I'm trying to decide between the 5060 Ti and the 9060 XT for gaming. The 5060 Ti is priced at $450 and the 9060 XT at $350, and both have 16GB versions. Do the features like ray tracing (RT) and DLSS 4 justify the extra $100 for the 5060 Ti?

I say go for the 9060 XT. It's cheaper and performs comparably. Unless you're really into ray tracing, the extra performance isn't essential, and there are plenty of reviews out there to back this up.

A 33% price jump just for a bit better DLSS? No thanks, Iโ€™d stick with the 9060 XT. You're not getting enough for that extra cash.

It really depends on what games you're into. If you just play something like League of Legends, the performance difference won't matter much.

Honestly, I don't think paying $100 more for the 5060 Ti is worth it. It's mostly personal preference here, but I hardly use features like upscaling or ray tracing, so I would go with the cheaper 9060 XT.

RT shouldn't be a big concern in this price range. Plus, FSR is improving a lot, so I don't think spending an extra $100 for DLSS 4 is worth it at all.
