I currently have a GTX 1650 paired with an i5-10400F. I'm wondering if I should go ahead and buy an RTX 5060 or if it would be smarter to wait for the 5060 Ti or even the 5070, maybe for about a year.

Some folks are suggesting a Radeon 9060XT 16GB, which is cheaper than the 5060 Ti. But, from what I’ve seen, both the 5060 Ti and the 9060XT perform well, yet the 5060 Ti has the upper hand with better DLSS support and drivers. It's worth paying a bit more if you want NVIDIA, in my opinion!
True! NVIDIA's support and performance can be worth the extra cash.
If you're sticking to NVIDIA, definitely get the Ti version! It tends to outperform the regular versions in most scenarios.
Go for the 5060 Ti if you can! If it fits your budget and you need it now, there's no harm in going for it while waiting doesn't really get you anything.
I’m not fully clued in on the new cards, but can the 5060 really hold its own against something like a 2080 or even 3070? Just wondering if the jump is significant.
If you're okay spending under $300, the 5060 is a solid option unless you're looking to shell out more for the 9060XT, which has been decent for me, even if I'm not a performance junkie.
But remember, prices can fluctuate, so watch out for great deals!
