The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card was unveiled on April 16, marking its entry as the most budget-friendly option in the Blackwell GPU lineup. Despite its promising specs, the launch turned out to be a "paper" release, with physical units scarce and often available only at inflated prices. However, for those in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC featuring this new GPU, the outlook is much more promising. Several prebuilt options are readily available and priced competitively. Among the best deals, Skytech's models stand out, with prices starting at just $1,249.99 on Amazon, offering a great entry point for a current-generation gaming rig capable of handling both 1080p and 1440p gaming.

The RTX 5060 Ti steps up from the RTX 4060 Ti, boasting a 15%-20% performance boost in gaming. This improvement outpaces the generational leap seen with the RTX 5070 over the RTX 4070, making the RTX 5060 Ti an exceptional value for 1080p gaming. It's also well-suited for 1440p gaming, particularly when leveraging DLSS 4 technology. While the RTX 5070 offers superior power, prebuilt systems with this card start at a steep $1,700-$1,800, a premium that's difficult to justify for gamers focused on resolutions up to 1440p.
GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Review by James Archer (Rock Paper Shotgun)
"The RTX 5060 Ti upholds the tradition of delivering smooth, yet cost-effective 1440p performance typical of the XX60 Ti series. Compared to the more expensive RTX 5070, it significantly improves native-resolution, pre-DLSS frame rates from the previous 40 series. Thus, the RTX 5060 Ti stands out as one of the most successful RTX 50 series cards and the go-to choice for budget-conscious gamers aiming for at least 1440p."
