Why the RTX 5060 is a Big Deal for Ray Tracing

For years, ray tracing—the holy grail of realistic in-game lighting—was reserved for the most expensive graphics cards. The RTX 20 and 30 series made it possible, but the 40 series made it truly playable for the masses, thanks to DLSS 3. The upcoming 50-series, and specifically the RTX 5060, is expected to continue this trend, offering incredible performance-per-rand.

We anticipate that a solid AIB (add-in board) partner model, like a potential Palit Infinity 2 OC, will be the sweet spot. With a factory overclock and enhanced cooling, it'll have the extra grunt needed to make demanding ray tracing games on the RTX 5060 run smoothly at 1080p and even 1440p. While we wait for official specs, browsing the current lineup of GeForce Graphics Cards gives us a good idea of the features and value we can expect.

Top Ray Tracing Games to Prep for Your RTX 5060

When your new GPU arrives, you'll want a library of stunning titles ready to go. These are the games that will likely push a future RTX 5060 to its beautiful, light-bouncing limits.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

Still the undisputed champion of graphics technology. With its full-blown Path Tracing (Overdrive Mode), Night City transforms into a breathtaking neon-drenched metropolis. The performance demands are huge, but with the expected advancements in DLSS and frame generation on the 50-series, getting a smooth 60+ FPS experience on a 60-class card will finally be within reach. This is the ultimate benchmark for ray tracing games on an RTX 5060.

Alan Wake 2

If Cyberpunk is the neon-soaked city, Alan Wake 2 is its dark, terrifying forest counterpart. Remedy Entertainment used path tracing to create some of the most atmospheric and unnerving environments in gaming history. Light (or the lack of it) is a core gameplay mechanic, and seeing it rendered with this level of realism is something else. It's a must-play that will shine on next-gen hardware. The market for powerful graphics cards is always evolving to meet the demands of titles like this.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (Next-Gen Update)

An old favourite given a stunning new coat of paint. The next-gen update added ray-traced global illumination and ambient occlusion, making the world of the Continent feel more grounded and realistic than ever. It's less demanding than the other two, making it a perfect example of a game that will run flawlessly at high resolutions and settings, showcasing the raw power of a card like the Palit Infinity 2 OC. While NVIDIA leads in ray tracing, the competition from Radeon Graphics Cards continues to heat up, pushing innovation across the board.

What to Expect from Partner Cards ✨

While NVIDIA designs the base chip, partners like Palit, Gigabyte, and MSI are the ones who bring it to life for consumers. A model like the "Palit Infinity 2 OC" represents the custom-tuned cards that offer better cooling, higher clock speeds, and unique aesthetics compared to a standard Founders Edition.

When the time comes, choosing a trusted brand is key. Companies like MSI, for example, have a long history of building reliable, high-performance GPUs that South African gamers trust. We expect the RTX 5060 partner cards to offer a fantastic blend of price and performance, making them the default choice for smart builders.
