According to the only publicly available sales data from one of Germany's largest retailers, Mindfactory.de, we gain insight into the sales of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and 8 GB models. According to the sum of the units sold, the 16 GB version of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti is outselling the 8 GB version by more than 16 times, which represents a 1,600% difference. Mindfactory lists each GeForce RTX 5060 Ti model with a tag indicating the number of units sold, showing how many units were sold to customers of a specific model. This includes every model that Mindfactory offers, including SKUs from MSI, GIGABYTE, INNO3D, Palit, ZOTAC, ASUS, and other AIC partners. At the time of writing, the 8 GB version of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti model has been sold in 105 instances, compared to 1675 units sold of the 16 GB version.

It is important to note that sales performance on 8 GB and 16 GB SKUs are based on Mindfactory, which is only a single regional retailer, showing only a single part of the GPU sales story. We even considered supply as an issue for the massive difference in unit sales; however, availability of both GPU SKUs is good, as checked on Geizhals.de. Most models are available in 20+ quantities, showing that availability is not hindering sales. This is not the typical AMD vs. NVIDIA sales comparison. It's within a product family, highlighting something much more specific. It signals that gamers are willing to spend a couple of dozen Euros extra to get the 16 GB version of their chosen GPU, essentially "future proofing" their system for some more demanding games. Especially as many features, like path tracing, demand more VRAM, having an extra 8 GB of memory buffer allows the GPU to run modern games with ease. For gamers who want to sell their system down the road for an upgrade, the 16 GB version will also be more prized in the secondary markets like eBay and others. We launched a new poll here, so make sure to let us know your opinion on which card you would purchase, as the battle for ever-greater VRAM capacity continues.

Gearbox and 2K today opened Borderlands 4 pre-orders, with the rather unexpected $69.99 base game price resulting in a simultaneous sigh of relief following the gaming industry's recent move towards $80 AAA games. Following the pre-order launch, Borderlands 4's Steam page revealed the game's minimum system requirements as a bit of a mixed bag. According to the Steam page, the new looter shooter will only run on an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070, but this seems to largely be related to VRAM, since the minimum requirements also mentions that 8 GB is the minimum VRAM amount. An SSD and an eight-core CPU—listed as the AMD Ryzen 2700X or Intel Core i7-9700—will also be mandatory for Borderlands 4. Even the recommended specifications for Borderlands 4 are rather moderate, with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 and Radeon RX 6800 XT making the cut.

In addition to the reasonable PC specs, news also broke about an ECHO-4 Collector's Edition, a curious edition to the line-up of special edition bundles for Borderlands 4 that seems to be exclusive to GameStop for now. The Echo-4 Collector's Edition bundle is a host of physical Borderlands 4 memorabilia, including a cloth map of Kairos, an eight-inch Echo-4 figure with LED lights, a Vault symbol necklace, a card with five SHiFT codes for Borderlands 4 golden keys, and four double-sided lithography art prints—all for $149.99. The one glaring omission from the Echo-4 bundle is an actual game key for Borderlands 4. That is clearly labelled as "sold separately" on the GameStop page.

EMTEK, a South Korean manufacturer, has quietly added two new SKUs to its current-gen MIRACLE WHITE D7 graphics card series. As of late last week, their custom GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB and 8 GB models have turned up for sale at domestic e-tail outlets. The higher capacity option starts off at 725,900 KRW (~$535 USD), while its slightly cheaper sibling demands at least 639,660 KRW (~$472 USD). As covered on TechPowerUp in the recent past, EMTEK products are not well known properties in the West—due to regional retail exclusivity.

Unsurprisingly, the latest MIRACLE WHITE cards carry the same overall visual theme as slightly older offerings. Unlike the slightly larger GeForce RTX 5070 D7 12 GB SKU, EMTEK has readied a slimmer 2-slot thick cooling solution (versus 2.5) with no integrated lighting zones. Promotional renders show a triple-fan array and relatively substantial heatsink tempering a (not white) stubby custom PCB. Gigabyte pulled off something similar on a GB206 "Blackwell" GPU-based EAGLE model, albeit with only one fan positioned over crucial hardware. As per usual (for this series), the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti MIRACLE WHITE D7 models utilize NVIDIA's reference specifications.

Post-Computex 2025, another hint about NVIDIA's next rung of current-gen mobile graphics cards has emerged online. Mid-week, harukaze5719 shared an intriguing screenshot of PCI IDs, accompanied by a brief message: "2d80-2dff = GB207." Most of the captured information is common knowledge, but an unreleased model was present. The "GeForce RTX 5050 Max-Q/Mobile" entry will likely translate into real life laptop/notebook form by mid-summer.

harukaze5719's leaked list seems to confirm the future deployment of a "GB207M" GPU die—likely the smallest and least potent iteration of Team Green's "Blackwell" gaming line. According to fresh reportage, a desktop sibling is supposedly being lined up for launch in July. A late April theory suggested AMD's preparing of RDNA 4 mobile "Radeon RX 9000M" GPUs; the least powerful options—reportedly based on a Navi 44 die—could compete with NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop design. Rival timelines are unclear, but manufacturing partners (Lenovo, LG, MSI, Razer etc.) seem to be prepping a plethora of Team Green-based portable gaming devices.

Kuroutoshikou has updated its custom AMD graphics card portfolio with brand-new Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB options. As covered in the recent past, this Japanese brand seems to source card designs from better known manufacturers—namely PowerColor/PC Partner and GALAX. Their latest offerings are unstickered black Reaper cards, albeit not in overclocked form—Kuroutoshikou has opted for Team Red's reference settings. A stamped PowerColor logo is still present on the largely featureless design's I/O shield.

When looking through Kuroutoshikou's catalog, several familiar current and past-gen unbadged Hellhound, Fighter and Low Profile models are present and accounted for. A minimalist aesthetic extends to retail packaging; the brand's tasteful signature box sports a mostly brushed gold-effect theme. Their Blade and Soul NEO crossover signalled a break from the norm—boringly, character illustrations were not applied to shroud or backplate pieces. Unsurprisingly, Kuroutoshikou products are exclusive to the Japanese PC hardware market. Fortunately, comprehensive distribution of nigh-identical PowerColor IPs is in effect across most of the globe.

Perusers of the NVIDIA US Marketplace noticed a listing of an "Acme GeForce RTX 4040 8 GB BRICK Edition" product. Prior to a fresh removal, this mystery item was not in stock—reflecting the short supply of many GeForce RTX 50-series offerings. An advertised £$0.00" price indicates internal placeholder or jokey origins. After all, graphics card-related scams have involved the swiping of genuine articles—craftily replaced with similarly weighted substitutes. In some cases actual bricks, or—very recently—multiple cross-body backpacks stuffed into retail packages. According to news reports, NVIDIA's past-gen BRICK SKU is equipped with an impressive set of amusing features: "durable casing, passive cooling, absolute silence, and zero dependency on drivers." On a serious note, Team Green's desktop "Ada Lovelace" gaming card generation never dipped below the GeForce RTX 4060 tier. TechPowerUp's GPU database lists an unreleased GeForce RTX 4050 model—leakers believe that a direct successor will turn up in July.

Prior to early May, the existence of AMD's Radeon RX 9060 XT 8 GB GDDR6 model seemed to be in question. Discerning graphics card buyers tend to opt for larger pools of VRAM. In the modern era, 12 GB or 16 GB options are preferred in budget-to-mid-range segments. Additionally, media outlets are growing weary with a continued delivery of new-gen 8 GB offerings. Yesterday, Digital Foundry's Richard Leadbetter expressed a similar sentiment: "unhappily, AMD did not sample the 8 GB version of the (Radeon RX 9060 XT) card—perhaps because it knows the kind of reception it would receive from a tech press that are mostly united about the need for 8 GB cards to be shown the door." The site's Technology Editor was not alone in voicing frustrations about certain conditions that apply to international members of the media.

Yesterday, Linus Tech Tips (LTT) pulled back a major curtain. Their leaking of an alleged "official review guideline" demonstrates some level of exerting too much control. LTT shared a screenshot of AMD's "commitment to the press" (see below). On the subject of evaluators gaining access to the cheaper (baseline MSRP: $299) Navi 44 XT GPU-based card, a liaison stated: "as for the 8 GB models, AMD has enabled global reviews of both 16 GB and 8 GB models of the Radeon RX 9060 XT based on regional market demand. So in short, yes, there are some other global publications that are receiving 8 GB models for testing." VideoCardz's tracking of day one critiques reveals an almost complete seeding of 16 GB variants (starting at $349). Vitally, TechPowerUp's W1zzard will be reaching into his own pocket(s). As outlined in his reviews of various better equipped options: "since it wasn't possible to get an 8 GB model for review, everyone focused on 16 GB models. I'll buy one of course as soon as possible, to get you the crucial info how it performs." Back in April, (on his own dime) TPU's resident GPU critic acquired a Gainward GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB retail specimen. At the time, NVIDIA caught plenty of flak—only GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB models were distributed to reviewers and influencers.

NVIDIA is preparing some of the final SKUs for its GeForce RTX 50 series "Blackwell" graphics cards, with the last entry being the least powerful entry-level GeForce RTX 5050 GPU. The RTX 5050 is based on GB207 SKU with 2,560 CUDA cores. Running on a 128-bit but, it carries 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, with for now unknown memory bandwidth. It carries a 130 W TDP, meaning that some improvements have been made from the previous generation RTX 4050 desktop GPU. For comparison, the last-generation RTX 4050 also had 2,560 CUDA cores, but had 6 GB of memory and 100 W TDP. Given 30% higher TDP and higher memory capacity, the Blackwell revision should give decent performance bump even with the similar CUDA core configuration. As the launch is rumored for July, we are standing by for more information about performance and price targets NVIDIA envisions.

Unlike certain rival manufacturers, XFX is keeping it simple with its product range of custom Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics cards. According to pre-launch information, entry-level Yeston GAEA and PowerColor Reaper models seem to sport slight specification differences—with 16 GB variants gaining a slight advantage in terms of game and boost clocks (over 8 GB relatives). According to XFX's Radeon RX 9060 series landing page, all Mercury OC and Swift OC SKUs share the same fundamentals. As mentioned in yesterday's coverage of the North American AIB's dual-fan offerings, identical "game clock up to 2780 MHz" and "boost clock up to 3320 MHz" factory settings are in effect across all Navi 44 XT GPU-based products.

The veteran AMD board partner's blanket approach deserves merit; many PC hardware community members are advocates of the KISS (keep it simple, stupid) design/build principle. On the flip side, XFX could be shooting itself in the foot. Budget-conscious buyers will likely opt for the quickest/cheapest Swift OC SKU, thus making flagship Mercury OC models a tough sell. For an upcharge (not yet known), you get a much larger + stealthy-looking cooling solution, and a full-length strip of white LED lighting. VideoCardz believes that the Radeon RX 9060 XT Mercury OC design does not utilize a vapor chamber-based system. Additionally, they surmise that AMD Navi 44 die yields are healthy—given the total overclocked status of upcoming Mercury and Swift cards.

In 2025, MSI and ASUS seem to be actively engaged in a graphics card product range competition. So far, the Taiwanese manufacturers have launched multiple barebones/budget, mid-range, sub-flagship, and ultra-premium graphics card designs—mostly spanning NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50-series. At Computex 2025, MSI unveiled a compelling "Retro Line"—by pulling from its back catalog, the veteran hardware firm can deploy extra varieties and flavors for the modern era. Certain PC hardware enthusiasts will have fond memories of MSI's mid-2000s graphics card portfolio—in particular, single-fan model options. VideoCardz has highlighted a pleasing ultra-compact form factor revival; powered by Team Green's GB206 "Blackwell" GPU. At the time of writing, MSI's PR department has not published any promo material.

Instead, a dedicated product page describes a prime "Retro Line" offering: "Cyclone is back. A legacy reborn for a new era—MSI CYCLONE returns with a frosted snow camo design that blends nostalgic charm with modern aesthetics, along with high-efficiency cooling performance." The brand's GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB CYCLONE OC SKU appears to be distinct from a similarly proportioned demonstration unit (presented at Computex, with an integrated display). Unlike their single-fan GeForce RTX 5060 8G INSPIRE ITX card design, MSI's updated CYCLONE model features an open-plan layout. According to an official description: "(our) thermal design concept mirrors the power of a cyclone storm, featuring an advanced aluminium-extruded sunflower radiator, dense fins, and two high-efficiency heat pipes that rapidly dissipate heat from the GPU and surrounding components." Apparently, this diminutive cooler is robust enough to temper an overclocked GPU.

Around mid-April, an insider report suggested that AMD's Radeon RX 9060 XT GPU was capable of boosting up to 3.3 GHz. That specification leak has materialized in real life; across a group of board partner examples. Last week, ASRock confirmed that its triple-fan Radeon RX 9060 XT Steel Legend cards can achieve "boost clocks of up to 3320 MHz." Similarly, Sapphire's overengineered Nitro+ flagship option is reportedly just as capable. XFX has joined in on the fun; as demonstrated by a product landing page that covers several factory overclocked Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB custom card designs.

Interestingly, the North American board partner has implemented the same clock speeds across triple and dual-fan Swift OC SKUs. Identikit info—of "game clock up to 2780 MHz" and "boost clock up to 3320 MHz"—is mentioned throughout official listings. XFX's new-gen dual-fan Swift design was low-key unveiled during the early days of RDNA 4. VideoCardz reckons that a lot of Team Red AIBs are not going to stick with a baseline 150 W TDP; instead company engineers are opting for ranges between 170 W and 180 W. AMD's maximum TDP ceiling for the Navi 44 (XT) GPU is 182 W. We hope that a decent number of XFX evaluation samples have been shipped to TechPowerUp HQ for review purposes.

PowerColor introduced four custom Radeon RX 9060 XT options during Computex 2025; consisting of standard black mid-range Hellhound and entry-level Reaper models. The dark 16 GB and 8 GB launch lineup will be joined by Spectral White sibling in the near future. The manufacturer's China website was updated with three pale alternatives at some point last week. Currently, only the Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB Hellhound Spectral White SKU has made tracks over to the Taiwanese brand's global web presence. The company's Navi 44 XT GPU-based portfolio is not expected to welcome premium-tier Red Devil entries, so the current collection—of seven distinct offerings—will suffice.

Curiously, the two Reaper models seem to differ in terms of clock speeds. As noted by VideoCardz, this specification disparity reflects a recently reported difference between Yeston's Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB GAEA SKUs. Almost akin to patterns exhibited by the Chinese AIB's baseline MSRP conformant products, the PowerColor Reaper 16 GB card seems to boast greater game and boost clock digits when compared to its 8 GB sibling: +90 MHz and 100 MHz (respectively). At first, Yeston's GAEA spec charts were believed to contain placeholder info or anomalous data. The appearances of comparable PowerColor examples indicate an advantageous position for certain 16 GB GDDR6 VRAM-equipped models.

Earlier in the week, Yeston revealed a sci-fi/cyberpunk character-themed Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB Game Ace SKU. Eager followers of the Chinese brand were wondering whether additional custom designs—based on AMD's Navi 44 XT GPU—were in the pipeline, possibly ready in time for an official June 5 launch. In Yeston's case, they expect to start shipping on June 7—exclusively for the Chinese market. Fortunately, several dual-fan "GAEA" and triple-fan "Game Ace White" models have turned up on Yeston's JD.com storefront. VideoCardz has pored over the fundamentals, and quickly realized that there are key differences—in terms of GPU clock speeds—when cross-referencing entry-level/barebones GAEA 16 GB and 8 GB card specifications.

The latter variant seems to exist as Yeston's absolute baseline MSRP option; its pre-order tag is 2499 RMB, including VAT. Curiously, pre-launch info seems to show the 16 GB sibling (2899 RMB, inc. VAT) possessing elevated boost and game clocks: 3230 MHz and 2620 GHz (respectively). The lesser model makes do with Team Red's reference figures: 3130 MHz and 2530 MHz (respectively). VideoCardz believes that this is an isolated case; they have not stumbled upon similar spec disparities between product family members—be it with other AIBs or within Yeston's stable. It could be safe to assume that Yeston's product pages contain inaccurate or placeholder numbers.

AMD's "Radeon Software for Linux 25.10.1" release notes mention the introduction of support for three important ASIC SKUs: RX 9060 XT, AI PRO R9700, and RX 9070 GRE. Two of these models are still awaiting release; the TechPowerUp team spent time with demonstration samples at the recently concluded Computex 2025 trade show. Coincidentally, the special v25.10.1 update became available on the same day as Team Red's big (May 21) presentation. During that day's proceedings, the company committed themselves to providing ROCm support for freshly unveiled graphics products.

Interestingly, it has taken a number of weeks to get the China market exclusive Radeon RX 9070 GRE 12 GB card up and running under Linux environments. GPU industry watchers are still wondering whether this mid-range option will trickle out to global markets; akin to the staggered trail made by the RDNA 3 generation's Radeon RX 7900 GRE (around early 2024). Team Red's open-source software team has readied support almost two weeks ahead of the launch of Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB models. The workstation-grade Radeon AI PRO R9700 32 GB model is expected to arrive at some point in July.

NVIDIA's oft-leaked GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile 8 GB GPU did not make a debut appearance at last week's Computex trade show. Given the very recent launch of GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB laptops, truly cost-conscious buyers will need to wait patiently for the next wave of even cheaper portable "Blackwell" hardware. Mid-way through the month, a British e-tailer inadvertently published pre-launch prices. Lenovo's least expensive option—utilizing a GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile card—sported a (likely placeholder) tag of £1149.97 (inc. VAT). So far, a lot of pre-release information has been sourced from official websites or webstores.

Yesterday, VideoCardz shared another NDA-buster—courtesy of Acer's "Predator and Nitro Gaming Laptop GPU Power Specifications page." At the time of writing, offending items are no longer present within this list. Prior to removal, three configurable Nitro AI laptop models (16, 16S, and 18) were visible with GeForce RTX 5050 specifications (alongside RTX 5060, 5070 and 5070 Ti options). Only clock speed and TGP data points were logged by the notorious investigator (see below). Currently, TechPowerUp's GPU database entry contains speculative information—a "GB207" GPU identifier was unearthed a while ago, but some insiders reckon that Team Green's GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile design will be based on "GB206" silicon. Additionally, debates continue to rage over the selection of GDDR7 or GDDR6 VRAM. So far, all launched tiers of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50-series have emerged with GDDR7 memory modules.

Prior to AMD's official unveiling of the Radeon RX 9060 XT series, Sapphire's Computex booth teased a forthcoming lineup of custom graphics card options. Hours later, the TechPowerUp crew inspected freshly wall-mounted specimens. To the surprise of many, the Hong Kong-based manufacturer is readying a premium Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB NITRO+ SKU for launch time (on June 5). The usual suspects—in PULSE and PURE guises—were also exhibited within the walls of the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Centre. Not long after the closing of ceremonies, Sapphire China's JD.com store has opened up pre-orders for six launch day products.

Yesterday, a VideoCardz investigative piece delved into pre-release price points (including VAT). Keen potential customers can secure finalized retail units via a deposit system; demanding a 50 RMB (~$7 USD) upfront fee. Unsurprisingly, the largest tag is affixed to Sapphire's triple-fan 16 GB NITRO+ model—3299 RMB (~$458 USD). This top-tier option sits 800 RMB above Team Red's suggested guideline. The AIB's barebones dual-fan Radeon RX 9060 XT PULSE 8 GB package adheres to official MSRP: 2499 RMB (~$347 USD). Their PULSE 16 GB model sits almost in the middle of the lineup—in terms of pricing—at 2899 RMB (~$402 USD). VideoCardz believes that another PULSE color/finish variant will emerge, at some point post-launch—bringing the total number of items up to seven distinct products.

During a recent Gigabyte Nan-Ping factory tour, members of the media/press encountered trays of brand-new bare motherboards and graphics cards. HWCooling's Jan Olšan noticed the presence of a not-yet-launched RDNA 4 product. Fortunately, the manufacturer granted photo access (two examples are below). A full report outlined multiple products and production pipelines, but Olšan's scoop serves as a nice preview of things to come. We anticipate TechPowerUp's W1zzard de-shrouding of numerous custom Radeon RX 9060 XT designs, early on next month. Prior to the publication of comprehensive evaluations, HWCooling's article provided an early insight: "a wild Radeon RX 9060 XT appears…take note of the graphics card in the top-right corner of the first lot of PCBs—this is likely the first publicly shown PCB of the Radeon RX 9060 XT, which, technically speaking, may still be under NDA. So enjoy this privileged look at the exposed Navi 44 chip."

Olšan linked the factory specimen to a freshly revealed design: "the card will go on sale June 5, with reviews a day earlier. Its design matches AMD's official renderings, and its identity is further pointed at by the unusual three display connectors. This should be the PCB for the Gaming version of the card, or more specifically, the Gaming OC model with three fans. The cooler will significantly overhang the PCB, with a pass-through window under the last fan." Last week, the TechPowerUp team spent hands-on time with Gigabyte's premium Radeon RX 9060 XT Gaming OC SKU. Prior to Computex 2025, product registration information pointed to the Taiwanese manufacturer readying Gaming OC 16 GB and 8 GB variants. Curiously, the company's RDNA 4 custom card portfolio is represented by a lone ultra-premium AORUS ELITE flagship option and various triple-fan Gaming OC models.

Manli just announced their RTX 5060 cards in two variants: Nebula and Polar Fox. Based on NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture, these cards pack 3,840 CUDA cores, 8 GB of GDDR7 memory running at 28 Gbps, DLSS 4 support, and 5th-generation Tensor Cores. The compact Manli Nebula GeForce RTX 5060 model measures 211 mm x 120 mm x 41 mm, runs at 2280 MHz (base) / 2497 MHz (boost) with 145 W power draw and sports a 9 cm dual-fan cooling design in a two slot format.

The slightly bigger Polar Fox GeForce RTX 5060 OC version measures 240 mm x 126 mm x 50 mm and features higher boost clocks at 2280 MHz (base) / 2550 MHz (boost). It uses 155 W, comes in a 2.5-slot format with enhanced cooling, sporting Manli's well-known anime-styled design that strives to catch users' attention. For output, both graphics cards offer three DisplayPort and one HDMI connectors. Manli did not provide information regarding pricing or availability.

Earlier today, the Sapphire Japan social media account shared an intriguing teaser photo. As expected, the Hong Kong-based manufacturer has (representative) feet on the ground in Taipei, Taiwan. Currently, their Computex booth's main purpose is to show off already launched custom AMD RDNA 4 products—namely Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 cards. According to Team Red's official schedule, new items will be debuted on-stage tomorrow—insiders believe that the oft-leaked Radeon RX 9060 XT model will be unveiled by Jack Huynh, and board partners.

The Japanese Sapphire office commented on pre-game conditions: "I received a very interesting image from the site. Um...It says something like "tomorrow, the 21st, from 12:01pm (1:01pm in Japan?)" I wonder what it could be." Their photo upload shows five placeholder placards; two with longer profiles—suggesting triple-fan configurations. The three other options seem to be dual-fan in nature. Printed material outlines an imminent "21 May, 12:01 PM" reveal. Despite fairly strict conditions, other AIBs have already presented designs (online). Yesterday, industry watchers noticed Acer's previewing of a Nitro Radeon RX 9060 XT OC 16 GB SKU. Given the total number of "temporary" wall-mounted items on display, Sapphire could be readying various mid-range (PURE) and budget (PULSE) models.

Inno3D is exhibiting many already released graphics card products at their Computex 2025 booth, but TechPowerUp's day zero visit focused on an intriguing wall-mounted demo unit. Earlier today, NVIDIA announced the official launch of its affordable GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB desktop and laptop designs. Prior to full-on introduction, media outlets have expressed dissatisfaction regarding Team Green's "Blackwell" GPU entry-mainstream review conditions. Currently, many professional reviewers are "on-site" in Taiwan. At this rate, the publication of in-depth evaluations will occur following the conclusion of this week's extremely important trade event.

The Inno3D GeForce RTX 5060 TWIN X2 OC White SKU reuses a familiar dual-fan setup; as featured on readily available GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB options (black/silver or white/silver). Interestingly, the manufacturer also extends this dual-slot thick design into triple-fan territories (for RTX 5060 Ti and above). The TechPowerUp GPU database does not allude to any Inno3D GeForce RTX 5060 (non-Ti) models being outfitted with a third fan. As discussed in a mid-April PR piece, Inno3D engineers have drummed up a custom PCB layout. Despite the implementation of a very shallow overclock, the TWIN X2 cooling solution is not expected to struggle—when tasked with the tempering of Team Green's GB206 GPU die.

On May 9, the South Korean Radio Agency (RRA) logged four unannounced ASRock Radeon RX 9060 XT SKUs. Since early Spring, harukaze5719 has kept a watchful eye on intriguing pre-launch registrations. For example, they discovered Gigabyte's Gaming OC 16 GB and 8 GB models over a month ago. AMD's board partners seem to be prepping custom options; well in advance of next week's teased unveiling (at Computex 2025). ASRock seems to be cutting things quite fine, with their registering of (allegedly) Navi 44 XT GPU-based Steel Legend and Challenger models. Rumors of a canceled AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 8 GB (GDDR6) variant emerged a while back, but certain insiders have insisted that this cheaper option will arrive alongside a 16 GB sibling.

Recent RRA filings indicate an upcoming two-pronged approach, involving a good number of AIBs. Buoyed by harukaze5719's fresh findings, VideoCardz carried out additional detective work. They soon unearthed "in stock" ASRock Steel Legend and Challenger factory overclocked Radeon RX 9060 XT cards. Apparently, a Vietnamese store is already courting local client interest—prices are not visible on the unnamed shop's webstore, but staffers are reportedly "encouraging customers to inquire" about costs of ownership. Gaming GPU enthusiasts will recall the amusingly extra early arrival of custom Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 retail stock in Europe; in anticipation of a supposedly scuppered January launch window. Unlike its main rival, AMD seems to be running on schedule with its next wave of RDNA 4 gaming products.

In an almost uncanny case of recent history repeating itself, AMD has kicked off another RDNA 4 new product teaser campaign. Today's reminder—regarding Jack Huynh's upcoming Computex presentation—included a promotional render of a stubbier dual-fan Radeon RX 9000 Series card design. Casting our memories back to late January (2025), Team Red rolled out an ill-timed advertisement—not long after the official delay of Radeon RX 9070 XT and non-XT cards. Despite denying the existence of "Made-By-AMD" (MBA) reference designs, AMD staffers were likely enraged by Chinese black market channel offerings of alleged "real deal examples." Days after first wave RDNA 4's March 6 global launch, a triple-fan specimen was outed.

Throughout early Q2, insiders and members of the Chiphell forum have played around with Radeon RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 MBA cards. The latter unit (see photo below) seems to utilize a dual-fan configuration in a fairly long enclosure format. Team Red's latest promo post likely points to a forthcoming unveiling of Radeon RX 9060 XT partner models, but curious industry observers will be wondering whether the shorter reference design actually exists in real life. As per usual, a tiny disclaimer claims otherwise: "Artistic Render. Not Available For Purchase." So far, leaks have suggested the presence of Acer, ASUS, GIGABYTE, and XFX custom options during introductory proceedings. Today's refresher outlined upcoming new product categories and partner contributions: "join AMD on May 21 as we reveal what's next in gaming, AI PCs, and more. (Our) SVP and GM of Computing and Graphics Group, along with industry leaders and partners showcase what is built to power the next level."

Late last week, Amazon's prematurely published product pages provided an early insight into XFX's alleged implementation of a 3320 MHz boost clock—90 MHz above AMD's speculated reference setting for not-yet-official Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB graphics cards. A couple of hours ago, momomo_us shared a fresher set of leaked specifications. The tenured PC tech industry observer outlined two separate tranches of unnamed hardware clocks—presumably linked to factory overclocked Radeon RX 9060 XT variants: "up to 3320 MHz, Game: 2780 MHz" and "up to 3290 MHz, Game: 2700 MHz." As interpreted by VideoCardz, these numbers align with older RDNA 4 rumors—previously, insiders claimed that Team Red's Navi 44 GPU was capable of clocking higher than the larger "Navi 48" sibling. According to their investigative article: "new information (indicates) that the RX 9060 XT's game clock is actually higher than the boost clock of the RX 9070 (non-XT)...The highest boost clock reported for the RX 9060 XT so far is 3320 MHz, which significantly exceeds the RX 9070 XT's 3100 MHz found on its fastest variants."

The latest momomo_us bulletin contains mostly repeated information, but graphics card analysts were confounded by the mentioning of a PCIe 5.0 x16 bus Interface. Prior disclosures have theorized the utilization of PCIe 5.0 x8; as listed within TechPowerUp's GPU database entry. VideoCardz weighed in with some credence: "small GPUs like Navi 44 typically don't require wider interfaces, as performance gains are minimal. However, with PCIe 5.0, using only 8 lanes would result in slightly reduced performance on PCIe 4.0 systems, something already seen with the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB variant. By choosing a wider interface, AMD may be attempting to avoid similar issues." Leading up to AMD's debuting of first wave RDNA 4 gaming cards, opposing speculators fought over the company's selection of PCIe 4.0 or PCIe 5.0 standards. A public delivery of finalized Radeon RX 9060 XT specifications is likely due on May 21, during Computex 2025.
