NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB vs AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB
Graphics card comparison for gaming — benchmark scores, estimated framerates and which one suits your build.
The short answer
Too close to matter. The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB and AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB land within 3.8% of each other for gaming. Buy whichever is cheaper, or whichever fits the platform you already own.
Gap measured from estimated framerates across 4 games, not from benchmark scores — scores rank parts reliably but compress the distance between two fast ones.
Benchmark scores
| Measure | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB | AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB |
|---|---|---|
| G3D Mark | 22,625 | 20,085 |
| Faster than | 90% of 268 | 86% of 268 |
Estimated FPS at 1440p
Both measured against the same reference processor — a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D — so the graphics card is the variable being tested. Ranges, not exact figures. Measured at 1440p: at 1080p even a fast reference processor caps both cards, and the two columns come back identical.
| Game | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB | AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB |
|---|---|---|
| Fortnite | 219–364 GPU | 211–351 GPU |
| CS:GO | 354–590 GPU | 341–568 GPU |
| GTA V | 135–225 GPU | 130–217 GPU |
| PUBG | 167–279 GPU | 161–268 GPU |
Which suits your build?
These figures hold a reference processor constant. Your own build decides the answer: a faster graphics card buys nothing if the other component is already the limit. Run both against your actual hardware:
