The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card was introduced on April 16 as the most budget-friendly option in the Blackwell series. However, its launch was more of a "paper" event, with actual retail units scarce and often available only at a significant markup. If you're in the market for a complete prebuilt gaming PC featuring this new GPU, you're in luck. There are numerous prebuilt gaming PCs readily available, and they're priced quite reasonably. The two most affordable options we've come across are from Skytech, listed on Amazon, starting at $1,249.99. This is an excellent deal for a current-generation gaming rig designed for 1080p and 1440p gaming.

The RTX 5060 Ti, which follows the RTX 4060 Ti, offers a performance boost of about 15%-20% in gaming. This improvement is more significant than the generational leap seen with the RTX 5070 over the RTX 4070. From a value standpoint, the RTX 5060 Ti stands out as the best Blackwell card for 1080p gaming, yet it's also well-equipped to handle 1440p gaming, particularly when DLSS 4 is utilized. While the RTX 5070 is more powerful, prebuilt systems with this card start at $1,700-$1,800, making the price difference hard to justify for those targeting 1440p or lower resolutions.
GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Review by James Archer (Rock Paper Shotgun)
"The RTX 5060 Ti upholds the tradition of the XX60 Ti series by delivering smooth, yet cost-effective performance at 1440p. When compared to the pricier RTX 5070, it pushes native-resolution, pre-DLSS frame rates further ahead from the 40 series era.
Therefore, we can consider the RTX 5060 Ti as one of the standout RTX 50 series graphics cards, and the go-to choice for budget-conscious gamers aiming for at least 1440p performance."
