I'm trying to decide between the 5060 8GB and the 9060 XT 16GB graphics cards. I've watched some YouTube reviews and it seems like the 9060 XT is significantly better. However, the salesman is recommending the 5060, and they're priced similarly, so I'm not sure if he's pushing for a sale or if there's a valid reason. What do you all think?

I'd recommend the 9060 XT 16GB as well. The 5060 just can't compete, especially since game requirements are only getting higher. Trusting that salesman sounds like a bad idea.
The 9060 XT is definitely worth it. Even if the salesman claims the 5060 is cheaper, the long-term benefits of having more VRAM and better performance with the 9060 can't be ignored. Make a wise investment for gaming.
True! And in a few years, you’ll appreciate not having to upgrade again so soon.
Definitely go for the 9060 XT! It has much more power and the extra VRAM will be a huge advantage, especially for future games. Don't let the salesman talk you into the 5060—it’s just not on the same level.
Exactly! 8GB is getting outdated fast. You want something that'll last longer.
Honestly, the 9060 XT is just the better choice. The 8GB in the 5060 won’t cut it for new titles. If you want good performance for the future, the 16GB is the way to go!
If you're planning on gaming seriously, the 9060 XT is the pick. The 5060 might save you some cash upfront, but it won't hold up as well in demanding games. Make the smart choice and get the 16GB!
Exactly! Don't listen to the salesman—it's not worth it to save a few bucks now.
Right? He probably just wants to sell what he has left. I wouldn't want to be stuck with an 8GB card in a few years.
