Jensen Huang opened with a bold claim: intelligence is the new industrial output. The old world of general-purpose CPUs is giving way to accelerated computing powered by GPUs. Data centers no longer just store data. They actively produce intelligence. Traditional CPUs have reached their limits. According to Huang, they cannot keep up with AI's growing demands. NVIDIA's accelerated platforms, such as the upcoming GeForce RTX 5060 and next-gen DGX systems, unlock new performance levels. Moreover, Huang introduced NVIDIA's east-west networking architecture. This innovation connects thousands of AI processors across large clusters. Thanks to Mellanox technology, NVIDIA now leads in networking critical for AI factories. What sets Huang's keynote apart is his vision beyond technology. He described how AI tools are becoming accessible to creators, researchers, and industries worldwide. From healthcare breakthroughs to digital art and autonomous machines, AI is transforming sectors at scale. Huang emphasized democratizing intelligence. Anyone, anywhere, will soon be able to build, train, and deploy AI models. This accessibility marks a major milestone in AI development. He also highlighted NVIDIA's CUDA-X platform. Huang showcased a vast ecosystem of partners using CUDA-X for applications ranging from AI-driven 6G to quantum supercomputing. He explained how a growing install base fuels more innovation and benefits. Looking ahead, Huang outlined AI's future phases: agentic AI that thinks and acts, physical AI that understands the real world, and general robotics. These advancements drive an increasing demand for computing power. To meet this demand, Huang shared NVIDIA's latest innovations, including Grace Blackwell NVL72 systems and advanced networking tech. He mentioned large AI factory investments by CoreWeave, Oracle, Microsoft, xAI, and others worldwide. 'Factories are built because you know the answer,' Huang said. 'The more you buy, the more you make.' Taiwan plays a central role in this revolution. Huang highlighted NVIDIA's partnership with Foxconn Hon Hai and the Taiwan government. Together, they are building an AI factory supercomputer powered by NVIDIA's Blackwell infrastructure. This system will support Taiwan's researchers, startups, and industries such as TSMC. 'Having world-class AI infrastructure in Taiwan is crucial,' Huang added. He also announced NVLink Fusion, a new architecture allowing hyperscalers to build semi-custom compute solutions. This technology removes traditional bottlenecks and enables scalable, optimized AI systems. Finally, Huang introduced NVIDIA Constellation, a new Taiwan office. A dramatic video showed NVIDIA's headquarters launching into space and landing in Taiwan, symbolizing growth and commitment. In closing, Huang thanked NVIDIA's partners and Taiwan's tech community. He called the AI opportunity 'extraordinary' and 'once in a lifetime.' 'We are creating a new industry supporting AI factories, agents, and robotics — all on one architecture,' he said. At COMPUTEX 2025, Jensen Huang proved the AI future is here. It's fast, intelligent, and transforming the world — one AI factory at a time.

RTX 5060: Nvidia slammed online for releasing card with just 8GB VRAM, no reviews
Nvidia has officially launched the GeForce RTX 5060, the latest addition to its RTX 50-series graphics cards, priced at $299. The release, however, has drawn scrutiny due to both its technical specifications and the quiet manner in which the company is handling the rollout. The RTX 5060 features 8GB of GDDR7 video memory and is reported to deliver around a 20% performance improvement over its predecessor, the RTX 4060, in conventional gaming scenarios. GeForce RTX 5060 GPUs are out now from our add-in-card partners, powering your favorite games at 100+ frames. To celebrate we will spotlight partner cards and games over the coming days giving you multiple chances to WIN... Comment #GeForceRTX5060 for a chance to WIN the… — NVIDIA GeForce (@NVIDIAGeForce) May 19, 2025 In titles that support DLSS 4, the card is expected to perform significantly better, thanks to the enhanced AI frame-generation capabilities of the RTX 50-series. Despite these improvements, Nvidia's choice to limit the memory capacity to 8GB has raised eyebrows. Industry analysts and reviewers note that in 2025, such a VRAM allocation may be inadequate for many modern gaming titles, potentially resulting in performance issues such as stuttering, crashes, and reduced texture quality. The concerns are not purely theoretical. In earlier testing of the similarly specced RTX 5060 Ti 8GB model, reviewers found that the card struggled in comparison to competitors with higher memory capacity, such as Intel's Arc B580, which offers 12GB of VRAM and outperformed Nvidia's card in various benchmarks. What has further fuelled scepticism is Nvidia's decision not to provide early access drivers or review units of the RTX 5060 to the press ahead of launch. This means no independent performance reviews were available at the time the product hit store shelves. This move is highly unusual for a major GPU release and coincides with the opening week of Computex, potentially limiting coverage as many hardware reviewers are attending the industry event in Taipei. Many users on X have speculated whether this means Nvidia was 'burying' RTX 5060. Nvidia: "We're not hiding the RTX 5060, we're very proud of it and gamers will love it" ...also Nvidia: "We're going to launch the RTX 5060 on May 19th during Computex, and although reviewers have cards right now we won't be releasing the driver until they go on sale" — Hardware Unboxed (@HardwareUnboxed) May 8, 2025 The RTX 5060 will be so bad that even scalpers are not going to bother with it. #NVIDIA — 𝓛𝓪𝓽𝓲𝓷𝓛𝓮𝓰𝓪𝓬𝔂 (@LatinLegacy) May 18, 2025 Why would I down grade from an RTX 4080 super with 16GB of GDDR6X for a card with half the V-Ram? Any more you shouldn't buy anything with less than 16GB, this is after all 2025. — Truck Driver Driscoll (@boomerang_32) May 20, 2025 The RTX 5060's launch date was also only briefly mentioned earlier this month in a company blog post primarily focused on other announcements, with the new GPU receiving just two sentences at the very end of a lengthy update. Nvidia has not publicly addressed the absence of review samples or early drivers. A company spokesperson previously stated that the 8GB memory decision was made to keep the card's cost within a competitive range. While the RTX 5060 may still appeal to esports players or those gaming at 1080p, experts advise potential buyers to wait for independent reviews before making a purchase. 'Lack of transparency around this launch is concerning,' said one industry analyst. 'If Nvidia isn't confident enough to let reviewers test it ahead of release, that should give buyers pause.' Reviews are expected to surface in the coming days as units become available and journalists return from Computex.

Nvidia's Cheapest Graphics Card, the GeForce RTX 5060, Lands May 19
PCMag editors select and review products independently. If you buy through affiliate links, we may earn commissions, which help support our testing. After introducing the RTX 5060 last month, Nvidia has finally revealed its launch date: May 19. Expect sales to begin at 9 a.m. EST, right after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang gives his keynote at the Computex trade show in Taipei. The GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU launches on the same day, according to an Nvidia blog post published on Tuesday. The GeForce RTX 5060 stands out for its $299 starting price, making it the most affordable graphics card in Nvidia's RTX 5000 series. "With GeForce RTX 5060, you can play your favorite games at 100+ FPS," the company says. That said, the product's gaming uplift relies heavily on activating Nvidia's DLSS 4 frame-generation tool. Otherwise, as the company's own benchmarks show, you can expect only a minor upgrade in frame rates. Still, Nvidia sees an opportunity to sell the card to gamers looking to upgrade from the older RTX 2060 and GTX 1660, which the company initially released in 2019 and remain in use among many Steam players. In terms of specs, the RTX 5060 features 3,804 CUDA cores, down from 4,608 cores in the RTX 5060 Ti, which launched last month starting at $429 for the 16GB model and $379 for the 8GB variant. Like the 5060 Ti, the 5060's main limitation appears to be the 8GB of GDDR7 memory, which uses a 128-bit bus. The 128-bit memory interface risks hampering performance on 4K resolutions, as our own review of the RTX 5060 Ti found. So the RTX 5060 is probably best used for 1080p or 1440p gaming. The other issue is that although Nvidia says the product's starting price will be $299, third-party GPU vendors may sell it for more, especially due to Trump's 20% tariff on Chinese assembled products. Stay tuned for our review.

Asus refreshes its gaming laptops with cheaper RTX 5060 options
Asus is updating three of its gaming laptop lines with configurations featuring the new GeForce RTX 5060 GPU, offering features like Multi Frame Generation for higher framerates at slightly lower prices. Nvidia's mid-range graphics are coming to the beefy ROG Strix G16 and G18, ROG Zephyrus G14 hybrid gaming / creativity laptop, and the entry-level TUF Gaming A14, A16, A18, and F16. That's seven new laptops from Asus. And with the 5060 becoming the new entry-level card for each line, the new configs can be around $300 to $400 cheaper than their 5070 versions. Prices on the new 5060 models are as low as $1,499.99 to slightly higher configurations (with faster CPUs, more RAM, and more storage) as pricey as $2,099.99. Image: Asus Image: Asus That low $1,499.99 and high $2,099.99 both lie in the ROG Strix G16. The Strix G16 and G18 look much like stripped-down versions of their pricier Strix Scar counterparts, with 16- and 18-inch 2560 x 1600 240Hz displays and the same wraparound RGB light bars built into their chassis. Though, the more simplified Strix G models have IPS panels instead of Mini LED, and no fancy lid with animated LEDs. The new RTX 5060-equipped G16 and G18 are offered with Intel (Raptor Lake Refresh / Arrow Lake) and AMD (Dragon Range / Fire Range) chip options, 16GB or 32GB of RAM, and up to 2TB of storage. As Strix laptops are bulky machines (weighing as much as seven pounds in the 18-inch model), they're loaded with ports, including HDMI 2.1, ethernet, 3.5mm audio jack, five total USB ports for Intel models (three USB-A, one USB-C, and one Thunderbolt 4), and four total USB ports for AMD configs (two USB-A and two USB4). The new Asus TUF Gaming laptops also come in a variety of sizes and flavors, all now equipped with less costly RTX 5060 configurations than just their current RTX 5070 configurations. Like the Strix G models, the TUFs are fairly chunky gaming-focused laptops but they make some sacrifices for the sake of reaching certain price points, like lower 144Hz and 165Hz refresh rates and the TUF A18 having an ancient USB 2.0 plug among its five total USB ports. (Heresy, I know.) At $1,599.99 there's the 18-inch TUF A18 and 16-inch TUF F16. The A18 comes with an AMD Ryzen 7 260 (Hawk Point) CPU and the F16 has an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX (Arrow Lake). The TUF A14 and TUF A16 are next up at $1,699.99, with the 14-inch packing an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 (the same Krackan Point chip I recently tested on the Framework Laptop 13) and the 16-inch getting the same Ryzen 7 260 as its bigger 18-inch sibling. The simplest update is for Asus's ROG Zephyrus G14 laptop, which is getting a $1,799.99 configuration with RTX 5060 graphics. The Zephyrus is Asus's thinner gaming laptop that leans a little more towards the conventional, lending itself to traveling and not looking totally out of place in a cafe or library. The laptop still looks as it did when the G14 was redesigned back in early 2024, with a 14-inch 2880 x 1800 120Hz OLED display, AMD Ryzen AI 9 270 CPU, 16GB of RAM, 1TB SSD, one USB4, one USB-C, two USB-A, HDMI 2.1, and a 3.5mm audio jack. Just as the recently refreshed models from CES using higher-end RTX 50-series GPUs, its USB-C ports got a tiny upgrade that allows you to use Power Delivery charging on either side. But, of course, if you want to get the most graphics power out of this compact gaming laptop you'll have to plug in its hefty charger with reversible proprietary connector. Since all of these laptops are equipped with the RTX 5060, they're compatible with Nvidia's DLSS 4 and Multi Frame Generation. While some models are available now through Asus's online store and select retailers, the full availability of all configs is expected through June.
