RTX 5060 Ti 16GB Review & Specifications

The RTX 5060 Ti 16GBis based on the Blackwell 2.0 architecture and manufactured using the 4 nm process node. It was launched approximately 1 month, 3 weeks ago, originally priced at $430. It features 4608 cores, including 36 compute units (SMs), 144 texture mapping units (TMUs), and 48 render output units (ROPs). For ray tracing and AI-accelerated tasks, it also includes 36 dedicated RT cores and 144 Tensor cores, enabling advanced rendering and upscaling features where supported. It has a base clock of 2407 MHz and a boost clock reaching up to 2572 MHz. The RTX 5060 Ti 16GB comes equipped with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory across a 128-bit bus. Memory runs at 1750 MHz and delivers a total memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s.

This GPU has a low thermal design power (TDP) of 180 W. It is generally compatible with almost all PC cases and is excellent for SFF and compact systems where heat dissipation is a concern.

RTX 5060 Ti 16GB Performance

RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is a mid-range graphics card, scoring 45.23% in relative gaming performance. Thanks to 16 GB of VRAM, it offers excellent 1440p performance and can handle 4K gaming with optimized settings or the help of DLSS, FSR, and frame generation. Great for users targeting 100+ FPS at 1440p or playable 4K in lighter titles.

The RTX 5060 Ti 16GB is equipped with a generous 16 GB of VRAM, providing excellent performance in a wide range of use cases. It can handle ultra to high settings in most modern games at up to 4K resolution with minimal compromise. It also supports features such as ray tracing and high-resolution textures without significant memory constraints. For content creators, this GPU is well-suited for 4K video editing, photo editing with large RAW files, 3D rendering, and complex animations. In AI applications, it can run intermediate-sized models and perform tasks such as training custom models, image generation, and data processing — though not at the scale of enterprise-class GPUs. It offers a great balance for gamers, creators, and prosumers alike.

MSI Gaming RTX 5060 Ti 16G Ventus 2X OC Plus delivers a balanced performance-per-price ratio of 60.6%. With sufficient VRAM, it provides good value for gamers seeking practical performance without overspending.
