I Can’t Review GPUs that Don’t Exist... RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti

We wanted to review the new RTX 5060 and RTX 5060Ti, the problem was Nvidia didn't send us any... Makes it kind of tough to make a review about. So instead we decided to rant about the ENTIRE 50 series launch and how it has frustrated not just consumers, but reviewers as well.

Purchases made through some store links may provide some compensation to Linus Media Group.

EVGA saw all this coming and say hell naw we aint putting our name on that.

[GoodGamer]

We love NVIDIA hiding the performance of the 8GB cards at launch so that consumers can't see the effects of the limited VRAM.

[ilovemonkeyos]

This isn't even a paper launch.
It's a thought launch.

[LabCat]

Intel missed a huge opportunity cancelling the higher-end Battlemage cards, given what has happened in the GPU space since. I know they did it due to budgetary reasons, but it still sucks.

Thank you, Linus and team, for being honest and impartial with the viewers.

[MechProfesional]

I actually respect y’all for posting this instead of a review that would give us no useful information! These types of videos is what helps confirm to me that the LTT team is dedicated to giving us the best information that they possibly can! Keep doing the good work!

[StefanEtienneTheVerrgeRep]

The human eye can't even see GPU's.

[CraftComputing]

My card arrived Thursday afternoon. Guess who doesn't have a video up today because I wasn't going to do 30hr of work in 2 days....

[TecnoguiaCol]

Linus is becoming a more critical and objective influencer.. that was something not so visible in the past as he earned many negative opinions against his content… but now makes him more attractive to follow honestly…

[RobloxianX]

Nvidia has found a way to sell an RT 5030 for $400

[spaceman]

I love when Linus goes beast mode in an intro… no one is safe.

[joeyr]

They want you to say the 5060ti 16gb is great and then release the 8gb version and the 5060 and most consumers dont understand the difference and will only see the 16gb reviews.

[Flokke]

It's such a refreshing change to hear you guys talk about the woes of the DLSS/Frame Gen rather than everyone else touting how it's such an uptick of frame rate. I was getting sick playing a game the other day because of how jarringly bad frame gen was at predicting things in movement. I genuinely wouldn't recommend relying on it if you have motion sickness because it can definitely cause it to flare up if you do.

[slap_k_man]

i forgot that the 5060 was even coming out today so dont feel bad for not having a review

[LuPaulo_]

now we're seeing the true face of nvidia that EVGA saw some years ago

[bnorvs]

NVIDIA is acting like a car dealership

[Theatsign]

GTX 1070 (8gb of VRAM) $379 Released in 2016
RTX 5060 Ti (8gb of VRAM) $379
Released in 2025
Do you see a problem here

[PocketDrummer]

I saved up $1, 000 to buy an RTX 5080 when it came out (I know, not the actual price), but I ended up buying an RX 9070 XT because I was tired of Nvidia's bullshit.

[sumda-eq]

Days go by, and we see clearly why EVGA is not producing GPUs

[davidcoombs]

You guys remember that board meeting in the Nvida had in 2021? The one where they were making tons of money off of a lack of supply? And then they strategized about how do it artificially without a pandemic and make tons of money… I think they found a way.

"red white blue green and ORANGE" im crying
