Notes on 11 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB, Launch price: Launch MSRP was $349, but most 16GB models initially sold higher; Tom's Hardware saw them starting at $389.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's 550 W minimum assumes a Ryzen 9 9950X system; requirements vary with your configuration.
  3. 3NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's minimum for a PC with a Ryzen 9 9950X; it recommends a PCIe CEM 5.1 compliant PSU.
  4. 4NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, Power connectors: Native input is one 8-pin; NVIDIA's 300 W+ PCIe Gen 5 PSU-cable option works via the in-box adapter.
  5. 5AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, HDMI version: AMD's spec page lists HDMI 2.1; its own press release and Notebookcheck state HDMI 2.1a.
  6. 6NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050, DisplayPort version: NVIDIA specifies UHBR20 on these DisplayPort 2.1b outputs.
  7. 7NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1b at UHBR20 on all three DP outputs.
  8. 8AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT, DisplayPort version: Notebookcheck lists the DisplayPort 2.1 link rate as UHBR13.5; AMD notes DP 2.1 support depends on AIB designs.
  9. 9AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB, HDMI outputs: AMD sells no reference card; this is the reference-design I/O. Partner cards can differ (Sapphire Pulse: 2 HDMI, 1 DP).
  10. 10AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB, DisplayPort outputs: AMD sells no reference card; this is the reference-design I/O. Partner cards can differ (Sapphire Pulse: 2 HDMI, 1 DP).
  11. 11NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090, Slot width: The card is 2-slot, but NVIDIA's install guide asks for 3-slot (61 mm) case clearance.
