NVIDIA’s not rolling out the RTX 5060 driver till, uh, May 19th, right when the thing hits the shelves. Weird timing, huh? Like, they don’t want us knowing what’s under the hood until we’ve already bought it. Sneaky? Maybe. Real techie people I follow are raising eyebrows—like the whole vibe’s off, y’know?
So, here we go, counting down the days to this GPU launch, and yet, somehow it feels like we’re prepping for a surprise party we didn’t want. I read somewhere (Igor’s Lab?) that NVIDIA’s pulling this “wait till it’s in stores” move. Reviews? Yeah, good luck with that if you wanna grab it on day one. No driver, no review, right?
And guess what’s happening around then—Computex! Major tech event, for those not in the loop. Most gearheads will be neck-deep in all the flashy new stuff. NVIDIA’s basically like, “Hey, let’s drop this card when everyone is too busy to notice.” Hardware Unboxed even chimed in on Twitter—those guys usually have the inside scoop—and they’re saying the exact same thing. NVIDIA’s playing quiet, shuffling the cards close to their chest.
I get it, gamers usually wait for the YouTubers and bloggers to tell it straight, but this time, you might have to rely on what NVIDIA says, which—if we’re keeping it real—can be a bit rosy. They’re claiming a 25% boost in performance or something, but without the reviews to balance those claims—skepticism, anyone?
Oh, speaking of specs, RTX 5060’s packing 8 GB VRAM. Sounds decent until you realize it’s 2025, and, well, 8 GB feels about as useful as a chocolate teapot in modern gaming. Remember the RTX 5060 Ti flop? Yeah, kinda the same song and dance here.
Anyway, this whole deal—delayed driver, locked reviews, all that—kinda smells like NVIDIA’s worried about something. Do they have something to hide, or are they just messing with our heads? Who knows. Just be ready; this one could be a rollercoaster.
