Nvidia accused of delaying RTX 5060 reviews by withholding drivers

  • Nvidia withheld pre-release drivers for its upcoming RTX 5060 GPU ahead of its May 19, 2025 launch, delaying independent reviews.
  • This delay stems from Nvidia not sending review units or corresponding drivers to media, a departure from its usual practice causing concerns.
  • The RTX 5060 features 3,840 CUDA cores and 8GB VRAM, offering a performance uplift but struggles at higher resolutions compared to 16GB variants.
  • Several outlets, like Hardware Unboxed and Igor’s Lab, criticized Nvidia’s move, noting it forces day-one impressions to rely on Nvidia’s own data and few reviewers not at Computex.
  • The delayed coverage limits consumers’ ability to evaluate the $299 mainstream card before purchase and raises questions about Nvidia’s intent to suppress negative performance reports.
