8 GB GDDR7 frame buffer
This card carries 8 GB of GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus running at 28 Gbps. The configuration feeds the RTX 5060 GPU with enough bandwidth for 1440p gaming and creative workloads. The 3840 CUDA cores operate at a 2527 MHz boost clock. A PCIe 5.0 x16 interface running at x8 completes the data path.
1440p gaming and entry creative work
The memory capacity and bus width suit players targeting high-refresh 1440p and creators starting with GPU-accelerated apps. Builds that need more VRAM for 4K textures, heavy 3D scenes or large language models should consider cards with wider buses and larger buffers. The dual-fan Ventus cooler fits standard mid-tower cases without special clearance planning.
PCIe 5.0 x16 running at x8 lanes
The card plugs into a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot but negotiates an x8 electrical link. On platforms that only wire the primary slot for x8, performance remains unchanged. Systems limited to PCIe 4.0 will see the link drop to 4.0 x8, which may marginally affect bandwidth-heavy titles. Verify your motherboard lane allocation before purchase.

Questions about this item
Does my motherboard need a PCI Express 5.0 x16 slot to run this card?
The card uses a PCI Express 5.0 x16 interface that operates at x8, so it works in any PCIe x16 slot from version 3.0 upwards.
Can I keep my older monitor that only has HDMI 2.0 while using the card's HDMI 2.1b port?
Yes, the single HDMI 2.1b port is backward compatible with HDMI 2.0 displays, and the three DisplayPort 2.1b ports also support older DisplayPort versions.
How do I confirm the boost clock is reaching 2527 MHz after I install the drivers?
Open the NVIDIA overlay or a monitoring tool like GPU-Z while a 3D load is running; the reported boost clock should show 2527 MHz.
