The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card, which debuted on April 16, stands out as the most affordable Blackwell GPU on the market. However, its launch has been somewhat disappointing as a "paper" release, with actual retail units scarce and often available only with significant markups. On a more positive note, if you're in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC featuring this new GPU, your options are plentiful and surprisingly cost-effective. The most budget-friendly options we've spotted are from Skytech, available on Amazon, starting at a competitive $1,249.99. This price point makes for an excellent entry into current-generation 1080p/1440p gaming rigs.

The RTX 5060 Ti, succeeding the RTX 4060 Ti, offers a solid 15%-20% performance boost in games. This improvement is more significant than the generational leap from the RTX 4070 to the RTX 5070. From a value standpoint, the RTX 5060 Ti is the top choice for 1080p gaming among Blackwell cards, and it's also well-suited for 1440p gaming, especially when DLSS 4 is utilized. While the RTX 5070 is more powerful, prebuilt systems equipped with it start at a steep $1,700-$1,800. For gamers aiming for 1440p or lower resolutions, the additional cost may not be justified.
GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Review by James Archer (Rock Paper Shotgun)
"The RTX 5060 Ti upholds the tradition of the XX60 Ti series, delivering smooth performance at 1440p while remaining budget-friendly. Compared to the more expensive RTX 5070, it significantly improves native-resolution, pre-DLSS frame rates over the previous 40 series.
As such, the RTX 5060 Ti can be considered one of the more successful RTX 50 graphics cards, and it's currently the go-to choice for budget-conscious gamers looking to achieve at least 1440p performance."
