What actually differs
Both GPUs launched in 2025: the GeForce RTX 5060 on Blackwell and the GeForce RTX 5090 on Blackwell.
Dense throughput for the GeForce RTX 5060 against the GeForce RTX 5090: FP64 0.3 vs 1.6 TFLOPS, FP32 19 vs 105 TFLOPS, FP16 77 vs 419 TFLOPS, FP8 154 vs 838 TFLOPS. Sparse figures, where the vendor publishes them, appear under each dense number in the performance table.
Memory is 8 GB against 32 GB, fed at 448 GB/s versus 1.8 TB/s. More memory per GPU means larger models fit before you have to shard across cards, which often matters more than raw TFLOPS for inference.
Power budgets are 145 W for the GeForce RTX 5060 and 575 W for the GeForce RTX 5090. At FP32 that works out to 0.13 against 0.18 TFLOPS per watt.
For LLM training and inference, weight the FP8 and FP16 rows and memory capacity most heavily. For scientific and HPC workloads, the FP64 row is the one to read.
