Nvidia's budget-friendly RTX 5060 GPUs are rumored to hit shelves on May 19th, according to VideoCardz's sources. This release window falls just a day before Computex, and a day after AMD's RX 9060 XT series, allegedly. Nvidia is reportedly relaying the embargo timelines to AIB partners as we speak, which is likely the origin of this leak. Since embargoes are always subject to change, we should treat this leak with skepticism.
Last week, Nvidia unveiled the RTX 5060 family of Blackwell GPUs, including the RTX 5060 Ti 8GB/16GB ($429/$379) and the RTX 5060 ($299), with the latter slated for an unspecified launch date next month. Contrary to a typical one-day gap between the review and sales embargoes, VideoCardz reports that for the RTX 5060, both will be lifted on the same day: May 19th. Instead of relying on Nvidia's skewed first-party benchmarks, interested customers should wait for independent reviews before jumping the gun.
