Notes on 5 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's minimum for a PC with a Ryzen 9 9950X; other systems may need a different PSU.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, Power connectors: One 16-pin 12V-2x6 socket; an adapter for two 8-pin cables comes in the box.
  3. 3NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1b at the full UHBR20 rate.
  4. 4NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, Max displays: Standard configuration supports up to 4 simultaneous displays based on the 3 DisplayPort and 1 HDMI port count.
  5. 5NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, Slot width: Calculated from the published 40 mm width (thickness), typically corresponding to a dual-slot form factor.

Performance and power

The RTX 5070 delivers higher raw compute capabilities with 30.9 TFLOPS compared to the 23.7 TFLOPS of the RTX 5060 Ti, making it better suited for demanding workloads. However, the RTX 5060 Ti pulls ahead in efficiency with a lower board power of 180 W and a 500 W recommended PSU, whereas the RTX 5070 requires 250 W and a 650 W PSU.

For connectivity, the RTX 5070 utilizes 16 PCIe lanes and includes DisplayPort 2.1b at the full UHBR20 rate along with HDMI 2.1b. The RTX 5060 Ti relies on 8 PCIe lanes, standard HDMI 2.1, and DisplayPort 2.1 ports.
