NVIDIA Unveils GeForce RTX 5060 Series: Enhanced Gaming Performance with DLSS 4 and Blackwell Architecture
NVIDIA has introduced the GeForce RTX 5060 series, powered by the new Blackwell RTX architecture, designed to revolutionize gaming performance with advanced features such as DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation, neural rendering, and ray tracing. The new lineup includes the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and GeForce RTX 5060, both aimed at delivering significant improvements in gaming experiences.
The Blackwell RTX architecture leverages AI-powered neural shaders and ray tracing capabilities, optimizing the hardware for enhanced graphics and performance. With the integration of DLSS 4, the GeForce RTX 5060 series brings innovations like Super Resolution, Ray Reconstruction, and Multi Frame Generation, which contributes to improved image quality and frame rates.
DLSS 4’s advanced capabilities offer enhanced text clarity, reflection accuracy, and temporal stability, significantly reducing visual artifacts and input latency. Multi Frame Generation, which generates up to three additional frames per traditionally rendered frame, increases frame rates by up to 8X when combined with other DLSS features, further enhancing the overall gaming experience.
The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 offer up to double the performance of their predecessors, thanks to improvements in hardware and the addition of DLSS 4 technologies. These GPUs also bring ray tracing capabilities to the forefront, providing a substantial upgrade for users of older 60-Class and 50-Class GPUs, and introducing new levels of visual fidelity and performance.
Performance Highlights:
- GeForce RTX 5060 Ti: In graphically demanding games like Hogwarts Legacy, the RTX 5060 Ti with DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation outperforms the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti by doubling frame rates, reducing latency, and improving image quality at 1440p with max settings. In titles like A Plague Tale: Requiem and Delta Force, it delivers a 20% performance increase with lower latency compared to previous generation GPUs.
- GeForce RTX 5060: Set to launch in May 2025, the GeForce RTX 5060 offers over 100 FPS at 1080p in graphically intensive titles and over 300 FPS in competitive games like Marvel Rivals. The 5060 series delivers a significant performance boost, particularly for users upgrading from older models like the GeForce GTX 1660 or RTX 2060.
Hardware Specifications:
The RTX 5060 series is equipped with advanced Shader Cores, Tensor Cores, Ray Tracing Cores, and high-speed GDDR7 memory, which work together to deliver enhanced graphics, faster rendering, and superior overall gaming performance. Additionally, the GPUs support efficient video encoding and decoding, providing better quality compared to competing platforms. The series is also compatible with DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20 for high-resolution displays.
Pricing and Availability:
- GeForce RTX 5060 Ti: Available in 8GB and 16GB configurations, starting at Rs. 42,000 in India (USD 379 / Rs. 32,460 approx.). Launched on April 16, 2025.
- GeForce RTX 5060: Starting at Rs. 33,000 in India (USD 299 / Rs. 25,610 approx.). Available in May 2025.
Both models are available in stock-clocked and factory-overclocked versions from various partners, including ASUS, Colorful, Gainward, GALAX, GIGABYTE, INNO3D, KFA2, MSI, Palit, PNY, and ZOTAC, along with system builders.
GeForce RTX 5060 Laptops:
NVIDIA also announced that GeForce RTX 5060-powered laptops, featuring all the desktop innovations, will launch in May 2025, starting at $1,099. These laptops are expected to deliver impressive gaming performance and will be available from major OEMs, with designs as thin as 14.9mm, making them ideal for gamers seeking powerful yet portable systems.
With the launch of the GeForce RTX 5060 series, NVIDIA aims to push the boundaries of gaming performance, offering gamers next-generation capabilities that elevate both visual quality and responsiveness across a wide range of titles.
