- NVIDIA RTX 5060 has been viewed in a French retail product list
- Product page is for an Acer gaming -pc and it gives us a few specifications
- RTX 5060 is (one more time) shown to have 8 GB video RAM and that is GDDR7 memory
Nvidia’s RTX 5060 GPU has been viewed in a dealer’s product list of an Acer Desktop PC, adding another rumor to the growing pile of speculation that this is the next Blackwell models to be launched (maybe very soon).
Videocardz reports that regular Leaker @momomo_us on X noted the listing of a French retailer, EVOPC.
It is a product page for an Acer Nitro N50 game -PC (still live, at the time of writing) that has an RTX 5060 graphics card and we also get a few small specs details about this GPU.
Obviously, all this with a significant help of skepticism, but the RTX 5060 is listed as having 8 GB of VRAM and that type of memory appears as GDDR7.
It is already the rumor that NVIDIA will use the GDDR7 video RAM for all its Blackwell graphics cards – except maybe for the RTX 5050 if the desktop version actually exists as it claims – so this votes with existing rumors. As awarding 8 GB VRAM to RTX 5060 for that matter.
Analysis: Another round of Video Ram Blues?
Another rumor pointing to 8 GB of video RAM to Vanilla RTX 5060 will cause moaning from players not impressed that the RTX 4060 stacked at this level, so much less its successor. But it would hardly be a surprise considering that the RTX 5070 also maintained 12 GB of video memory (again to many).
NVIDIA can argue that this new GDDR7 RAM is much faster – and that’s for sure – and that the company has tricks up the sleeve to make slimmer VRAM loads work better (such as RTX Neural Texture Compress). The problem with these AI -Government is that they do not apply anywhere – they are only for supported games – and therefore the overall picture of where we end up with this eventually muddy.
However, I suppose, like many out there, that NVIDIA is teaching RTX 5060 (and 5070) VRAM-wise for any real level of future-proofing anyway.
As you may remember, Nvidia reportedly holds the same formula as Lovelace for the RTX 5060 Ti, which means there will be theoretically both 8 GB and 16 GB spins on this GPU (and again the latter will offer more VRAM than its higher levels, RTX 5070). So for those who want a better level of protection against VRAM blues, hopefully there should be RTX 5060 TI 16GB-OMEND with the prospect of a less than fair-way tax on your wallet. (Remember that all this is rumor, of course).
Grapevine also expects the RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti may have been revealed in March, very soon – perhaps even later this week or early next week – and these GPUs could be sold later in March or April, where we may also see RTX 5050.
