NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB — Benchmarks & Specs
Short answer: the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB generates a median 71.0 tokens/sec on 7-9B dense models at 4-bit (Q4) under ollama, across 5 cited runs from RunAIHome, ComputingForGeeks, Runyard.dev and LocalLLaMA. Its 16 GB of VRAM holds up to gpt-oss-20b at MXFP4 with an ~8K context, by the Will-It-Run matrix's sizing (14 of 23 models fit). At the $765.99 Amazon price checked 1 h ago (prices change), that is 92.7 tok/s per $1,000, the SpecPicks Value Index.
- Median speed 71.0 tok/s 5 cited runs, 7-9B at Q4, ollama
- Fits in 16 GB up to gpt-oss-20b at MXFP4 → at ~8K context; 14 of 23 models in the Will-It-Run matrix
- Lowest linked price $765.99 Amazon, checked ; prices change
- Value Index 92.7 tok/s per $1,000 median speed ÷ the price above
Bottom line: how fast is the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB?
SpecPicks median: 71.0 tokens/sec across 5 cited single-user runs of 7-9B dense models at 4-bit (Q4) under ollama (range 16.9–90.2 tok/s), from RunAIHome, ComputingForGeeks, Runyard.dev (2 runs), LocalLLaMA. At the $765.99 Amazon price of the cheapest linked listing (checked ; prices change), that is a SpecPicks Value Index of 92.7 tok/s per $1,000. At 1440p High, the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB averages 74 fps in Dying Light 2: Stay Human, per Gamers Nexus. For local LLM inference it generates 42.3 tokens/sec running qwen2.5:14b at q4_K_M under ollama, per ComputingForGeeks. In 3DMark Fire Strike it scores 41,427 points, per LanOC Reviews. It has 16 GB of VRAM, and the qwen2.5:14b run above (14.8B parameters) is the largest model on file at 4-bit quantization on this card. Larger models have no sourced run on file.
Every figure above is a row in the tables below, and each row links out to the review or public benchmark database the number was taken from; the SpecPicks median is computed here from the runs it names, each a row in the AI table, and the per-$1,000 figure divides it by the dated listing price. SpecPicks aggregates published measurements; it does not report first-party benchmark runs.
