When the RTX 5060 Ti first showed up, the performance was fine but the price wasn’t. You were paying close to upper midrange money for what was basically a very capable 1080p and entry-level 1440p GPU. At its original $469.99 list price, it was hard to recommend over slightly more expensive cards that delivered bigger gains.
Now that this SFF-ready RTX 5060 Ti is down to $332.99 (a 29% cut), the value finally lines up with what the card actually does. At this price, it becomes a genuinely interesting pick for a budget or midrange gaming pc, especially if you’re building in a smaller case.
This is an SFF-oriented RTX 5060 Ti with 8GB of GDDR7, aimed squarely at modern 1080p high/ultra gaming and 1440p with some sensible settings tweaks. You still get the usual RTX perks like ray tracing and DLSS, which help keep frame rates healthy in newer titles without dropping everything to low.
The cooler is designed for small form factor builds. It uses a 2.5-slot design with efficient axial fans, so it fits into tighter cases while keeping thermals and noise under control. The more compact length makes it much easier to squeeze into SFF cases that can’t handle giant triple-slot monsters.
On the connectivity side, you get modern outputs like HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.1, so you’re ready for high-refresh 1440p or even 4K displays. A dual-bios switch lets you pick between a quieter fan curve or more aggressive cooling, depending on how you like your system tuned.
At full MSRP, this card sat in a weird spot. For not much more money, you could jump to faster GPUs, and the 8GB of VRAM didn’t help the value argument at that price point. At $332.99, the trade-offs make a lot more sense.
For a budget or midrange gaming pc, that number puts you in a comfortable zone where you get:
If you’re building compact, the SFF-ready design is a big plus. Many more powerful cards either won’t fit or will turn a small case into a space heater. This strikes a practical balance that fits realistic budgets and realistic cases, especially in an ASUS implementation that’s focused on small form factor compatibility.
In short, you’re no longer paying a premium for what the card can do. You’re paying a fair midrange price for a midrange performer that still brings modern RTX features and efficiency to the table.
The RTX 5060 Ti didn’t feel worth it when it hovered around its original $469.99 MSRP. At $332.99 for this SFF-ready 8 GB model, it finally lands where it should’ve been from day one. If you’re putting together a budget gaming pc or a compact rig and want a GPU that handles 1080p easily and 1440p with the right tweaks, this deal turns a once-overpriced card into a very reasonable choice.
Nearly a month after announcing the GPT-6.1 Sol model, OpenAI unveiled GPT-6.1 Terra today. The latest addition to the family focuses on computer use, visual reasoning, coding, and professional work, while costing 50% less through the API than GPT-5.6 Terra.
OpenAI says Terra can handle everything from filling out browser forms and working inside spreadsheets to interpreting technical drawings and editing videos. The company says it can also complete computer-based tasks more than three times faster than GPT-6 Astra and GPT-6.1 Sol.
ASUS has started selling its UGen Intel Arc Pro B70 graphics card in Europe, bringing its take on Intel’s workstation GPU to customers with a hefty €1,799 recommended price. The card is available in Germany and Austria, while ASUS lists it at CHF 1,799 in Switzerland.
Intel first introduced the Arc Pro B70 in March 2026, with its own branded model starting at $949. ASUS’s version arrives several months later with the same core GPU architecture but a different cooling design and a higher power rating. The price also places it well above Intel’s original starting point, although the two prices are not directly comparable because ASUS’s European figure includes VAT.
Anthropic has officially filed to go public, and buried inside its S-1 is a blunt warning about the technology at the center of its business. The maker of Claude AI says advanced AI could cause everything from large-scale cyberattacks and geopolitical instability to catastrophic or even existential risks for humanity.
The warnings take up a surprisingly large part of the filing. Axios notes that more than 90 pages, or roughly a third of the prospectus, focus on risk factors. Many of them warn about what could happen as AI systems become more capable and autonomous.
