This year’s Amazon Prime Big Deal Days has been pretty rubbish for graphics card savings. Unfortunate, as if there’s one type of PC component that needs to get down the affordability gym and lose some money weight, it’s GPUs. Nevertheless, a spot of search bar digging has revealed one halfway decent discount on Amazon US, and it just so happens to be on one of the better cards of the current generation: the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB.
An 11% slashing brings this relatively VRAM rich model – in the form of a triple-fanned Gigabyte design – from $470 to $420, which further research confirms to be scraping the bottom end of 16GB RTX 5060 Ti prices.
US deal:
On top of fully supporting DLSS 4, the RTX 5060 Ti can run just about anything at max-quality 1080p, and can comfortably reach high framerates in most 1440p games too. It’s also one of the better mid-rangers for ray tracing, and while I haven’t tested the cheaper 8GB version in our benchmarking rig, word on the street is it’s a marked downgrade. 16GB is certainly better from a futureproofing standpoint, anyway.
One compounding, maybe even confounding, issue is strong rumourings of upgraded RTX 50 Super GPUs. GPUs which could – if whispers are to be believed – show up either late this year or early 2026. However, all of the evidence so far points to the Super treatment only being applied to the RTX 5070 and above, which would leave the RTX 5060 Ti without such a speedy replacement. Your call, reader.
