All speculation points towards the RTX 5060 series launching incredibly soon. When it comes to the 5060 and 5060 Ti release date, we expect to see it arrive this April, especially off the back of AIDA64 benchmark tool support recently. And now, early listings spotted online suggest that one brand in particular, Gigabyte, may be favoring the new mid-range cards over AMD’s equivalents.

AMD’s next GPUs are expected to belong to the RX 9060 series, which the brand has announced for Q2 this year, but that’s all we’ve heard (officially) so far. Within this same leak, RX 9060 XT cards have been mentioned, by they are outnumbered by Nvidia.

As spotted by prominent leaker harukaze5719 on X, Gigabyte is preparing several SKUs for both generations of mid-range cards. According to the leak, the manufacturer has just two RX 9060 XT cards lined up, while it has a total of seven Nvidia 5060 Ti GPUs on the way.

Likewise, a leak from I_Leak_VN on X suggests that MSI has nine 5060 Ti cards coming. We don’t expect any AMD cards from MSI, considering it was dropped as a board partner for the RX 9070 launch. All of these models are yet to be confirmed by the corresponding brands, so be sure to take this leak with a pinch of salt – not all of these details may be finalized.

Gigabyte

MSI

  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VANGUARD SOC
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G GAMING TRIO OC WHITE
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G GAMING TRIO OC
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G INSPIRE 2X OC
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 3X OC
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 2X OC WHITE
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 2X OC PLUS
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 2X PLUS
  • GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G SHADOW 2X OC

We can decipher that the RX 9060 XT will be available in both 8GB and 16GB models, just like how the 5060 Ti is expected to be, though these new leaks focus on the 16GB models. The leaks seem to suggest that Gigabyte is pushing for more RTX 5060 Ti cards, which hopefully translates into wider availability than we’ve seen so far from the RTX 50 series – this is pure speculation on our part. On the flip side, it’s possible that the 5060 series is simply closer to launch, and more SKUs are ready to hit the market.
