After months of waiting, Nvidia has officially announced the RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti. These will serve as budget options in the latest RTX 50-series lineup, with the Ti variant launching tomorrow, April 16th.

At the moment, we're expecting demand for the RTX 5060 Ti to be high. So, make sure you have your favorite retailer's page open as soon as the card launches to increase your chances of getting a unit on day one. To help you out, we'll be counting down the hours until its release, so you'll know exactly when it goes live. We also recommend checking out our Where to Buy RTX 5060 Ti page, where we've listed all the major retailers that will be selling this GPU.

Has the RTX 5060 Ti launch time been confirmed?

Nvidia has not revealed the exact launch time for the RTX 5060 Ti. The company only stated that it will be released on April 16th, without providing a specific time. However, based on previous hardware launches, including the last four RTX 50-series cards, the RTX 5060 Ti will most likely be available for purchase starting at 10 AM EST.

To help you out, we've listed the launch times for different regions below. We've also added a countdown clock so you can keep track of the remaining time. Keep in mind that if you don't see the countdown clock, it means the card has already launched and is available for purchase from online retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg (if it's still in stock).

  • US Pacific (PDT): 6 AM
  • US Eastern (EDT): 9 AM
  • United Kingdom (BST): 2 PM
  • Central Europe (CEST): 3 PM
  • India (IST): 6:30 PM
  • Sydney, Australia (AEST): 11 PM
  • Auckland, New Zealand (NZST): 1 AM, April 17th

How long will the RTX 5060 Ti remain in stock after release?

Many Nvidia fans and PC enthusiasts have been eagerly waiting for the RTX 5060 Ti to arrive. Nvidia claims that the card will offer significantly better performance than its predecessor, the RTX 4060 Ti, especially with the latest DLSS technologies. Because of this, we’re expecting the card to be sold out quickly across all popular retailers.

It is, however, important to keep in mind that there will be two variants of the card available – 8 GB and 16 GB. There’s only a difference of $50 between the two, so most people might prefer picking up the 16 GB model instead, as it appears to provide better value for money.
