NVIDIA RTX 50 SERIES - Technical/General Discussion

5060 - £270
5060 Ti 8GB - £320
5060 Ti 16GB - £390

OCUK in stock prices right now.

Where do the 9060 XT 16GB/8GB and 9060 non-XT slot in?

I'm thinking best case:

9060 - £250
9060 XT 8GB - £300
9060 XT 16GB - £350

Even if the XT performs really well, I don't see much higher prices than this. The non-XT could be more, but there's not much space to seperate them.

There's also a big gap to the next set of cards:

5070 - £500
9070 - £580
9070 XT - £660

Will AMD really have nothing at £500-ish? There's some 7800 XT stock about, maybe when that's completely gone the 9070 non-XT will drop a bit.

I could see a 5070 Super coming in at £600, 6-8 percent more performance, 18GB VRAM.
 
I just got sick of waiting and excuses by the guy I had previously ordered a Zotac RTX5090 from so just ordered an Gigabyte Gaming OC RTX5090 instead from elsewhere that was in-stock for £2115 (EUR converted). I liked my Gigabyte RTX4090 and their longer warranties so I am happy with that.

Just need to hope the cancellation of the Zotac RTX 5090 goes smoothly, I will chargeback if needed!

EDIT - Sorry mods, I am non-UK Germans so I forgot the competition rules still applied.

The 60 class GPU was always viewed as a great product in the past when you got the previous gen 80 class performance. Nowadays the 5070ti is the modern day 60 class but at 3x the price.

5060 has same performance as a 3070

60 series now gives you mid range performance from two generations back just at a slight price reduction

I’m in the middle of putting together a portable SFFPC and was about to grab a 4060 for the build - but is it a better decision now to get the 5060?

It’ll be going in a Ghost S1 case, my monitor that I travel with is a 24” 1080p 165hz monitor and it’s only really for a PC that I would be using for 1 week every month whilst I’m away.

5070 has some decent prices at the minute too - but feels a little overkill.

5060 performs 20% better, so comes down to cost, in which case that extra performance likely costs more than 20% extra

Maybe you should get the skills to enable yourself to run a company and pay yourself through that rather than work and pay PAYE. If you could pay less tax you would. What a silly answer. Who cares where the money came from?

Tax avoidance is illegal for a start but do you think a post that insults those looking at cheaper GPUs is in good faith considering how it was bought?

So yes it matters.

Considering the poster frequently post modded cyber punk stuff so let you run with that when it comes to company PAYE
 
The only review I've watched is from HUB who put it at the top of the charts for price to performance at Retail cost and 3nd at MSRP but turn around and say it's rubbish.... are we changing what is classed as "good" now?

Let's be clear, the stagnation of the performance and price increases in the market are terrible, but that's currently where we are.

Anyway more 9060XT info is out so im going to watch that now

$350 for the 16GB version, nice, lets see how long those MSRP cards last....

the 5060 is fine given the options, the 3070 guy will have to look at 5070 or an upgrade, we are comparing apples and oranges here.. the 5060 is not aimed at the 3070 user
there will be a response from nvidia if the 9060 is found to be too good to be true, but thats the future we are talking about

Always start by doing a little research of your own. If you had, you would very quickly see the 5060 is a disaster.

In all fairness I usually do - it’s why I’m running a 265k in my own home system but I’ve more recently found that reviews from a large majority of places aren’t always best placed.

I’ll have a look!

I would get the RX9060XT 16GB. Looks to be only slightly more expensive but faster than the RTX5060 with more VRAM.

Or you can wait for a clearance deal on an RTX4060 - maybe some will pop up at £200??

Supposed to be $349, so probably £329 here, and supposed to compare directly to the 5060Ti.

Depends whether that's $349 actual price though, or $349 AMD supported introduction price for a few days as per the 9070XT launch

Again sorry little Timmy you can't have a GPU for Christmas, maybe wait until next Christmas for a better one lol.

Maybe little Timmy could get his ass up a chimney or two and earn some coin rather than facing the crushing disappointment and humiliation of having a 8GB 5060.
Kids these days eh?
When I were a lad.. etc etc etc

Budget cards always have and should be price/performance leaders. You used to pay premium for top performance

It is only in recent years where (msrp) prices were scaled almost linearly with performance in a gpu lineup. Made top halo gpus like 4090 a logical and reasonable "value" purchase. Since you got no additional value from ones below it. Of course that meant top gpus were scalped until actual prices reflected this desirability.

But of course for 8GB cards, benchmark performance is no longer the whole story. Its rubbish because it locks the user from using it in configurations where performance could have been good but isn't, purely from lack of vram.
