The 16 GB variant is a legitimate 1440p card. The 8 GB one is a trap in 2026.

Live benchmark data
Not enough verified runs yet for a fair pool verdict — averages appear once each side has at least five.
Verdict — RTX 5060 Ti
Buy the 16 GB SKU or don't buy this card. NVIDIA splitting SKUs by VRAM at the same tier is user-hostile — the 8 GB version can't run modern games at the settings the 16 GB one manages.
Verdict — RTX 5060
Perfectly capable for its use case but the 8 GB VRAM ceiling matters in 2026 titles. If you're going to keep this card 4+ years, look at the 9060 XT or the 5060 Ti 16 GB instead.
