Skytech launches affordable RTX 5060 Ti gaming PCs starting from $1249

If you’ve been eyeing Nvidia’s new RTX 5060 Ti but aren’t thrilled about paying markup prices on the secondary market, you’re not alone. The latest Blackwell GPU launched with all the fanfare and none of the stock — unless you’re willing to pay over MSRP. The better move right now? Pick up a prebuilt PC that actually uses the card, like the new Skytech Shadow and Archangel desktops, both available on Amazon starting at $1,249.99.

• Memory: 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM
• Storage: 1TB NVMe Gen4 SSD
• Motherboard: AM4 Socket Motherboard (specific model may vary)
• Power Supply: 650W 80+ Gold Certified PSU

For just a bit more than the standalone GPU is currently going for on reseller sites, you’re getting a full system ready to run modern games at 1080p and 1440p. The Skytech Shadow includes an AMD Ryzen 5 5500 CPU, 16GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD, all powered by a Gold-rated PSU. Spend a little more and you can step up to the Skytech Archangel, which bumps the CPU to a Ryzen 5 5600X for better per-core performance. These are straightforward, capable builds that’ll get the job done out of the box — and they leave plenty of room to grow.

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core, 12-Thread Processor (3.7GHz base, up to 4.6GHz boost)
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GDDR6 (Blackwell architecture)
• Memory: 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM
• Storage: 1TB NVMe Gen4 SSD
• Motherboard: AM4 Socket Motherboard (specific model may vary)
• Power Supply: 650W 80+ Gold Certified PSU
• Connectivity: Built-in Wi-Fi, Ethernet port, and Bluetooth support
• Operating System: Windows 11 Home 64-bit
• Case: Skytech Archangel ATX Mid-Tower with RGB lighting and tempered glass
• Cooling: Aftermarket CPU air cooler with RGB

And that’s the real strength here: these rigs give you a solid foundation. If I were buying one, I’d start planning an upgrade path almost immediately. The GPU is current-gen, but the platform itself could use a bit more futureproofing. Right now, you can grab a Ryzen 5 7600X and MSI B650 Gaming Plus WiFi motherboard combo for $359.99, down from $399.99. That gets you onto AMD’s latest AM5 socket, with access to PCIe 5.0 and a clear path forward.

Pair that with 32GB of Crucial Pro DDR5 RAM (2x16GB), currently $99.99, and you’ve got a setup that’s faster, more efficient, and easier to upgrade over time. That’s a big step up for not much more money, and it gives you a serious performance ceiling without having to tear the whole build apart.

In short, these Skytech RTX 5060 Ti prebuilts are more than just a way around the current GPU stock issue — they’re a smart jumping-off point. You get a fully playable system today, and a platform that’s easy to upgrade when you’re ready. It’s not just about buying a gaming PC. It’s about buying into a setup you won’t need to replace in 18 months.
