Supply chain source claims Nvidia is releasing the RTX 5060 in March

Colorful, a major Nvidia board partner in China, has seemingly leaked key details about the upcoming GeForce RTX 5060 series, including a potential March release date.

This information comes from Chaintech (via @wxnod), a Taiwanese company that supplies components to Colorful. Based on Chaintech's 2025 earnings forecast presentation, we know the supposed release dates for all the RTX 50 series cards. With the RTX 5090D (China exclusive) and RTX 5080 already available, we can expect to get the RTX 5070 series later this month, including the RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti. Afterward, in March, we can expect the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060. This aligns with previous rumours and suggests that Nvidia aims to complete its RTX 50 series lineup within the year's first quarter.

Based on previous rumours, it's believed that there will be two RTX 5060 Ti models: one with 16 GB of GDDR7 memory and another with 8 GB. This has been corroborated by an EEC filing by MaxSun (via @Olrak29_), another Nvidia board partner, showing both 16G and 8G models. As for the RTX 5060, it's expected to launch with 8 GB of memory unless Nvidia decides to use 3 GB memory modules.

The GeForce RTX 5060 series is poised to compete with AMD's upcoming Radeon RX 9060 series, which is expected to launch later this year. The RTX 5060 non-Ti could also face competition from Intel's Arc B580, which offers a compelling combination of performance and value in the mainstream segment, albeit with not-so-good drivers (which can always be improved with time).
