Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti: not a disappointment, yet.
Reviewers were appalled by lack of value in Nvidia’s RTX 4060 and 4060 Ti last year, but the new “$429” 5060 Ti is a solid “it depends.” In every review I’ve consumed so far (e.g. Digital Foundry, Tom’s Hardware, Guru3D, PCGamer) it looks like a real upgrade over the five-year-old 3060 Ti... if you don’t have to pay over $500 for it.
While it might be only 20 percent faster than 4060 Ti in pure raster, it’s more like 35-45 percent over the 3060 Ti. In some games, it beats the RTX 3080 and RX 6800. In others, it’s closer to a 3070 Ti. If you tolerate fake frames, you can apparently get north of 60fps in games like Alan Wake 2 at 4K with full path tracing and 4x frame gen.
