Can't complain about 8 GB VRAM when you are paying less than $100 for a powerful budget GPU.
Redditor Snags MSI RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X for Just $80 From the Local Walmart Store
It was unbelievable for u/ForkDryer to see the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti listed for barely $80 at his local Walmart. He says, "It seemed too good to be true", but when he reached the checkout counter, the price sticker turned out to be accurate. At a time when the GPU prices are 20-30% higher than usual, getting a GPU for a fraction of the MSRP feels almost unreal.
We have seen some users getting GPUs for discounted prices, but usually, they are close to the MSRP. In some cases, users were able to snag entire pre-built PCs at two to three times lower than their original price, but this RTX 5060 Ti deal is insanely good, as the user paid nearly five times less than its launch price. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB edition launched at $379, but currently sits at around $400.
This user got the MSI Ventus 2X edition for $80, and the price sticker clearly shows that the huge discount was part of a Clearance sale. RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB is an excellent card for 1080p gaming and does pretty well even at 1440p despite having just 8 GB of memory. Of course, some games will have problems running smoothly with 8 GB VRAM, but you can't complain when you are getting a new gen card at nearly one-fifth of its retail price.
Once again, we recommend that our readers check out their local PC hardware stores for such deals. We know it's rare to find hardware at unbelievably low prices, but even if you can find one for less than or close to the MSRP, it's still a win. If you’re shopping for multiple components, it’s worth checking for combo deals, as bundles often offer significantly better discounts.
