- A new leak suggests Nvidia’s RTX 5060 Ti and Non-Ti Variant will stick to the previous gene’s 128-bit memory bus
- This is unlike other RTX 5000 -Serie GPUs using higher memory buses
- The rumored use of GDDR7 VRAM can be the greatest highlight compared to their predecessors
Nvidia has not yet finished its RTX 5000 series GPU -lineup when its unannounced RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 Desktop cards are still on the horizon. However, a new leak has allegedly revealed several of their specifications.
As highlighted by Videocardz, NVIDIAS RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 use a 128-bit memory bus, the same as their predecessor, according to a leaked shipping description. This is different from the RTX 5070’s 192-bit memory bus along with the rest of the Blackwell GPU lineup, which is important to improve the VRAM performance in GPUs.
While this may seem disappointing at first glance, the leaked specifications suggest that both GPUs will use GDDR7 memory: The RTX 5060 has an 8 GB VRAM GDDR7 capacity, while its ten counterpart has both 16 GB and 8 GB GB GDDR7 settings. As Videocardz suggests, this could come along well as a potential lift with much higher speeds and bandwidth over their predecessors who use GDDR6 instead.
It is worth taking this with a grain of salt: We know that the RTX 5060 will eventually be revealed, but there is no confirmation of Team Green’s yet, so it is worth waiting for official specifications to arrive.
Ultimately, these GPUs on ENTRY-LEX and their chances of success in the GPU market will probably depend on pricing. With accessibility, scalping and inflation is NVIDIA’s most important problems with its RTX 5000 series launch, the graphics giant may have difficulty convincing consumers to choose its lineup if the GPUs turn out to be difficult to get at the retail price.
No matter how good or bad the new GPUs are, pricing will determine their fate …
It is a sad reality that PC players are facing the GPU market that is currently in disarray -and with the recent tariffs mixed with scalping and great demand, I doubt it will end soon.
Unfortunately, this means that the RTX 5060 TI and Non-Ti GPUs are likely to suffer the same fate (especially if they turn out to be good opportunities for budget players). We have seen third -party cards from both NVIDIA and AMD sell over MSRP at several retailers; If Team Green does not make a reference card for any of the upcoming GPUs, it can be much worse as consumers will be completely left to grace for retailers and Nvidia’s production partners.
PC gaming can already be an expensive hobby, and all recent speculation points out that this is getting worse: In addition to PC hardware, we now also have game prices to worry about, thanks to Nintendo’s absurd $ 80 game prices (no, I won’t shut up this).
I really hope that Nvidia can surprise consumers with these new cards as it definitely needs a kickstart for good momentum. Not only has it been inflation and pricing, but drivers and lack of rops have haunted Team Green since the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 launch. Let’s just hope that a new launch can be excited again …
