Lots of VRAM for little money! With the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, Nvidia introduces its most affordable entry-level graphics card into the Blackwell generation thus far—and equips it with a particularly generous VRAM capacity for its mid-range category: an impressive 16 GB of GDDR7. But is this amount sufficient for today's demanding games, high-resolution scenarios, and future gaming titles? We thoroughly tested the Asus TUF Gaming RTX 5060 Ti OC through various benchmarks, real-world games, and application scenarios to clearly demonstrate the actual capabilities of this GPU.

The Nvidia RTX 5070 is the latest Blackwell GPU to suffer a melted power cable and damaged connector

The Nvidia RTX 5090 isn't the only Blackwell graphics card with power-related concerns. On social media, an RTX 5070 owner alarmed readers with images of a melted power cable. Although these examples are rare, a load balancing issue may lead to more damaged RTX 50 series cards.

Lucky Walmart shoppers getting RTX 50 series GPUs below MSRP

Walmart’s online only policy for RTX 50 series GPUs seems to be creating a loophole where lucky customers are able to grab the latest cards at prices lower than MSRP. A couple of such cases have been reported on Reddit.
