I just tested the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, and it beats the 5070 sometimes

Now that Nvidia has lifted the lid on its latest sub-$500 gaming GPU, I’ve had the chance to run some Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti benchmarks in the latest games, and some of the results are startling. The new GPU doesn’t just beat its predecessor, the RTX 4060 Ti, but in some games it even significantly outperforms the 5070. What’s its secret? That’ll be its extra 4GB of GDDR7 VRAM.

I’ll be writing a full RTX 5060 Ti review in the very near future, but in the meantime, I thought it was worth sharing some of the key findings from benchmarking this new Nvidia GPU. With a price of $429 for the 16GB card, it’s a good $120 cheaper than the 5070 at MSRP (assuming you can find stock at that price, of course), yet in some games the 5060 Ti is the best graphics card of the two.
