ASUS - DUAL NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti OC Edition 16GB GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 Graphics Card - Black

I've been using this for local AI workloads and I'm very happy with the speed, but what surprised me is that it is a very low power device when sitting idle. On average it's using around 5 watts idle and only gets to around 150watts under load. It gets around ~115 – 140 tok/s on Small/Mid (1.7B to 12B Parameters) like gemma-4-12b and qwen3.5-9b.

Really solid workhorse of a GPU. The 5060 line get a bad rap from people whose main hobby is drooling over benchmark numbers on a screen rather than actually gaming and who think anything less than a 5080 is basically garbage, but in the real world this will give you smooth sailing and great graphics on basically any game. Would be nice if it were actually MSRP, but well, we gotta flood the world with a memory hungry technology nobody wants.

I have nothing but good things. This graphics card has worked splendidly.

Everything is expensive right now. So dropping enough cash to get you a PS5 (last year) will get you alot. I threw this in my PC which hasnt gotten an upgrade since i bought my 1080ti in 2020. Now everything runs again. I get 144hz on everything and it supports nvidia dlss. And thats with my old motherboard and cpu bottlenecking my performance. It even uses less power, so i only needed half the connectors as the 1080ti.

Excellent product and in flawless condition. It greatly handles ai tasks and generation.
