Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB review: an all-rounder that’s better all round

If PC gaming was a house, the chairs, tables, and at least one pouffe would be make out of Nvidia XX60 graphics cards. No other GPU lineage accounts for as many builds or playing hours, though the fact that we love them so much does make it hurt worse when they go astray. As the 16GB version of the RTX 4060 Ti did, when it launched at a withering $499. This time, the RTX 5060 Ti is still getting separate 8GB and 16GB flavours, but Nvidia have remembered that yes, this is still supposed to be a mid-range card. Thus: price cuts, with the 8GB model starting from £349 / $379 and the 16GB from a sharply dropped £399 / $429. The gen-on-gen speed upgrade is merely moderate, though between that cost cutting, the option of DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation (MFG), and performance-per-watt that beats the already efficient 4060 Ti, it still makes for a reasonably appealing new addition to the GeForce dynasty.
