The Nvidia RTX 5060 is one of the most anticipated laptop GPUs of the year and it is set to launch in May. There has been considerable drama about the component manufacturer and the availability of its graphics cards of every configuration since the beginning of 2025, that hasn’t stopped fans and enthusiasts’ excitement concerning product launches.
Many brands have been advertising RTX 50-series laptops as early as February, and there are several products in the RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 configurations that have already released, giving consumers a small taste of what to expect for less expensive counterparts. Some companies have online placeholders for yet-to-be-released devices featuring the RTX 5060 graphics card, while other brands have not yet confirmed their devices will include the GPU, but many in the industry are very certain.
Either way, there are several models that have been connected to either the RTX 5060 or the RTX 5060i, which recently launched in mid-April. Reports have indicated that Nvidia will have RTX 5060 laptops available from “every major OEM.”
Here’s a rundown of what specifications may be included in the RTX 5060 laptops.
