00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.240
NVIDIA claims that the 5060 Ti is more than 50 times faster than the 1060. And

00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:11.840
if that sounds like a complete lie, that's because it is. Think about it. If

00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:14.080
your 1060 can run a game at 30 FPS, that

00:00:11.840 --> 00:00:20.000
would mean that the 5060 Ti will run it at

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:22.720
1,500 frames per second. How? Well, I'm

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:27.119
assuming is that they said max settings. So, one, they're probably using ray

00:00:24.560 --> 00:00:31.920
tracing, which the 1060 can't do. two, they're probably using the 1060 3 GB

00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:36.079
card, which definitely cannot handle modern games. If you think about it in

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:41.760
that way, where the 1060 is probably getting 2 FPS in this scenario on

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:47.520
average, well, then it makes a little bit more sense that maybe the 5060 Ti is

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:54.320
getting around 100 FPS, though once you take out DLSS 4x frame gen, it's more

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:57.520
like 25. So, does it suck? Let's unbox

00:00:54.320 --> 00:01:01.359
it and find out. This is the PNY 5060Ti

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:02.960
16 GB OC. Just like the 4060 Ti, there's

00:01:01.359 --> 00:01:06.640
going to be two versions, an 8 GB version and a 16 GB version. Which one

00:01:05.199 --> 00:01:10.960
you choose will probably depend on your use case, and we'll talk about that a little bit more later. But let's just

00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:15.520
look at the card itself. It's a flow through cooler design, and it has some

00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:22.560
interesting choices in its construction. One, look at the PCB right here. It's

00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:24.880
like completely blank. They really just

00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:29.920
extended it long enough so that they could make sure that it had enough room

00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.040
for the full PCIe express port. And you can see from the traces on the back that

00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:36.320
this is a 8x card and the rest of this part of the connector is just kind of a

00:01:34.720 --> 00:01:41.680
formality. On the back we have three DisplayPort running at UHBR20 and an

00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:45.040
HDMI port with 2.1B for speedy connections far beyond the capabilities

00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:48.640
of this card. Though I guess with frame gen maybe uh you'll be able to get

00:01:46.880 --> 00:01:52.399
those. In terms of aesthetics, I think this card looks fine. It's pretty basic,

00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:57.200
but that's what you'd expect for these more budget type cards. It does have a

00:01:54.880 --> 00:02:02.240
metal back plate that uh will help with conducting some heat. There are thermal

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.479
pads. It's not just for show. It's a two

00:02:02.240 --> 00:02:08.000
slot card. It could be even thinner, but they made it two slots thick on the back

00:02:06.399 --> 00:02:13.360
plate. And if you want to compare it to a 4060 Ti, we got this one from Asus.

00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:17.760
It's pretty reasonably sized. It's not too long. It's not too thick. Will fit

00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:21.200
into pretty much any standard case. And look at where this power connector is.

00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:25.280
You usually would expect the uh power connector to be at the end of the card

00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:29.599
towards the cutouts for like your cable management, but over here is where the

00:02:27.920 --> 00:02:33.760
power connector is on here, which might actually cause an issue if you have

00:02:31.040 --> 00:02:36.959
short cables because you have to like go all the way here, all the way around,

00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:41.440
all the way to the back where your power supply might be under here. It's not like a bad thing. It's just a little

00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:45.840
weird. You may have noticed on the box that this is a OC version of the card.

00:02:43.920 --> 00:02:50.560
The good news is that that OC version is coming in at the same price. The bad

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:54.400
news is that that OC is also just 4.6%. Which isn't crazy from what we've seen

00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:57.920
from other cards. But just take that into consideration compared to the rest

00:02:56.239 --> 00:03:03.040
of the 5060 Ti specs that we're showing on screen. The 5060 Ti comes with 4,608

00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:09.280
CUDA cores, which is more than the 4060 of last gen, but less than the 3060 Ti

00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:13.360
two gen prior. However, the 5060 CUDA cores and the 4060 CUDA corores are

00:03:11.200 --> 00:03:17.760
essentially identical. So, the real difference in performance is coming from

00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:22.080
improvements to ray tracing, uh, AI, as well as just higher clock speeds in

00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:27.200
general. We also get a bump up to GDDR7. However, on this card, we are still

00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:29.360
limited to a 128 bit bus width. It is

00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:32.400
kind of disappointing, but I think that the whole bus width thing is a little

00:03:30.720 --> 00:03:35.519
bit overblown, and we've yet to see any of these NVIDIA cards be truly

00:03:33.760 --> 00:03:38.720
bottlenecked by their bus width. You're also going to get access to NVIDIA's

00:03:36.959 --> 00:03:43.599
updated video engines that include Envink and Nv. Though you'll only get

00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:47.519
one of each. So, if you're doing really heavy video workloads, you might find

00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:50.480
yourself wanting for a bit more power. And all of this is supposed to be

00:03:48.640 --> 00:03:55.120
powered by 180 W, though they do recommend a 600 W power supply. This OC

00:03:53.599 --> 00:04:00.400
version doesn't have a higher power requirement. I can't speak for other partner models, but it's still a pretty

00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:03.280
low power card. Though, we don't have a 5060 to test and we don't plan on

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:07.760
talking about it too much more in this video. You can infer some idea of its

00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:14.879
performance by looking at how many CUDA cores it has relative to the TI. And the

00:04:11.519 --> 00:04:15.920
TI has about 20% more CUDA cores. So I

00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:20.639
wouldn't be surprised if there's a roughly 20% difference in performance on

00:04:17.919 --> 00:04:25.040
the 5060, maybe even a little bit more, which would be a pretty sizable gap for

00:04:22.880 --> 00:04:32.520
a TI card. And despite the fact that this is an OC model, it is

00:04:27.479 --> 00:04:32.520
MSRP supposedly at $429.

00:04:33.440 --> 00:04:39.440
We'll see if you can get that. But how does it perform? To figure it out, I got

00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:45.280
John from the lab to help me. And we're going to be drag racing a 4060 Ti and a

00:04:41.919 --> 00:04:47.919
B580 against the 5060 Ti. Specifically

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:51.919
460Ti 16 GB. So why B580 instead of an AMD card? Well, AMD doesn't really have

00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:58.000
a price competitor that you can actually buy. The 7700 XT has been discontinued

00:04:55.360 --> 00:05:02.960
and the 9070 is so much more expensive that it doesn't really feel relevant to

00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:05.360
this card. So, the B580 is the only

00:05:02.960 --> 00:05:08.160
other modern competitor, but if you have old cards, we also did some testing on

00:05:06.880 --> 00:05:13.039
those, and we'll talk about that in a little bit. Let's get racing. And I only

00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:17.120
just realized this, but it doesn't use the super melty power connector that's

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:23.120
found on the higherend cards. It's just a usual 8 pin. There's no RGB on this at

00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:28.080
all. I like it. Stealthy. But you know what isn't stealthy? This segue to our

00:05:28.080 --> 00:05:35.120
GPU prices and scalping, it's as good a time as any to buy used. But can you

Essentials bundle. Don't miss it. We'll have it linked down below. First up,

00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:37.360
Cyberpunk 1080p raster, no ray tracing.

00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:40.880
Begins in 3 2 1. So, what are you

00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:43.520
expecting, John? Maybe 10%. Faster than

00:06:40.880 --> 00:06:49.360
the 4060Ti 16. Yeah, but it's supposed to be 50 times faster. Not the 1060.

00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:53.039
Than the 1060. Yes. They didn't say how fast it was compared to the 4060. It's

00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:57.319
got like a pretty solid lead. We're seeing 90 here. Maybe maybe 20%. And

00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:03.960
that's like 118. The B580 isn't slouching, though.

00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:09.120
On the 4060 Ti, we got an average of

00:07:03.960 --> 00:07:13.120
101.12. On the B580, 96.53. And on the

00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:15.360
new hotness, 127.53. Yeah. So, 20% bump.

00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:21.520
That's quite respectable. Even more than 20%. A good start for the 5060 Ti. Let's

00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:23.039
see. 1440p. 3 2 1. I'm mostly hearing I

00:07:21.520 --> 00:07:26.720
think the CPU cooler. So, this is a pretty quiet card, which makes sense cuz

00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:32.000
it has uh a low power draw. It's about the same as the 4060 Ti 16 GB. So, still

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:36.960
quite an efficient card. Wow. It's actually doing pretty good. We have 80

00:07:33.599 --> 00:07:37.880
on the 5060 Ti. And on the 4060 Ti, we

00:07:36.960 --> 00:07:45.280
got 56.98, but it's being beat by the

00:07:41.479 --> 00:07:47.520
B580 at 64. Intel actually scales

00:07:45.280 --> 00:07:53.599
incredibly well. B580 really comes alive with high resolution. Yeah. Interesting.

00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:56.319
And very notable. Like remember that

00:07:53.599 --> 00:08:00.960
this is a much much cheaper card that's competing

00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:02.720
with well the 4060 Ti. It's not quite

00:08:00.960 --> 00:08:07.240
competing with this, but it's much cheaper. Let's take a look at its RT

00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:15.360
performance in returnal. This is at 1080p. 3 2 1 go. 4060 Ti gets 83

00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:18.720
average, 79 average on the B580, and our

00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:21.599
new boy gets 97 average. So again, a

00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:26.319
pretty decent lead, like a 15 to 20ish% lead. That's not bad, especially when

00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:30.400
you consider that this is $70 cheaper than the last gen card. Except for when

00:08:28.479 --> 00:08:35.440
you also think about how the last gen card was um probably the worst value GPU

00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:38.800
of the past decade, which is saying a lot cuz there's been a lot of bad value

00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:43.279
GPUs in the past 10 years. Let's take a moment to go through the rest of the results that we got from Labs. On

00:08:40.959 --> 00:08:49.279
average across our test suite at 1080, we see the 5060 Ti pull a 15-ish% lead

00:08:46.880 --> 00:08:54.560
over the 4060 Ti 16 gig. But against the 470 Super, it's 23% behind, which is

00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:59.760
disappointing when you would consider and usually expect that the nextG car to

00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:04.320
tier down will beat the last gen card to tier up by a healthy margin. Clearly,

00:09:02.399 --> 00:09:07.920
that's just not true. On the one hand, compared to last gen, it's impressive

00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:12.880
that it's getting this much of an uplift with only having 6%ish more CUDA cores,

00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:17.279
but it's still just disappointing. In the 1440 raster, we see pretty similar

00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:23.200
margins with the 5060 Ti getting about 17% uplift over the 4060 Ti 16 GB. I

00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:27.920
hate how I have to specify it. And the RTX 4070 Super pulls away with a

00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:32.640
slightly larger lead. The B580 is supposed to be barely half the price of

00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:35.920
this 5060 Ti. To be getting just 20% less performance while saving that much

00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:39.440
money is pretty compelling. Sure, the B580 has driver problems, but the 5000

00:09:37.920 --> 00:09:44.720
series has been having its own share of driver problems. Not as bad, but it's

00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:48.480
worth considering though. I guess what are your other options? It's not like

00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:54.480
AMD has an option yet. Let's talk about RT though. Rate tracing 1080. The 5060

00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:57.200
Ti, it's worse. The 4060 Ti 16 GB closes

00:09:54.480 --> 00:10:02.080
the gap to closer to 15% while the 5060 Ti trails even further behind the 4070

00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:05.440
Super in ray tracing. For 1440 RT, we kind of felt that that was outside of

00:10:03.680 --> 00:10:09.440
the parameters of what this card is designed for, but we wanted to check it

00:10:06.880 --> 00:10:14.079
out anyways. And in Cyberpunk, well, it gets, you won't believe this, roughly

00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:21.279
30% behind the 4070 Super and roughly 15% in front of the 4060 Ti 16 gig. For

00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:26.560
thermals, the PNY 5060Ti 16 GB performs adequately with a of roughly 69 average

00:10:23.920 --> 00:10:31.519
degrees C temperatures. And in F1, we see a max temp of 68 and a average of

00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:35.839
65. In terms of power draw, we're seeing a similar trend to other Blackwell GPUs

00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:39.519
where yes, they perform around their average rated power rating, but they do

00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:43.680
like to pull a little bit extra with the most we ever saw it pulling across our

00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:49.279
tests being around 213 watts, substantially higher than the 180 watt

00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:52.320
TGP. Wow, NVIDIA, you've done it again.

00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:54.320
You've released another dud and you did

00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:59.839
it all in style while completely lying and misrepresenting your performance.

00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:03.040
Sure, DLSS4 it's good, especially the

00:10:59.839 --> 00:11:05.440
upscaler. Frame gen is neat and works

00:11:03.040 --> 00:11:10.800
nicely in specific scenarios, but comes with its own downsides. So, what is

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:17.839
NVIDIA really offering us here that we don't already have? 50 bucks in savings

00:11:15.839 --> 00:11:22.240
and that's it on a card that already sucks in value. We haven't tested the

00:11:19.680 --> 00:11:27.440
5060Ti 8 gigabyte version, so we don't know if the 16 gigabyte version gets you

00:11:24.880 --> 00:11:30.640
that much more performance, and we also don't know what the 5060 is going to

00:11:28.959 --> 00:11:35.920
look like. So, considering that those have their own price gaps, who knows if

00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:40.959
the 5060 Ti 16 gig is going to be good. The GPU market right now is rough and
