Introducing the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GBThe Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB wraps up the Blackwell RTX 50-series GPU family, more or less — along with the 5060 Ti 16GB we're reviewing today, the announced RTX 5060 series also has a 5060 Ti 8GB card, and next month will bring the vanilla RTX 5060. Blackwell RTX GPUs land at various places on our list of the best graphics cards, provided you can actually find one in stock at your favorite retailer for a not-obscene price.

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB: Great at MSRP, but retail prices could be much higherNvidia's RTX 5060 Ti 16GB delivers a solid combination of performance for the suggested $429 base MSRP. However, as we've seen with every other GPU launch of the past five months, retail prices can be much higher.

Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and vanilla RTX 5060 announcement today officially marks the end of the Blackwell RTX 50-series GPU launch — the first stage, at least. Second-stage refreshes will likely happen early next year, and if our guess is correct, we'll probably see 24Gb (3GB) GDDR7 modules on all of the cards, providing 50% more VRAM across the full suite. But for now, we have the RTX 5060 Ti in both 16GB and 8GB trim, along with the RTX 5060 with 8GB of memory.

Should you buy a used graphics card? After dealing with cryptomining-induced GPU shortages two generations back, the prior generation graphics cards were reasonably available for the past couple of years... and then AI-induced shortages hit, retail availability became a problem, and GPU prices shot up. Finding one of the best graphics cards has become a difficult proposition, at least for certain models, leading many to consider the used graphics card market.

(Image credit: Tom's Hardware)Buying any of the best graphics cards right now feels like an exercise in futility. For that matter, buying virtually any graphics card at present tends to be a bad idea. We've scoured a variety of online markets to see what sort of prices we could find, and MSRPs are effectively non-existent — laughably so. Everything worth buying sells almost immediately, likely more often than not to scalper bots.

Best graphics cards fully updated... a few surprisingly decent prices have emerged in the past couple of days (e.g. 5070 at MSRP!?), but most cards remain overpriced. https://t.co/s40cA4IsX4
MSI RTX 5070 Shadow for $549 in stock direct from MSI (won't last long!) https://t.co/mBdmVRSIf7
$337 ASRock Intel Arc B580... 20 available, from Canada, so $16 shipping to me. That's still better than a lot of GPU offers out there right now, assuming the seller can be trusted. https://t.co/NGA0TPfGK0
