"This is the most modest entry from Nvidia's 50 Series that I think is worth your time, but that doesn't mean that you'll be disappointed. The 16GB card can chug right along in most modern games at 1080p, beating 60 FPS in every game in our test suite with the settings cranked up and the ray tracing turned on. It struggled to keep up at 1440p, at least with everything set to ultra, but a little tinkering, or Nvidia's latest tech, can help with that."
"As an RTX 50 Series card, the 5060 TI supports the latest version of DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) which includes Multi-Frame Generation. For every traditionally rendered frame of gameplay, the GPU can use machine learning to generate up to three extra frames with low overhead. The result is a much smoother experience, with big FPS jumps each time you turn up the setting. The tradeoffs are a slight increase in input lag, as well as the occasional tiny artifact,"
The PNY Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti OC is available for $379 at Walmart, a $50–$100 reduction from typical pricing. The card has 16GB of memory and delivers consistently above 60 FPS in modern games at 1080p with high settings and ray tracing enabled. Performance at 1440p is weaker on ultra settings but can be improved with settings adjustments or Nvidia software features. The card supports the latest DLSS with Multi‑Frame Generation, which can generate up to three additional frames per rendered frame to boost smoothness, at the cost of slight input lag and occasional minor artifacts. The PNY model uses a plastic shroud and dual fans, and includes a standard 8‑pin PCIe power connector.
