Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 79079, member: 636"] NVIDIA might kill off the 16 GB version of the RTX 5060 Ti. New rumors say production could stop entirely because of skyrocketing memory prices. The company would supposedly keep making the cheaper eight-gig model instead. This move would free up GDDR7 memory supplies for more important cards like the RTX 5070 and 5070 Ti. Those mid-range models need twelve and sixteen gigs of VRAM to compete with AMD's upcoming offerings. Pausing the higher capacity 5060 Ti helps Nvidia prioritize its fight in that segment. The whole RTX 50 series lineup is apparently facing major production cuts due to component shortages. This would be a big shift, as the sixteen-gig 5060 Ti was seen as a solid value option under four hundred fifty dollars. None of this is official yet, but the story keeps getting worse for that particular sku. [/QUOTE]
