MSI RTX 5060 Ti 16G Gaming Trio OC review

An MSI RTX 5060 Ti on top of a PC case and with the rear backplate removed.

There's no Founders Edition for the RTX 5060 Ti. That means it's up to you to decide on a third-party design. We've tested three 16 GB models for the card's launch, including two aiming for the MSRP of $429, but this review covers the only one brave enough or stupid enough to disregard that price tag completely. Easily the highest quality of the lot, it's the MSI RTX 5060 Ti 16G Gaming Trio OC.

Some care and attention have been paid to the design of this triple-fan graphics card. That's clear to me as soon as I remove it from its crinkly packaging and spot the dragon motif cut away from its metal backplate. That's not the sort of flare you'll find on either MSRP card from PNY or Palit, with the latter actually lacking a metal backplate altogether.
