MSI Readies Compact GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB INSPIRE ITX GPU

MSI has prepared a new ITX-sized GeForce RTX 5060 8G INSPIRE ITX GPU. This compact powerhouse, coming in a GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB flavor, boasts a core clock that reaches an impressive 2,512 MHz (boost clock of 2,497 MHz), driving 3,840 CUDA cores alongside a substantial 8 GB of GDDR7 memory running at a lightning-fast 28 Gbps on a 128-bit bus. Despite its 145 × 120 × 45 mm dimensions and 581 g weight, the card remains cool thanks to the STORMFORCE FAN design, featuring seven claw-textured blades in a circular arc to maximize airflow quietly, along with a copper-core sunflower radiator heatsink that combines a high-conductivity copper core with a sunflower-style aluminium radiator. A reinforcing backplate with an airflow vent lets exhaust air escape efficiently. Power consumption is 145 W via a single 8-pin connector, and MSI recommends a 550 W PSU. Outputs include three DisplayPort v2.1b ports and one HDMI 2.1b port (up to 4K 480 Hz or 8K 120 Hz with DSC). Users can select either GAMING or SILENT mode in the MSI Center, and overclocking is available through MSI Afterburner.
