Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

MSI's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 3X OC sits sixth in this round-up at £833.97. It is a 2.5-slot, triple-fan card with 16GB of GDDR7 on a 128-bit bus, described by MSI as a factory-overclocked version of the plain RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 3X. The GPU clock quoted in the listing is 2602MHz — the bottom of the range this guide covers, since every 16GB card here runs between 2602MHz and 2647MHz. That 45MHz spread sits above a price spread of £579.99 to £1,027.04; this card costs £253.98 more than the cheapest 16GB card on the list.

Two sets of numbers on the page do not agree with each other. The title advertises GDDR7 at 28Gbps, while the specification table quotes a memory clock speed of 2407MHz. And the star breakdown — 82 five-star, 5 four-star, 3 three-star, 5 two-star and 5 one-star — adds up to 100 ratings, against the 91 the listing states. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing itself, not from any testing we carried out.

Questions people ask

How much is the MSI RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 3X OC?

Is the VENTUS 3X OC faster than the plain VENTUS 3X?

MSI describes it as a factory-overclocked variant of the RTX 5060 Ti 16G VENTUS 3X, and quotes a GPU clock speed of 2602 MHz. The listing gives no clock figure for the non-OC version.

Not quite. The title says GDDR7 28 Gbps, while the specification table lists a memory clock speed of 2407 MHz.

What power supply does it need?

MSI's bullet recommends a 600W or higher PSU. The card draws 180W through a single 8-pin connector.

How many reviews does it have?
