- A new leak suggests that the RTX 5060 TI variant and NVIDIA will remain in the 128 -bit memory bus of the previous generation.
- This is contrary to other RTX 5000 series GPUs that use higher memory buses
- The rumored use of GDDR7 VRM can be the highlight of its predecessors
Nvidia has not yet finished with its RTX 5000 series GPU line, since its RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 desktop cards are not yet announced on the horizon. However, a new leak has supposedly discovered more of its specifications.
As highlighted by Videocardz, the RTX 5060 TI and RTX 5060 of NVIDIA will use a 128 -bit memory bus, as well as their predecessor, according to a filtered shipping description. This is different from the 192 BITS memory bus 5070, along with the rest of the Blackwell GPU line, which is important to improve VRM performance in the GPUs.
While this may seem disappointing at first sight, the filtered specifications suggest that both GPU will use the GDDR7 memory: the RTX 5060, according to the reports, it has a 8 GB vram GDDR7 capacity, while its counterpart will have 16 GB and 8GB GDDR7 options. As Videocardz suggests, this could be useful as a potential for impulse with much higher speeds and bandwidth over their predecessors, which GDDR6 use in place.
It is worth taking this with a grain of salt: we know that RTX 5060 will eventually be presented, but there is still no confirmation at the end of the Team Green team, so it is worth waiting for the official specifications to come to light.
Ultimately, these input level GPUs and their chances of success in the GPU market will probably depend on prices. With the availability, scale and inflation that are the main problems of NVIDIA with its launch of the RTX 5000 series, the graphic giant can have difficulty convincing consumers to opt for their alignment if the GPUs are difficult to obtain at a retail price.
Regardless of how good or bad they are the new GPU, the price will determine its destination …
It is a sad reality that PC players face the GPU market currently in disorder, and with recent rates mixed with the scale and high demand, I doubt it ends soon.
Unfortunately, it means that the RTX 5060 TI GPUs and not you will probably suffer the same destination (especially if they turn out to be excellent options for budget players). We have seen nvidia and AMD third -party cards that are sold above MSRP in multiple retailers; If Team Green does not make a reference card for any of the next GPU, it could be much worse, since consumers will be completely left at the mercy of retailers and NVIDIA manufacturing partners.
PC games can already be an expensive hobby, and all recent speculation points for this to get worse: in addition to PC hardware, we now also have play prices to worry about, thanks to the absurd game prices of $ 80 of Nintendo (no, I will not shut up about this).
I really hope that Nvidia can surprise consumers with these new cards, since he certainly needs a start for a good impulse. Not only has inflation and price been, but the missing drivers and rop have haunted the Green team since the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 launch. Hopefully a new release can get excited again …
