| Bofferbrauer2 said: NVidia 5060/5060Ti announcement videos (and condemnation of NVidia's shady practices for their 8GB cards): Gamer's Nexus: Hardware Unboxed: Pricing and launch day:
5060Ti 16GB is supposed to be 20% faster than the old 4060Ti (not precised by NVidia if they meant the 8GB or 16GB 4060Ti). As in the HU chart the 4060Ti has an average of 70FPS and the 5060Ti is supposedly 20% faster, that would give the 5060Ti an average of 84FPS, short of the 4070 with an average of 90FPS and just enough to beat the 7700XT. The 5060 meanwhile is supposed to be 20-25% faster than the 4060, which would be enough to beat the 4060Ti by a hair... but it's 8GB framebuffer will hold it back a lot, so only so long it lasts... Oh, and NVidia trying their darnest to hide the 8GB version of the 5060Ti from benchmarks really shows they know it's a waste of sand, but one they'll sell well to unknowing consumers. |
The only good thing about the 5060 Ti is the 16GB version is $70 less than last gen. It's a shame the only time 60 series saw 12GB of vram was with the 3060 and since then, they have been stuck with 8GB. Nvidia could have given 5060 3GB chips to add in more vram as well since they have access to high density GDDR7 chips but alas.
Hopefully Radeon doesn't goof their pricing up with the 60 class like last time. Launching 7600 with 8GB of vram while being slower than 4060 for a $30 discount was laughable. Hopefully they pull off another 9070 XT type pricing with the 7600.
