The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti graphics card was unveiled on April 16 as the most budget-friendly Blackwell GPU available. However, its launch was somewhat of a "paper" event, with actual retail units scarce and often marked up significantly. The good news is that if you're in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC featuring this new GPU, you're in luck. There's a plentiful supply of reasonably priced prebuilt gaming PCs on the market. The most affordable options we've spotted are from Skytech, available on Amazon, starting at a competitive price of $1,249.99. This makes for an excellent deal on a current-generation gaming rig suitable for both 1080p and 1440p gaming.

The RTX 5060 Ti steps up as the successor to the RTX 4060 Ti, offering a notable 15%-20% performance boost in gaming. This leap is even more impressive than the improvement seen from the RTX 4070 to the RTX 5070. From a value standpoint, the RTX 5060 Ti is the top Blackwell card for 1080p gaming, yet it's also robust enough to manage 1440p gaming, especially when enhanced with DLSS 4. While the RTX 5070 is more powerful, prebuilt systems featuring it start at $1,700-$1,800, making the RTX 5060 Ti a more cost-effective choice for gamers targeting 1440p or lower resolutions.
GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Review by James Archer (Rock Paper Shotgun)
"The RTX 5060 Ti upholds the esteemed XX60 Ti tradition, delivering smooth and budget-friendly performance at 1440p. Compared to the pricier RTX 5070, it significantly improves native-resolution, pre-DLSS frame rates from the previous 40 series.
Thus, the RTX 5060 Ti stands out as one of the more successful RTX 50 series graphics cards, making it the go-to option for budget-conscious gamers aiming for at least 1440p performance."
