NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 is a mid-range-class graphics card, best suited to 1080p Ultra and entry-level 1440p. To unlock its full performance and avoid a bottleneck, pair it with a Ryzen 7 or Intel Core Ultra 7, 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a Gen5 NVMe SSD — a weak CPU or slow storage will leave frames on the table.

Modern games lean heavily on ray tracing and high-resolution textures, so DLSS 4 and FSR frame generation are what keep frame rates smooth on the most demanding titles. At this performance level the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 can also drive VR headsets like the Meta Quest 3 and Valve Index at a steady 90 FPS.

With a 145W board power, give the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 a quality 80 Plus Gold power supply with real headroom, and make sure it won't bottleneck your processor with the free Bottleneck Calculator, or size your power supply with the PSU Calculator.
