it isn't enough of an improvement over a 4060Ti, the 5060Ti should have been the 5050.

5060 Ti has 51.4% of the cores of the 5070 Ti and performs aroudn 55.7% in 4k and 58.1% in 1440p.
9060 XT is going to have 50% of cores of 9070 XT, which is already slower (by a bit) than 5070 Ti. I don't think 9060 XT is beating 5060 Ti, especially with 128-bit GDDR6 vs GDDR7. Tied in raster, slower in RT at best. Having said that, if they price it well, like $300 for the 16GB, it would sell much better.
 
The real question is.. will the 9600XT beat it :confused:

:laugh:

At least its better than a 4060Ti :sleep:
 
$570 for this card while the RTX 5070 is $600, some one needs to ask Nvidia for more performance

200.webp
Asus chooses to slap 140$ premium on a card, but it's somehow Nvidia's fault?

The logic of these pile-ons will never cease to amuse me :rolleyes:

You're discovered one of W1zzard's secrets (stuff like that is not new; there are other things he does as well but I'm not about trying to fight with the guy...I'll work out reality from available info myself). :cool:

Really appreciate the cats coming out and talking about VRAM (again), in which I wish more would just say what a few already do:
Realistically most want 12GB right now, but that could have been said for anything between >8-12GB for a while...but it too will soon be a bottleneck. IMO it's likely 16GB will be too before-long, but not as severe.
In my estimation, the ideal is probably >/~18-20GB for the long-term future, but I also think there's a decent chance 16GB will still be playable/usable for quite some time; just lower settings or <60fps on avg.
So, realistically-speaking, if you're buying a card right now, you should try to buy one with at least 16GB if you can. On the same token, do not expect one with 12GB to be a great experience for very long.
I said this with the 4070 series, which has proven true, and is also true of the 5070. There are times it is enough, there are many it barely squeaks by, but more instances of it being a bottleneck WILL occur.
Your mins/1% lows will suffer, and as game demands increase current ('acceptable') variance will become stutter; in some cases already is. Just expect it to be much more frequent (as we enter a new gen).

I also appreciate that some are starting to speak up about the reality of RT etc, which is to say IT JUST DOES NOT WORK WELL ON <$1000 nVIDIA GPUs AT INTENDED REZ FOR > 1 GEN. This is why it's a farce.
There are already instances in which the difference you're paying for something like 5070Ti->5080 is to be able to have 1440pRT. But in reality, both will likely suck come a new gen of hardware/new consoles.
Hence buying into it, especially on a low-end card, is incredibly ill-advised. In many instances it cannot take advantage of those features with playable settings, and some that barely can won't in upcoming titles.
I like to show the lineage on 3080, because they hard sold the card on RT even though it has massive problems now; they also did the 4070 series and it does as well. It's kind of a crock and makes me sad.
Where now you can literally show people, those things set aside, where overclocking a 6800xt/7800xt/7900xt, for instance, or 7900xtx for 4k, really do work just as well for most usable situations, if not better.
I really do hope for a future where people can look at past generations, see what has happened with them, and then extrapolate the same will occur before making a new purchase and getting caught in the trap.
They may make different decisions. In-fact, I think many will/would; perhaps some may "overbuy" (which you almost have to do imho), but maybe others just buy something like a 9070/xt for 1080p to begin with.
I see the standing Australian man also more-or-less said what I have (about RT) in not so many words, and am grateful for that. I really do hope more people understand where we're coming from and take note.
Just like VRAM (which HUB wasn't always hip to either, but did catch on quicker than most-everyone else and I do think has helped consumers with their advice).

I get it; being forward-thinking means you take a lot of shit from people that are defensive of their purchases and/or trying to justify their personal wants/budget, or being sold on certain short-term gimmicks.

But somebody has to at least put that information out there so less people get suckered, especially if other products may work better for their short/long-term goals and somebody can help them understand that.

I'm glad that it would appear that more are starting to see the light and explain those things to people...and hope that continues. This launch (from many reviewers) gave me hope.
