NVIDIA RTX 5060 Reportedly Launching May 19 at $349
Tech outlet VideoCardz reports that NVIDIA plans to launch its GeForce RTX 5060 graphics card on May 19, with an expected price of approximately $349 (RMB 2,499). The company has reportedly already contacted board partners for the release. A notable change in strategy involves the review embargo lifting simultaneously with the sales embargo, meaning independent reviews will not be available before purchase, forcing consumers to rely on official benchmarks. The RTX 5060 is positioned as the entry-level model in the RTX 50 series, featuring the GB206 GPU and 3,840 CUDA cores. While it retains the 8GB memory capacity and 128-bit memory bus of its predecessor, the RTX 4060, it offers a 25% increase in core count and a significant 65% improvement in memory bandwidth. This launch aims to strengthen NVIDIA's position in the mid-range GPU market by offering enhanced performance metrics over the previous generation while maintaining a competitive price point for mainstream gamers and creators.
