According to recent updates, it looks like the launch schedule for the RTX 5060 series GPUs has hit a snag. Word on the street is that the RTX 5060 lineup, which was initially anticipated for a March release with sales kicking off in April, now faces a delay, pushing the launch back by a few weeks.
There’s chatter about the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti hitting the shelves by mid-April, with the RTX 5060 trailing behind by a month, aiming for a mid-May debut. Interestingly, this shake-up comes hot on the heels of the RTX 5070’s launch, throwing fuel on the rumor fire about what’s causing the holdup.
While details are still under wraps, Board Channels has confirmed that NVIDIA’s board partners have been briefed on this change. Official confirmation is still pending, but given NVIDIA’s silence on the RTX 5060 release so far, the buzz seems credible.
An insider scoop, shared via email with all AIC partners by NVIDIA, does suggest new timelines. All brands have been advised to brace for the RTX 5060 Ti 16G / 8G to see the light of day around mid-April, while the core RTX 5060 series is expected to join the party in mid-May. For now, specific dates remain under wraps, even among NVIDIA’s closest partners.
In a potential twist, the release of NVIDIA’s RTX 5060 series may coincide with AMD’s unveiling of their RX 9060 series. AMD seems to be gearing up with the RX 9060 XT and RX 9060 cards, which will reportedly offer both 8 GB and 16 GB variants. This makes them direct contenders against NVIDIA’s looming 8 GB and 16 GB RTX 5060 Ti offerings. Although the exact arrival time for the RX 9060 series is still a mystery, whispers suggest a second-quarter launch.
As for the specs, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti aims to build on the legacy of the RTX 4060 Ti, featuring 4608 CUDA Cores, options of 8 or 16 GB of GDDR7 VRAM, and a power consumption of 180W. Meanwhile, the RTX 5060 plans to take over from the RTX 4060 with 3840 CUDA Cores, 8 GB of GDDR7 VRAM, and a 150W TDP. There’s also a tantalizing rumor of a 12 GB RTX 5060 configuration floating around, not yet confirmed but certainly a possibility, which could offer a competitive edge over AMD’s anticipated 8 GB variant.
These juicier details keep the industry on its toes, as enthusiasts eagerly await more information. As always, keep an ear to the ground for official announcements.
