Should I get the RTX 5060 now or wait for the 5070?

I'm trying to decide whether to buy the RTX 5060 with 8GB today, wait until the end of the month for the 5060 with 16GB, or hold off until March to get the 5070. My main concern isGPU prices possibly increasing.

Hey! It really depends on what you plan to do with your system. If it's mainly for 1080p gaming, streaming, or light editing, the 5060 is likely enough, especially if you're running PCI-E 4.0. If you can, go for the 5060 Ti for a bit more power!

Before deciding, make sure to consider what your current setup is. Sometimes upgrading the CPU can give you better performance than just upgrading the GPU. I found that swapping to an Intel B580 was cheaper and gave me more VRAM than the GPUs you mentioned.
TechieTurtle99: Unfortunately, Intel GPUs aren't available in my country right now.
