AMD's initial RX 9060 benchmark results reveal a competitive performance when matched against Nvidia's RTX 5060 non-XT GPU.
The graphics card market is abuzz with excitement as AMD has announced the upcoming release of the RX 9060. This mid-range offering is causing a stir, promising to challenge the dominance of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, currently hailed as the best mid-range graphics card.
The first benchmarks for the RX 9060, although limited, show promising results. In some games, it performs better than the RTX 5060, while in others, it matches or falls slightly behind. Notably, the RTX 5050 consistently trails behind the new AMD card, and not by a particularly close margin. If priced individually, the RX 9060 could potentially be a more affordable option than the RTX 5050.
The RX 9060, like its contemporaries the RTX 5060, RTX 5050, and one of the RX 9060 XT versions, is an 8 GB card. However, it has fewer compute units and slower memory compared to the RX 9060 XT. The smaller size and lower specifications could make it a more appealing choice for those seeking a balance between performance and affordability.
Despite the allure of high-end cards like the RTX 5070 Ti or RX 9070 XT, many gamers are on the hunt for affordable graphics cards. The RX 9060, if priced right, could be a game-changer in the mid-range market.
As of my last update in October 2023, there is no specific information available about the AMD RX 9060. AMD has released several GPUs, including the RX 6000 series, but details about an RX 9060 are not yet available. It is expected that any new GPU release from AMD would be announced with specific launch dates and pricing. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it's recommended to check AMD's official website or reputable tech news sources.
Meanwhile, in the world of hardware journalism, Jacob Fox, a hardware junkie and philosophy nerd, continues to make waves. A Hardware Writer for PCGamesN, Jacob has also worked with TechRadar, Pocket-lint, and PC Gamer. His interest in hardware began when he was 12 years old and bought his first gaming PC. Despite a negative experience with a local PC repair store when he bought his first gaming PC, Jacob has since vowed never to let another person build his rig.
