What reviewers say

Reviewers agree it is the best-value card in its class, beating the RTX 5060 and coming close to the RTX 5060 Ti for less money, while running cool and efficiently, with 16 GB of memory that should age well. The main reservations are that NVIDIA's software features, DLSS especially, remain ahead of FSR, and that street prices were above AMD's list price.
