No 12gb option? Ok, let's see prices.

Nah, FOH with them 8GB. They're selling a 5050 with a 5060 sticker. I bet it's a piece of shit like 15% faster than the already underwhelming 4060.

The core count is lower than on a 4060 Ti, which is already low to begin with.

The 5060 would actually be a decent uplift in performance, assuming these specs are true. But it is crippled by that 8GB of VRAM.
 
This is kinda silly but imagine AMD actually making VRAM removable and upgradable like regular system RAM. I realize how impractical it is to implement but it would be hilarious if they sprang that on the market without warning at EXACTLY a time like this.
 
8gb is a no go, even for budget builds.

Don't want to nervously check minimum requirements with each new game release. I could use intel integrated graphics if I wanted to do that.
 
16GB 5060ti likely to be a bit of an AI darling given the power usage per GB of memory will be best in class.
 
Lmaoooo at the 5060 being 8GB still in 2025, even 10 GB would have been too little. Should have been at least 12gb. Even the absolute weakest of the bunch which is a RTX 5050 should be more than 8GB in 2025.

RTX 5060 TI 16gb is the card I'm aiming for if it's around 400 at most and is stronger than a RTX 4060 TI 16GB by a fair amount. If not than I'll keep just waiting since I'm in no hurry to get a new PC with GTA VI, Elder Scrolls VI, FFVII Part 3, Stellar Blade 2, Half Life 3, Witcher 4, and some next gen revolutionary Resident Evil game still aren't out yet.

Priced accordingly? I bet it's 449

Besides the 5090, so far every card has been cheaper. Plus, pricing it at $450 puts it far too close to the 5070 they will inevitably have to discount by around $50 to make room for the 5070 Super. I think $450 for the 16GB model and $350 for the 8GB one. $250-300 for the 3060.

Why are they so stingy with the VRAM? Cunts.

VRAM isn't free.
You would be paying for more VRAM, and in case of 4060 it's not clear that the card needs more than 8.
With 5060Ti the 8GB model is certainly a weird one but there anyone willing can opt for the 16GB one. Problem is that people weren't very happy with 4060Ti 16GB earlier...
 
The xbox one x from 2017 has a 384 bit bus and 12gb of vram....don't waste money on this crap....at least the 4060 had a low watt card that could fit in htpc/office pcs rtx 5000 is a complete joke and 16gb of vram on the 5060 ti with a 128 bus is a slap in the face
 
Wait i just saw this... WTF is going on with the wattage? it's a freaking 128bit rebranded 5050.

Nvidia trying to beat the FX series for the worst cards ever?

8GB on a GPU in 2025 is just stupid and insulting.

This.
Nvidia does it because they know they can get away with it.

I'm looking forward to 5060 more power then a 4080 when using DLSS P and 4x FG, and then even that being a lie as well as a paper launch where most of the available GPUs are actually $200 more expensive then MSRP.

First graphics card I bought was the GTX 560 Ti.

Paid $240 for it. Had 1GB RAM (i.e. 66% the RAM of the GTX 5080).

Looking at benchmarks, it had 70% of the performance of the GTX 580, for half the price.

I'm going to guess the 5060 Ti is going to be a POS, that costs 40% the cost of a RTX 5080 (for the cheap one), and have like 30% of the performance, and half the RAM of the RTX 5080.

This isn't entirely true. Consoles use unified memory sort of like what phones, and the newer Apple devices use versus a gaming PC which uses separate RAM and VRAM.

I believe the Xbox One X had 12GB of RAM but only 9 was used for games, which is still more then the 5060 but memory numbers in consoles and PCs are different.

very true! forgot about that.
 
5060 Ti 16GB will be the only decent card. 8GB is trash these days. It's crazy AMD's $250 GPU from 2016 had the same amount of VRAM.

My Trident 9440 had that. I got it from 512kb to amazing 1mb. Bullfrog's Hi-Octane framerate jumped to a solid 60fps. :messenger_beaming:
 
I'm enjoying my 4060ti 16GB but would never even consider the 8GB version. I play so many games on it that blow way past 8GB.

Indiana Jones maxed out with all ray tracing uses over 14GB on this card even at 1440p DLSS Performance transformer model (so 720p internal). SO much vram usage with that game. 8GB version of this card would just die.

I didn't think they'd have the gall to sell an 8GB 5060, but here we are. I hope it bombs hard.

I've explained this before but it's usually one of the best selling cards nvidia will make due to price. PC gaming got big within the last few years and those people who recently started jumping in will play games on 900p low if it means the game runs at a stable frame rate (if that). As long as those people continue to allow 8GBs of VRAM to sell, nvidia doesn't see a need to not sell it.

Historically the dumbest fucking low end choice is the one dominating charts so I wouldn't be so sure about that. Cheaper wins out over logic.

Also true. Lol. Can't wait for all the complaints about lazy devs not optimizing their games.
