AMD this week released its Radeon RX 9070 GRE 1440p gaming GPU for $549 (check our review here). If you can find it for that price, it's a decent deal. However in case you want to do 1080p gaming and don't want to spend much more than $300, then the MSI Ventus GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB is a great option as it's currently on sale for just $310 (purchase link under the specs table down below). With this you will get close to 80-90% of the GRE's performance at a much lower price.

Cooling on this is handled by a duo of MSI’s TORX Fan 5.0 system which links fan blades together and is said to provide a more stable airflow. That’s paired with a nickel‑plated copper baseplate and redesigned core pipes for faster and better heat conduction away from the core. The backplate on the card isn’t just cosmetic either, as it’s reinforced and vented to improve airflow. Speaking of cosmetics, there is no RGB so if you hate that, this one is probably for you.
