Hey everyone! I'm planning to upgrade my graphics card and I'm torn between the 16GB versions of the 9060 XT and the 5060 Ti. There's a price difference of about $40 in my country. I'm curious if I should stick with AMD or spend a bit extra on Nvidia. What do you think?

Honestly, if you're fretting over a $40 difference, just buy what fits your budget best. The 5060 Ti is marginally better, about 5% according to TPU. But consider if that extra cash could be used on upgrades like a cooler or a better case. It’s about what you can afford and what matters most in your setup.
Totally agree with you!
That's solid advice!
For just $40 more, I’d probably go with the 5060 Ti. It’s around 5% faster in regular gaming and up to 20% better in ray tracing. Plus, it has better overclocking potential, superior upscaling, and improved frame generation. It even handles path tracing pretty well at lower resolutions, which is awesome. If the price gap were larger, say about $100, I’d lean towards the 9060 XT, but at this price, the 5060 Ti is the smarter choice.
I’m leaning toward the 5060 Ti too since I'm in the middle of upgrading from another Nvidia card.
