Amazon is offering a $324 Nvidia RTX 5060 GPU deal in a lightning sale, making it the cheapest model available — 1080p gaming on a budget
Perfect for 1080p and some 1440p gaming
The original RTX 5060 GPU listed in this article is no longer available at the low price. The next best option for an equivalent graphics card is the $333.44 priced Asus Prime RTX 5060.
Amazon is offering up another limited-time quick sale on an Nvidia RTX graphics card. Were not sure how long this deal will be around, as it's based on a hidden number of stock, and at this time of writing, 8% has already sold. It's currently the cheapest RTX 5060 GPU available at this price. You can grab yourself the latest Asus GeForce RTX 5060 Gaming OC graphics card directly from Amazon for $324.60. If you've been keeping an eye out for a new GPU, you may already know that this current deal is $15 cheaper than the next lowest-priced RTX 5060 card at $339, and $145 cheaper than its list price of $469.99. It's still $24 more than the original MSRP launch price, unfortunately, but the 50-series GPUs didn't stay near the MSRP for very long, if at all, for the later, more expensive board-partner variants.
The RTX 5060 is one of the lower-budgeted graphics card SKUs from Nvidia and its board partners. A great card for 1080p gaming, with the ability to dip its toes into 1440p gaming too. The card comes with only 8GB of GDDR7 VRAM, which is adequate for many game titles but can easily be maxed out at higher resolutions in graphics-heavy games. So some tweaking of graphical settings will be needed to optimise performance. Being an Nvidia 50-series card, does, however, also give you access to the latest DLSS software technology. Features such as Multi-Frame-Generation can help to smooth out frame rates, but that can be at the cost of overall fidelity.
The RTX 5060 Gaming OC Edition sports a clock speed of 2640 MHz, 3,840CUDA cores, and comes with 8GB of GDDR7 VRAM. This card comes factory overclocked with a triple-fan cooling solution. Connect to your monitor via any of the three DisplayPorts or the HDMI interface.
We didn't get the opportunity to benchmark test and review the RTX 5060 at the time of launch, but since then, we've found the GPU to have slight generational improvements over the previous-gen RTX 4060, sitting as expected in the lower half of any performance tables, as it is a more budget-oriented step into the 50-series GPU ecosystem.
We're not sure how quickly this limited-time Amazon deal will last, so just in case the original deal expires extremely quickly, this is the next best-priced RTX 5060 graphics card available.
A twin-fan GPU with a factory overclock and boost clock of 2527 MHz. The RTX 5060 comes with 3,840CUDA cores and 8GB of GDDR7 VRAM on this SKU.
You will need to complete a $20 rebate card for this price.
This isn't the lowest-ever price for an RTX 5060 GPU according to our price index and price comparison sites such as PC Partpicker and Camelcamelcamel, but at $324.60, this Asus TUF Gaming Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 OC Edition graphics card is currently the cheapest one going. The only real concern with this GPU is the amount of VRAM onboard. 8GB is fine for the majority of games at 1080p, but games will start to exceed that 8GB if you start pumping up the resolution and fidelity settings. Definitely something to consider when purchasing this card.

fluxcapacitormb Actually this GPU will game in 4k just fine. Don’t max out texture quality because of 8GB vram and then use current drivers w current dlss dll’s and this thing will do 4k pretty sick.Reply
I have an MSI 4060 laptop and run everything in 4k….even forza 6 w rt off and a couple settings maxed out (like shaders and deformable terrain) in dlss ultra performance mode it looks amazing and stays around 60-70fps ish.
Dont let them tell you this isnt a 4k gpu thats not accurate. -

Venivik 1060 3GB was considered perfect for 1080p, and it was. I still run a 6gb version in my living room htpc and it's still true.Reply
Games look about 15% since then and 5 generations later... Still 1080, but you need 8GB?
This ISN'T 1080P gaming on a budget. This is super premium and unnecessary for 1080p.
This isn't OK for such a prominent tech site, it's bad advice. -
