NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060

The GeForce RTX 5060 is an NVIDIA GPU that was released in 2025 May. This GPU is very good at gaming with a score of 8206 points in our PC benchmark.

It has a total memory bandwidth of 437 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 128 bits.

In terms of clock speed, the GeForce RTX 5060 GPU core runs at a frequency of 2280 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 2497 MHz. The clock runs at a speed called the clock speed. It dictates the number of updates per second that the GPU can process. Overclocking a chip, which means increasing the clock speed will improve the performance. However, thermals and power efficiency may be diminished.

As for rendering API support, the GeForce RTX 5060 supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.6 features are supported. Newer APIs are usually more efficient, allowing for better performance in games and better graphical effects.

Power and thermals for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 are a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 145 watts. This measures the amount of heat the GPU produces when running at 100%. This isn't a measure of power consumption, but it's a good estimate.
