- The new rumor suggests that NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 will not need a 12 VHPWR feeding connector
- Should facilitate update
- If you have a 650W or more power supply, it should also be fine
It seems that the next NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 graphics cards could demonstrate that being even better for money than was initially thought, since a new rumor suggests that the average range graphics cards will not require the NVIDIA 12VHPWR connector (That the one who is the powerful use RTX 5090 and RTX 5080).
On the other hand, as Videocardz reports, a new rumor of Brother Pan Talks Computers (BPTC) states that the next two GPUs will use 8 -pin standard power connectors. BPTC is a Chinese website that seems to have an internal knowledge about Zotac, a component company that does (among other things) third -party GPUs. While this is still an unconfirmed rumor, there could be something really.
The same rumor suggests that the NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 graphics cards will require 650 W (PSU) power supply units, much less than the PSU demands of 850W of RTX 5080’s.
Less update, less to spend
If all this seems like a load of numbers and jargon, do not worry. Essentially, if this rumor is correct, it should be good news for people who consider the RTX 5060 TI or RTX 5060, since it seems that you will not have to update your PSU or buy new cables.
This will make the update to the GPUs easier and less expensive because if you need to update your PSU to admit the new GPU, you would need to spend extra money, and because the power supply is used to feed several parts of your PC, exchanging you can Being a frustrating experience that requires a lot of time: believe me.
As with the previous GPU XX60, as well as the RTX 4060 and RTX 3060, the RTX 5060 TI and RTX 506 will probably be aimed at the conscious players of the budget, so it is likely that the fact that you probably do not need to buy A new PSU will undoubtedly be welcome. In addition, it would certainly make them a good selection of value (assuming that the price, which has not been confirmed, is correct).
Of course, there are warnings for this. First, all this is rumor and speculation, so we will not know with certainty until Nvidia gives us more information about these cards (a recent rumor suggests that they will be launched in March).
In addition, as Videcardz points out, if the RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 will require a 650W power supply, that is an increase in the 550W requirements of RTX 4060 and RTX 4060 TI. This means that some people may still need to update their PSU to use these GPUs, and that will drastically reduce the value proposition for those players.
With luck, we will soon discover it when NVIDIA provides more information about these very anticipated GPUs, especially because RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 have run out and are difficult to find.
