Third-party reference ↗Start with the tradeoffs
Consider NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB for
- 16 GB at last on the x60 class
- DLSS 4 Multi-Frame Generation
- Sub-200 W TBP
Tradeoff: 8 GB SKU exists and confuses buyers
Consider AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT for
- 16 GB GDDR6 variant future-proofs against VRAM-hungry games
- 32 CU RDNA 4 with DisplayPort 2.1a + PCIe 5.0
- Strong 1440p value at $349 (16 GB) / $299 (8 GB)
Tradeoff: 192-bit memory bus narrower than RX 9070 series
