Notes on 7 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, Launch price: NVIDIA sells no Founders Edition of this card; $379 is the starting MSRP for partner cards.
  2. 2NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, Recommended PSU: NVIDIA's minimum for a PC with a Ryzen 9 9950X; other systems may need a different PSU.
  3. 3NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, Power connectors: No Founders Edition exists; most partner cards use one 8-pin socket, a few use a 16-pin 12V-2x6 instead.
  4. 4NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, Power connectors: One 16-pin 12V-2x6 socket; an adapter for two 8-pin cables comes in the box.
  5. 5NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, PCIe lanes: Only 8 lanes: on a PCIe 4.0 or 3.0 board it gets half or a quarter of the PCIe 5.0 bandwidth.
  6. 6NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1b at the full UHBR20 rate.
  7. 7NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, DisplayPort version: DisplayPort 2.1b at the full UHBR20 rate.

Performance and Compute

The RTX 5070 comes ahead with 6,144 shader cores and 30.9 TFLOPS of FP32 compute. This raw power handles demanding modern titles and heavy graphics workloads much faster than the competing card.

Meanwhile, the RTX 5060 Ti 8GB counters with a higher boost clock of 2,572 MHz and a base clock of 2,407 MHz. While it trails in total cores, it maintains high clock speeds for everyday rendering tasks.

Memory and Bandwidth

The RTX 5070 delivers a major upgrade in memory capacity, offering 12 GB of GDDR7 video memory alongside a 192-bit bus width. This wider bus generates a hefty 672 GB/s of memory bandwidth and a 48 MB last-level cache.

On the other side, the RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is restricted to 8 GB of video memory and a 128-bit bus width. Buyers on older PCIe 3.0 or 4.0 boards should note its 8 lanes link, which can hurt performance once the 8 GB capacity overflows.

Power and System Requirements

The RTX 5060 Ti 8GB draws less energy with a board power of 180 W and a recommended PSU of 600 W. Most partner cards use a standard 8-pin power connector, though a few use a 16-pin 12V-2x6 instead.

Stepping up to the RTX 5070 raises board power to 250 W and requires a 650 W power supply. It uses a single 16-pin 12V-2x6 socket, though an adapter for two 8-pin cables is included in the box.

The Verdict

Buy the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB if you want to spend only $379 on a lower-power card with a smaller 180 W draw. Buy the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 if you need 12 GB of video memory, 16 PCIe lanes, and stronger compute power.
