Best RTX 5060 Ti Graphics Card: 10 Ranked, From £419.99 to £1,027.04

By · Updated

Every 16GB card in this round-up carries 128-bit GDDR7 memory, and their stated clocks sit between 2602MHz and 2647MHz — a spread of 45MHz. Yet the RTX 5060 Ti graphics card listings here run from £579.99 to £1,027.04. That is £447.05 more, or 77%, for a difference no benchmark chart will show you. The product pages do not clear it up either. The 8GB ASUS Dual carries "16 GB" in its Graphics Card Ram field. The PNY 16GB card has "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti" written into its Graphics Coprocessor field. The MSI SHADOW 16G says GDDR7 28Gbps in the title and GDDR6 in its description. Two ASUS 16GB cards quote different AI throughput for the same GPU: 767 AI TOPS on one, 759 on the other.

We ranked ten of the best RTX 5060 Ti graphics card options on Amazon on three things you can check yourself: the stated clock speed, the memory type and bus width, and the price on the page. Nothing else counted. Where a listing contradicts itself, we quote both numbers and say so.

MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G SHADOW 2X OC PLUS

rtx 5060 ti graphics card
£579.99 4.6 302 reviews

The cheapest 16GB card here at £579.99, with the same 128-bit GDDR7 memory and 2602MHz clock as every other RTX 5060 Ti graphics card in this list.

Pros

  • £579.99 — the lowest price of any 16GB card in this list
  • 16GB GDDR7 on a 128-bit bus, the same as the £1,027.04 card
  • 2602MHz stated clock, within 45MHz of every other 16GB card here
  • 226mm long, 2 slots, 578g — fits small cases
  • One 8-pin connector, 180W draw, 600W PSU recommended

Cons

  • Description field says GDDR6 while the specs and title say GDDR7
  • PCIe 5.0 interface runs at x8, not x16
  • Only two fans, and no RGB lighting
  • Graphics Description field repeats the GDDR6 claim

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

“This GPU has taken a lot of stick in reviews, but I'm actually finding it pretty good. Using multi frame generation it's a great experience so far, which seems at least on a par with or greater than my old 3080 - which although it's a great GPU is much more power hungry and noisy. Good playable frame rates in 1440p with no noticeable input lag that I can detect so far.”

“I tried first a 9060 XT 16gb, which was like 20% cheaper, and for gaming it was okay but for anything AI related, it was so bad that my 8 years old RTX 2070 was having better performanceSo I returned it and got a 5060 TI 16GB. I should have done so in the first place”

This is the cheapest 16GB card in the round-up at £579.99, and it keeps the same 128-bit GDDR7 memory and the same 2602MHz clock as cards costing far more. For anyone shopping for an RTX 5060 Ti graphics card on a budget, that combination is the whole argument for first place.

In practice it is a small board: 226mm long, 2 slots, 578g, one 8-pin connector and a 180W draw. MSI recommends a 600W PSU. The PCIe 5.0 interface runs at x8, which is normal for this GPU. Outputs are three DisplayPort 2.1b and one HDMI 2.1b, and the dual STORMFORCE fans have a ZERO FROZR 0 RPM mode at light load.

That said, if you want three fans or a longer board, this is not it. Worth noting too: MSI's own text describes "16GB of GDDR6 memory" while the memory type field says GDDR7 — on a card whose title says 28Gbps GDDR7. Three descriptions, one card. Check the memory type before you order.

Second on the 767 AI TOPS it quotes — 8 more than the other ASUS 16GB card here at the same £629.99, on a shorter 22.9cm board.

Pros

  • 767 AI TOPS quoted — 8 more than the other ASUS 16GB card at the same price
  • 22.9cm long, the shortest 16GB card in this round-up
  • OC mode 2632MHz, default 2602MHz
  • 4.7 from 345 ratings, the joint-highest score here
  • 2.5-slot design with dual BIOS and 0dB technology

Cons

  • £50 more than the MSI for the same 16GB and the same 2602MHz clock
  • Compatible Devices field lists Laptop as well as Desktop
  • Maximum Display Resolution says 7680 pixels while Display Maximum Resolution says 3840x2160
  • No memory bandwidth figure given, unlike the PNY listing

“Brought this to replace my 6 year old Nvidia 1660 ti, easy install, drivers updated without any issues. Lovely performance boost in games with upto double in some games.The card looks well built with plenty of cooling (dual fans) and the fans are also quiet and as this is produced by ASUS who have their own dedicated UK repair site.Word of warning there are two version of the 5060ti one with 8Gbs and one with 16Gbs - certainly wouldn't advise anyone to purchase the 8gbs versions esp if you'll be looking to sell it on in a few years. The 16Gb version is about £50 more which for an additional 8Gb DDR7 def gives more value for money and longevity.”

“I refunded this product due to a fault but also rebought it and can honestly say im over the moon with it.Initially i was running it stock but i undervolted it to 2700mhz and the cards performance didnt change at all but my tempretures dropped by 5-10c.Graphically the Card doesnt struggle at all as long as you willing to use frame generation which if your buying into the 50 series your pretty much signing up for. Easily pushing over 300 fps on ultra setting in Space Marine 2, even runs Cyberpunk on uttra with pathtracing at 100+.Cant fault the ASUS DUAL 5060ti so far value for money and what it gets you access to cant be denied. If your looking for a Good Looking, Quite Card with Great Value for your money id look no further.”

At £629.99 this GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB card sits £50 above the MSI, and it quotes 767 AI TOPS. Crucially, the other ASUS 16GB card in this list — the one further down at the same £629.99 — quotes 759. Same GPU, same brand, same price, two different numbers.

It is the shortest 16GB card here at 22.9cm, which makes it an easy fit in a small chassis. ASUS lists a 2602MHz default clock with a 2632MHz OC mode, a 2.5-slot body, Axial-tech fans with a smaller hub for longer blades, dual BIOS and 0dB mode. The spec sheet lists two fans.

Even so, the Compatible Devices field says "Desktop, Laptop", which no desktop graphics card is. It is also £50 more than first place for the same 16GB of GDDR7. If the 226mm MSI already fits your case, you are paying for the badge and the shorter board.

ASUS Prime GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB OC Edition

ASUS Prime RTX 5060 Ti 16GB OC Edition triple-fan card
£679.99 4.6 202 reviews

Mid-pack at £679.99, with a 2617MHz clock and three fans — £100 more than the cheapest 16GB card here for the same memory.

Pros

  • 2617MHz stated GPU clock
  • Three Axial-tech fans with dual ball bearings
  • Dual BIOS switch with Quiet and Performance profiles
  • 2.5-slot body with a reinforced metal backplate
  • 0dB technology for silent light gaming

Cons

  • 30.4cm long — 7.5cm longer than the ASUS Dual 16GB
  • Two conflicting maximum resolution figures, 7680 x 4320 and 3840x2160
  • £100 more than the cheapest 16GB card here for the same memory
  • Box contents list a Velcro strap and thank-you card, not a support bracket

Third place goes to the only card here with a stated 2617MHz clock and three fans, at £679.99. It sits mid-way in the 45MHz band the 16GB cards occupy, and it costs £100 more than the cheapest RTX 5060 Ti here for the same 16GB of GDDR7. ASUS lists it as an NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti with DLSS 4.

At 30.4cm it is a long board for a 2.5-slot card, so measure your case first. ASUS fits dual ball fan bearings and claims they last up to twice as long as standard sleeve bearings. There is a Dual BIOS switch for Quiet and Performance profiles, a metal backplate, and 0dB mode. In theory the 0dB setting keeps light gaming silent.

The catch is the display spec. One field says 7680 x 4320 and another says 3840x2160 for the same card. If you are buying with 8K output in mind, confirm which figure is right before you pay £679.99.

PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB Overclocked Dual Fan

PNY RTX 5060 Ti 16GB dual-fan overclocked graphics card
£674.47 4.6 227 reviews

The only RTX 5060 Ti dual fan card here that quotes memory bandwidth — 448GB/sec — and 4608 CUDA cores, at £674.47.

Pros

  • 448GB/sec memory bandwidth — the only listing here that states it
  • 4608 CUDA cores quoted
  • 16GB GDDR7 on a 128-bit bus
  • £674.47, which is less than the ASUS Prime at £679.99
  • VelocityX software for clock and fan control

Cons

  • Graphics Coprocessor field names an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
  • 2692MHz boost clock appears only in the bullet text, not the spec table
  • Spec table lists the same 2407MHz for GPU clock and memory clock
  • No dimensions or slot width given in the spec sheet

“Upgraded from a rtx 5050 8gb, you really need more than 8gb so I bought this as it's 16gb and i can now play everything on ultra at 1440p with around 100fps which is fine for me as I play on an lg oled so I'm limited to 120fps”

“I picked up this PNY RTX 5060 Ti (16GB) specifically to pair with an external GPU enclosure, and it's been a solid upgrade. The card fits well in a dual-slot form factor, which is a good match for eGPU cases that tend to have tighter space constraints.For light gaming, performance has been smooth and reliable. The 16GB of VRAM gives plenty of headroom, so I haven't run into any bottlenecks, even running through an external enclosure where you typically lose some bandwidth compared to a native PCIe slot. DLSS 4 support is a nice bonus for squeezing out extra frames without a noticeable hit to visual quality.Overall, it's been dependable and does exactly what I need for a lighter gaming workload on an eGPU setup. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a capable, not too power hungry card for external GPU use.”

Check Price on Amazon More about the PNY GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB Overclocked Dual Fan

This NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti graphics card is the only one in the list to quote memory bandwidth (448GB/sec) and CUDA core count (4608) alongside its 16GB of GDDR7. At £674.47 it undercuts the ASUS Prime by £5.52 and the MSI VENTUS 3X by £159.50.

PNY's bullet text gives a 2407MHz core clock and a 2692MHz boost clock. The spec table lists 2407MHz for the GPU clock and 2407MHz for the memory clock, so the boost figure appears only in the marketing copy. In practice you get a two-fan card with PCIe 5.0, x8, DisplayPort and HDMI outputs, and PNY's VelocityX software for fan and clock control.

However, the Graphics Coprocessor field on this listing reads "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti". That is a two-generation-old GPU name on a £674.47 product page. Either the field is filler or the listing was copied; either way, check what you are buying.

This is the second ASUS 16GB card at £629.99, and the lower rated of the two at 4.4 from 109 ratings. Its listed GPU clock is 2572MHz — the lowest of any 16GB card in this round-up and 75MHz below the £1,027.04 Gigabyte at the top of the price range.

ASUS lists a 2.5-slot design with Axial-tech fans, 0dB mode and dual BIOS, at 30.2 x 13.3cm. At the same time it quotes 759 AI TOPS, against 767 on the other ASUS 16GB card. Same GPU, same brand, same price, two figures.

The listing itself is muddled. The model name field reads "TUF GAMING RTX5060 Ti OC" and the box contents list a TUF certificate, a TUF graphics card holder and a TUF Velcro strap — on a page titled ASUS Dual. If you need to know which cooler and accessories you will actually receive, ask before ordering.

MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 3X OC

£833.97 4.5 91 reviews

The first card to break £800 at £833.97, with a 2602MHz clock identical to the £579.99 MSI in first place.

Pros

  • Three TORX Fan 5.0 fans with ZERO FROZR stop mode
  • 2.5-slot, 304mm card with a flow-through metal backplate
  • 8-pin, 180W, 600W PSU — the same power spec as the £579.99 MSI
  • 4.5 from 91 ratings
  • 16GB GDDR7 at 28Gbps on a 128-bit bus

Cons

  • £833.97, which is £253.98 more than the MSI SHADOW with the same clock
  • 304mm long — too long for many mid-tower front mounts with a radiator
  • Graphics Description field says only "Dedicated"
  • Same 600W PSU requirement as the cheaper card, so no efficiency gain

“Recently bought the RTX 5060ti, as I wanted something reasonable in performance and plenty of VRAM. First off, I am aware that the RTX 5070 exists, and on paper is a better performer. However, the glaring and obvious issue is the 12GB of VRAM. Which for me isn't, enough and yes in the now is enough but what about next year or the year after? I'm hitting between 120-150fps in my games. (Not esports). With DLSS and sometimes with Frame Gen even higher! (People complain about Frame Gen, but it's a free feature may as well use it)The 5060ti hits the mark and some, and the MSI Ventus x3 is a fantastic version of the card.Low noise, crisp and straight forward design. Barely know it's there. They say the Ventus models are noisy, but this is one of the best cards I have used. In any case, this is a good GPU, DLSS is fantastic and simple to use. I highly recommend this card and they are even throwing in 007 as well! Amazing card and value!”

This is the first card in the list to break £800, at £833.97, and it does so with a 2602MHz clock — exactly the figure the £579.99 MSI in first place quotes. The gain over that card is cooling capacity and board size, not clock speed.

It is 304mm long, weighs 860g, and MSI asks for the same 600W PSU and single 8-pin connector as the SHADOW, with the same 180W draw. Three TORX Fan 5.0 fans, ZERO FROZR stop mode, a metal backplate, a 2.5-slot body and outputs of three DisplayPort 2.1b plus one HDMI 2.1b.

By contrast with the cheaper MSI, the gap is £253.98. As a result, most of what you would be paying for is a bigger cooler. The Graphics Description field reads only "Dedicated" — no memory type, no clock — so the page gives you little to verify. If your case takes a 226mm dual-fan card, buy that one instead.

The most expensive card here at £1,027.04 and the highest clocked at 2647MHz — 45MHz above first place for £447.05 more.

Pros

  • 2647MHz — the highest stated clock in this round-up
  • Triple-fan WINDFORCE cooler with RGB lighting
  • Dual BIOS with Performance and Silent profiles
  • 4.7 from 123 ratings, the joint-highest score here
  • PCI-Express x16 stated, where every other card lists x8

Cons

  • £1,027.04 — £447.05 more than the cheapest 16GB card for a 45MHz gain
  • Video Output Interface field lists DisplayPort only, though the title adds HDMI
  • Memory clock written as 28000MHz, the same 28Gbps figure as every other 16GB card
  • Box contents list only a manual

“I'm really happy with the performance of this Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti. The 16GB VRAM and triple fans mean it runs fast, cool, and quiet right out of the box. I don't know enough about components to really emphasise the quality, but I can play most of the latest AAA titles without a problem. It handles Adobe Creative files well too. On the price point, I picked this up for £480, which at the moment is a bargain given the skyrocketing prices of RAM and GPUs. My only real note for other builders is regarding its size. It is a very long card, so please double-check the dimensions of your motherboard and PC chassis to ensure it fits before you order it. Once it's securely in a spacious enough box, it delivers flawless, stable performance on all fronts.”

This is the priciest RTX 5060 Ti graphics card in the round-up at £1,027.04, and the highest clocked at 2647MHz. That is 45MHz above the £579.99 MSI. In percentage terms you pay 77% more for roughly 1.7% more clock.

Gigabyte lists a WINDFORCE triple-fan cooler, RGB lighting and dual BIOS with Performance and Silent modes. The spec table gives 16GB (written as 16384 MB), a 128-bit interface, a 28000MHz memory clock and a PCI-Express x16 interface — the only card here that claims x16 rather than x8. Worth noting that 28000MHz is the same 28Gbps memory every 16GB card in this list uses.

The catch is the RTX 5060 Ti price spread. For £447.05 more than the cheapest 16GB card here you get a 45MHz advantage, RGB and a larger cooler. If you buy for frame rates alone, that does not stack up. The 4.7 rating from 123 ratings suggests buyers are happy — they are paying for cosmetics.

  • Item dimensions field says 10L x 15W centimetres, not a 300mm card
  • 16-pin power connector where the cheaper 16GB cards use a single 8-pin
  • No PCIe generation or memory bandwidth figure given

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

“The MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8GB Gaming Trio is an impressive graphics card overall, particularly if you're looking for a combination of performance, cooling and build quality. The triple-fan design gives the card a substantial appearance, and the metal backplate and solid construction make it feel like a premium product rather than a budget-oriented GPU. At around 300mm long, it is fairly large, so it's worth checking case clearance beforehand.One of the biggest strengths is the cooling performance. The large heatsink and three Stormforce fans keep temperatures under control without needing to run the fans aggressively. During normal gaming, the card remains relatively quiet, with the fans becoming noticeable mainly under heavier loads. MSI's Zero Frozr feature also stops the fans completely when the GPU is cool, making it effectively silent during light desktop use.In terms of value, the Gaming Trio is more expensive than some basic 5060 Ti models, so you are paying extra for the superior cooler, aesthetics and overall construction rather than a huge increase in raw performance. However, the premium feels justified if you value low temperatures and quieter operation. The 8GB GDDR7 configuration provides good performance for 1080p and capable 1440p gaming, although the 8GB VRAM could become a limitation in some demanding games over time.Overall, I would consider the Gaming Trio a very well-built and reliable-feeling 5060 Ti. It offers excellent cooling, low noise and a premium design, making it a particularly good choice for someone who prioritises build quality and long-term usability.”

“Great value for this card. The 5060 Ti is not as desirable these days as everyone seems to be chasing the larger RAM models to run local AI, but this card has crushed every game my lad has thrown at it in 1080p and 1440p resolutions, and he is absolutely delighted.The card has shiny dragon artwork, a neon RGB pulsing shield on the opposite end to the output ports, and some pulsing LEDs mid way along the top (possibly the same source providing light to the shield on the end of the card).Three big fans keep the temperature stable, and it's surprisingly not noisy. This card has a premium feel to it, and it worked straight out of the box when slipped into the system.”

Check Price on Amazon More about the MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8G GAMING TRIO OC

At £428.99 this is the cheapest RTX 5060 Ti graphics card in the round-up, and it carries the joint-highest clock of any card here — 2647MHz, matched only by the £1,027.04 Gigabyte. The trade is memory: 8GB of GDDR7 on the same 128-bit bus rather than 16GB.

It is a 2.5-slot, 300mm card weighing 839g, with three STORMFORCE fans, TRI FROZR 4 cooling, RGB lighting and a 16-pin connector drawing 180W from a 600W PSU. In practice this is the one to consider if you play at 1080p and set textures accordingly — the 28Gbps memory speed is the same as the 16GB cards.

That said, the listing's own dimensions field says 10L x 15W centimetres, which does not describe a 300mm card. Meanwhile the 8GB is the real limit: at 1440p with high textures it fills quickly. Do not buy this if you plan to keep it four years at 1440p.

This RTX 5060 Ti 8GB card is the cheapest in the list at £419.99 — £9.00 less than the MSI 8GB and £160 less than the cheapest 16GB option. It quotes 759 AI TOPS and a 2602MHz default clock with a 2632MHz OC mode, the same figures the ASUS 16GB cards use.

ASUS lists a 2.5-slot body, two Axial-tech fans, 0dB mode and dual BIOS, with PCIe 5.0, HDMI 2.1b and DisplayPort 2.1b. The maximum display resolution field says 7680x4320, which is more than 8GB of graphics memory will feed in modern games.

Worth noting the listing error: the Graphics Card Ram field on this 8GB card reads "16 GB". The model name is DUAL-RTX5060TI-O8G, so the memory is 8GB. Order from this page expecting 16GB because of that one field and you will be disappointed.

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

Verified purchase

“The product itself seems fine, but it looks like the box was definitely opened. The box opening was little torn off, the packaging wasn't packed like it's from a factory. I think this was a returned product.”

“Cet eGPU va au delà de mes attentes. Mon ordinateur dispose de 2 prises Thunderbolt 5, dinc parfaitement compatible.Je fais de l'IA (LLM plus précisemment), et bien il a triplé les performances sur des modèles MoE (Mixture of Experts).Mieux, grâce a lui, je peux enfin charger des modèles MoE à 80B voir 122B (Qwen), chose impossible avec un seul GPU.Je precise que je n'ai qu'u ordinateur portable, sinon j'aurais achete une carte interne.Cet équipement est un Must Have si on travail.avec des LLM. Rapport qualite prix imbattable.”

Check Price on Amazon More about the Gigabyte AORUS RTX 5060 Ti AI BOX 16GB

This is not a card you fit into a desktop. It is a Thunderbolt 5 box with the RTX 5060 Ti 16GB inside it, priced at £873.99 from 31 ratings. The GPU clock is listed at 2572MHz, the same figure as the ASUS Dual 16GB that costs £244 less.

Gigabyte lists Thunderbolt 5 plug and play, Thunderbolt 5 daisy-chaining, three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports for peripherals, the WINDFORCE cooling system and a 955g body. In theory it turns a laptop into a machine that can run DLSS 4 titles over one cable. Which means you are paying for the enclosure as much as the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti inside it.

Crucially, the histogram tells the story: 4.2 from 31 ratings, with 11 of those at one star. That is the weakest spread in this round-up, on the second most expensive product in it. If you own a desktop with a free PCIe slot, do not buy this.

Final Verdict

For most builds, the £579.99 MSI SHADOW 2X OC PLUS is the RTX 5060 Ti graphics card to buy: 16GB of GDDR7, a 2602MHz clock, and £447.05 less than the most expensive 16GB card here. If your case is tight, the ASUS DUAL OC 16GB at £629.99 is the shortest 16GB board at 22.9cm. If you game at 1080p and the budget decides, the 8GB ASUS Dual at £419.99 is the cheapest RTX 5060 Ti graphics card in this list — but read the listing, because its Graphics Card Ram field claims 16 GB. The £1,027.04 Gigabyte and the £873.99 AORUS AI BOX only make sense if you want RGB finishes or Thunderbolt 5, not frames.

Best DAB Radios 2026: 9 Ranked, and the 30W Claim That Doesn't Add Up

A radio that claims 30 W of output and a battery that lasts over 10 hours is claiming something the arithmetic will not support. The AZATOM Spitalfields 2 lists 30 W maximum speaker output; the same listing says its 2,000 mAh battery runs for over 10 hours. A 2,000 mAh cell at the 3.7 V that appears in these spec sheets holds about 7.4 Wh, so ten hours averages 0.74 W. At a genuine 30 W, that pack would be empty in about 15 minutes. That is the problem with shopping for the best DAB radios on wattage alone: the Mycket, at £29.99, declares 5 W against a 2,200 mAh battery and 12 hours — around 0.68 W average, the same order of magnitude as the AZATOM. The '30 W' and the '5 W' are not the same measurement, which is why a £29.99 radio looks six times more powerful than a £44.95 one. We ranked nine of the best DAB radios on Amazon on preset count, power source, battery type, display and how well each listing's own numbers agree with each other. Every one of the dab radios reviewed here was checked against its spec table, not against its marketing headline. Price runs from £21.59 to £99.00, and the most expensive model is not the one with the biggest wattage claim.

Best CPU Air Cooler 2026: 10 Ranked, One Sold Twice at Two Prices

The same cooler appears twice in this best cpu air cooler shortlist, at two different prices. The Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE is listed at £29.99 with 3,133 ratings and again at £35.90 with 307 ratings — £5.91 more for a name that is identical. The two listings cannot both be right about the hardware: one records 12 Volts and 265 watts, the other 5 Volts and 3 watts. Those watts are not power draw. The cooler's own fan is a 4-pin, 12-volt part moving 66.17 CFM, and the 265 W sitting in the Wattage field is the thermal capacity quoted in the bullet text, not the current the product consumes. The pattern repeats. be quiet! sells two Pure Rock Pro 3 coolers at the same £41.98, yet one lists 3.6 watts and the other 250 watts. Cooler Master's MasterLiquid describes a 394 mm radiator in its copy while its own dimensions field says 15.7 cm long. We ranked ten of the best cpu air cooler options on Amazon on three criteria: the published price and rating counts, the socket support each listing actually states, and whether a product's own specifications agree with each other.

Best Case Fans 2026: 9 Ranked by What a Fan Actually Costs

Almost nothing in this list of the best case fans is sold as a single fan, so the price on the page is not the price of a fan. The £21.49 ARCTIC five-pack works out at £4.30 a fan. The £18.66 ARCTIC pack works out at £3.73. Meanwhile the £18.99 be quiet! Light Wings buys you one fan. The same be quiet! Light Wings 120mm PWM high-speed fan is listed twice — £18.99 on its own and £44.99 as a three-pack with an ARGB hub. That is £15.00 a fan, and £11.98 less than three singles. The noise numbers cannot be lined up either: ARCTIC quotes 0.3 sones on both its five-packs, Noctua quotes 25.1 dB(A), be quiet! 31 dB and Corsair 36 dB. As a result the spec tables are not all in the same unit, and Noctua is the only brand here quoting airflow in cubic metres rather than CFM. We ranked nine of the best case fans on Amazon on three measures a buyer can check: the price divided by the number of fans in the box, the specification each manufacturer actually publishes, and the review count behind the star rating. There is no test bench here. Where a listing contradicts itself — and several do — we say so, with both numbers.
