- RTX 5060 Ti is outwardly set to be ‘launched’ come April 16, a brand new rumor insists
- An additional rumor backs up the speculation of this being an on-sale date for the GPU
- It appears to be like like we’ll have to attend till Could for the vanilla RTX 5060 to hit cabinets, although
We’ve a supposed launch date for Nvidia’s RTX 5060 Ti graphics playing cards, with the rumor mill providing up a date of April 16.
This comes from leaker Wxnod, who chips in to the rumor scene on X infrequently, and has supplied right data up to now (though we should, in fact, stay very cautious right here).
5060Ti will probably be launched on April sixteenth at 9pm, together with 8GB and 16GBMarch 22, 2025
As you possibly can see within the above publish, the assertion is that the RTX 5060 Ti will probably be ‘launched’ on April sixteenth at 9pm (I’ll come again to the wording right here, and the lateness of the talked about hour, shortly). And because the grapevine has insisted for a very long time now, we’re advised that this GPU will are available each 8GB and 16GB flavors, and each of those variations will probably be out on that day in mid-April.
This aligns with different latest chatter in regards to the RTX 5060 Ti which claimed precisely this, that these GPUs are due in the midst of April.
These previous rumors additionally theorize that its lesser sibling, the vanilla RTX 5060 (with simply 8GB of VRAM), will arrive a month later in mid-Could, although Wxnod doesn’t point out that card.
Evaluation: Shut at hand
If the rumor mill is correct, Nvidia has delayed all of those RTX 5060 fashions a few instances, maybe – definitely there was hypothesis a few March launch up to now, after which speak of points that wanted to be mounted with the GPU chips. With extra constant chatter now pointing to a launch within the close to future, although, it looks as if that is now firmly within the playing cards.
When you’re questioning in regards to the 9pm launch talked about by the leaker, that is probably because of the embargo timing being from an Asian supply, as a result of as VideoCardz factors out, this aligns with what’d usually be anticipated in that respect.
When Wxnod says ‘launched’ I’d usually take into account that phrasing to point an on-sale date – the graphics playing cards hitting the cabinets – however this might additionally imply the preliminary launch (or reveal) of the RTX 5060 Ti fashions on this context.
Nevertheless, VideoCardz additional flagged up that HKEPC, a Hong Kong-based tech website, additionally shared a leak (once more, add seasoning) claiming that April 16 is the truth is the on-sale date for the RTX 5060 Ti, with an announcement apparently due on April 15. (The RTX 5060 may be revealed on April 15, however gained’t be in retailers till Could, or that’s the speculation).
Regardless of the case, these GPUs are apparently now shut at hand, and what additionally backs this up is VideoCardz additionally discovering the purported ultimate specs of the RTX 5060 Ti. The GPU will supposedly run with 4,608 CUDA Cores, a base clock of 2407MHz and increase to 2572MHz, with an influence utilization of 180W.
The important thing query will probably be: how a lot inventory can Nvidia muster? If the reply seems to be not a lot, then Staff Inexperienced could be clever to attend a bit longer and accumulate extra provide earlier than unleashing these graphics playing cards, that are prone to be far more fashionable than earlier Blackwell GPUs resulting from their affordability. Or danger additional wrath from disgruntled avid gamers who cannot purchase the GPU they need…
However, Nvidia is probably going feeling the warmth from AMD now, with Staff Pink’s new RDNA 4 GPUs doing very nicely and taking again graphics card market share by all accounts. On condition that, Staff Inexperienced might nicely really feel the strain to get its RTX 5060 Ti playing cards on the desk, because it had been, sooner slightly than later. At the moment, relating to the RX 9060’s launch, AMD has solely given us a timeframe of Q2, in order that might be as late as June.
