MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB VANGUARD SOC OC (912V532‑026 / 912V535‑026)
MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB VANGUARD SOC OC (912V532/535‑026) is an overclocked powerhouse built on NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture with 4,608 CUDA cores and boost clocks between ~2,692–2,707 MHz via MSI Center, paired with 16 GB of GDDR7 VRAM at 28 Gbps (~448 GB/s). Its robust TRI FROZR thermal design—featuring a vapor chamber, StormForce triple-fan cooling, and reinforced backplate—maintains low temperatures and quiet operation even under load, supported by PCIe 5.0 x8 and a single 16‑pin power connector drawing around 180 W (MSI recommends a 600 W PSU). The Vanguard SOC excels at 1440p and entry-level 4K gaming with ray tracing and DLSS 4, and includes dual BIOS and MSI Center support for performance/acoustic tuning.
Enthusiasts have confirmed impressive overclocking headroom—+400 MHz core and +1,200–1,500 MHz memory boosts are stable, frequently reaching ~3.1 GHz core with only ~63 °C temperatures—delivering up to ~10% extra performance. With cutting-edge features like AV1 encoding/decoding, Reflex 2, and high-resolution display support (3×DP 2.1b + HDMI 2.1b), it’s well-suited for gamers and creators seeking a next-gen, high-performance card—provided your case and PSU can accommodate its ~337 × 140 × 61 mm size and 2 kg weight.
