Skytech RTX 5060 Ti Gaming PC Launched at $1,249.99

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card was unveiled on April 16, marking its entry as the most budget-friendly Blackwell GPU on the market. However, its launch was more of a "paper" event, with actual retail units scarce and often sold at a premium. If you're on the hunt for a gaming PC featuring this new GPU, you're in luck. Prebuilt gaming PCs with the RTX 5060 Ti are readily available and surprisingly affordable. The most budget-friendly options we've come across are from Skytech, listed on Amazon, starting at an impressive $1,249.99. This is a fantastic deal for a current-generation gaming rig that excels at both 1080p and 1440p resolutions.

The RTX 5060 Ti, succeeding the RTX 4060 Ti, offers a notable 15%-20% performance boost in gaming. This improvement surpasses the generational leap seen with the RTX 5070 over the RTX 4070. From a value standpoint, the RTX 5060 Ti is the top choice for 1080p gaming among Blackwell cards, and it's also well-equipped to handle 1440p gaming, especially with DLSS 4 enabled. While the RTX 5070 is more powerful, prebuilt systems with this GPU start at a steep $1,700 to $1,800, making the RTX 5060 Ti a much more economical option for gaming at 1440p or below.

GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Review by James Archer (Rock Paper Shotgun)

"The RTX 5060 Ti upholds the esteemed tradition of the XX60 Ti series, delivering smooth and cost-effective performance at 1440p. Compared to the pricier RTX 5070, it significantly enhances native resolution frame rates before the application of DLSS, marking a step forward from the 40 series.

Thus, the RTX 5060 Ti stands out as one of the most successful RTX 50 series cards, and it's the current go-to option for budget-conscious gamers aiming for 1440p performance."
