Overview
- Mindfactory reports 1,675 units sold of the 16GB RTX 5060 Ti versus 105 units of the 8GB version, reflecting a 16× sales gap.
- Both the 8GB and 16GB models remained fully stocked during the sales period, eliminating availability as a factor in buyer choice.
- Consumers are paying roughly €70 more for the extra VRAM to accommodate modern features like ray tracing and to boost future resale value.
- Competing data from TechEpiphany shows AMD’s RX 9070 XT and RX 9060 XT leading overall weekly sales, with Nvidia’s mid-range cards in third place.
- As a single-retailer snapshot, Mindfactory’s figures may not capture broader global trends but underscore growing concerns over 8GB GPU longevity.
