Here we present a range of AI and productivity benchmarks, designed to offer insight into the sort of workloads that might be undertaken by someone purchasing this calibre of GPU.
Starting with our Stable Diffusion XL FP16 image generation test, here the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB delivers a 16% gain over the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB. It's also worth pointing out that the RTX 5070 can't even run this test due to its lesser 12GB framebuffer, so it's an ironic victory for the smaller sibling.
Gains do vary when looking at text generation depending on the model used, but using Llama 3.1 results in an impressive 27% uplift over the 4060 Ti 16GB.
Nvidia GPUs are most impressive when looking at Geekbench's Half Precision metric, this time resulting in a 13% gain over the 4060 Ti 16GB.
It's a similar uplift when looking at Blender Benchmark, though the 5060 Ti 16GB is faster than even the 7900 XTX here.
Lastly, V-Ray's GPU benchmark shows another impressive gain for the 5060 Ti 16GB, putting it on par with the RTX 4070 and 35% ahead of its predecessor.
