A deep dive into the specifications of NVIDIA’s upcoming mid-range and budget GPUs.
Specifications for the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5050 have surfaced, revealing details about NVIDIA’s upcoming graphics cards for the mid-range and budget segments.As anticipated, significant performance leaps compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 series are unlikely. While core counts may not drastically increase, expect higher energy consumption and clock speeds to compensate for a chip architecture that doesn’t offer substantial improvements.
The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti will reportedly come in two variants, featuring 8 GB and 16 GB of VRAM. The GeForce RTX 5050 is expected to utilize slower GDDR6 memory to reduce costs, positioning it as a competitor to the Intel Arc A580. AMD is also reportedly preparing Radeon RX 9060 and 9050 cards to compete in this market segment.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Specifications
According to leaker kopite7kimi, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti will use the PCB PG152-SKU10/15 paired with the NVIDIA GB206-300-A1 GPU. This chip is expected to feature 4,608 CUDA Cores, a modest increase of 256 CUDA Cores compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. It will also incorporate faster GDDR7 memory in 8 GB and 16 GB configurations, maintaining a 128-bit memory interface.
These specifications result in a 180W power consumption for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, a 20W increase over the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is expected to be slightly faster than the RTX 4060 Ti. Pricing will be a critical factor, especially considering the intel Arc B580’s performance is close to the RTX 4060 Ti, but is priced between 270 and 300 euros, compared to NVIDIA’s 440 euros.
While the RTX 5060 Ti may outperform Intel’s GPU, it is also expected to be more expensive. Intel also offers a competitive advantage with 12 GB of VRAM, a perfect middle ground for some users.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050: A Closer Look
Alongside the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, the specifications for the RTX 5050 have also emerged. This card is expected to deliver a significant performance decrease. The PG152-SKU50 board will house an NVIDIA GB207-300-A1 GPU with 2,560 CUDA Cores. This core count matches the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER. In comparison,the GeForce RTX 4060 features 3,072 CUDA Cores,and the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti boasts 4,864 CUDA Cores. Performance comparisons between the RTX 5050 and the RTX 3060 Ti, launched in December 2020, will be captivating.
These 2,560 CUDA Cores are paired with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, making it the first and only Blackwell (RTX 50 Series) GPU with GDDR6 memory, connected via a 128-bit interface. The card’s power consumption is rated at 130W,15W higher than the RTX 4060.
Initial Thoughts
Based on these specifications, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5050 appear underwhelming on paper. There is hope for surprises,such as high clock speeds,but hopefully,these improvements won’t rely solely on AI. Notably, specifications for the GeForce RTX 5060 ‘non-Ti’ have not yet surfaced, suggesting a possible later release.
Rumored Launch and Pricing
The RTX 5050 and RTX 5060 are rumored to launch in April 2025. It’s believed the MSRP of the RTX 5050 could be $299, matching the RTX 3050.
