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

The MSI RTX 5060 Ti 16G SHADOW 2X OC PLUS is built for 1080p high-refresh and 1440p mainstream gamers, everyday PC builders, home office users, and content creators seeking next-generation Blackwell GPU performance with generous 16GB GDDR7 VRAM, DLSS 4.5 AI upscaling and Multi Frame Generation, full ray tracing hardware acceleration, and a compact, power-efficient 180W card in a space-saving 226mm form factor. It is ideal for high-refresh 1080p and smooth 1440p gaming across AAA titles, esports, and daily content creation on mid-range and value gaming builds.

The RTX 5060 Ti SHADOW 2X OC PLUS is powered by NVIDIA's Blackwell architecture with 4608 CUDA Cores, fourth-gen RT Cores for hardware ray tracing, and fifth-gen Tensor Cores with FP4 precision enabling DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Generation and AI neural rendering for dramatically higher effective frame rates. The generous 16GB GDDR7 at 28 Gbps provides substantially more VRAM than previous mid-range cards, ensuring smooth performance in VRAM-demanding titles and future-proofing the card for demanding texture loads at 1080p and 1440p. The dual STORMFORCE fans — each featuring seven claw-textured blades and a circular arc concentration design — provide strong, focused airflow through the heatsink with minimal noise, while Zero Frozr stops both fans completely at low temperatures for silent idle operation. Heat pipes efficiently draw thermal energy away from the GPU and distribute it across the heatsink for effective sustained cooling within the 180W TDP. The reinforcing metal backplate with thermal pads and airflow exhaust vents enhances structural rigidity and rear-side thermal dissipation. DrMOS power stages deliver efficient, precise power delivery with additional PCB fuse protection for reliability. At just 226×126×41mm and 578g, the SHADOW 2X OC PLUS is exceptionally compact for a Blackwell 16GB card — suitable for a wide range of mid-tower and SFF cases. The clean, performance-first SHADOW aesthetic with no RGB lighting integrates seamlessly into any build. MSI Center provides Extreme Performance mode at 2617 MHz alongside AI Tuning and real-time monitoring.
