NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti (16 GB)

This 16 GB version of the RTX 5060 Ti trades the base model's frame-buffer worries for genuine VRAM headroom, at 180 W on PCIe 5 and a compact 220.5 mm. It suits 1080p and 1440p builds wanting room to spare, particularly at MSRP. It is not a 4K card, so plan around 1080p/1440p targets.
