[COMPUTEX 2025] NVIDIA Computex Announcements: RTX 5060 Now Available, Plus Project G-Assist Updates

Unsurprisingly, NVIDIA is among the biggest player in Computex 2025 through the sheer influence it possesses in the ever-popular AI segment, so it’s perhaps not that surprising that the last RTX 50 product launch – the GeForce RTX 5060 – is relegated to a mere footnote that not even Jensen Huang cared to mention its specs during the keynote.

RTX 5060 Released

In any case, here’s a quick rundown on the new mid-range entry from Team Green: the RTX 5060 desktop GPU and RTX 5060 laptop GPU differ slightly in specs, with the former featuring 3840 CUDA cores, while the latter packs 3328 CUDA cores. Regardless of form factor, 8GB of VRAM is all you get, and this is going to end up being a significant bottleneck if recent game releases are any indication. Pricing starts at $299 for the desktop card, while laptops featuring this GPU start at $1,099 – both are now available worldwide.

Also, More AI Announcements

Amongst a big wave of AI-related feature announcements, here’s one that might be relevant for gamers: Project G-Assist Plug-in Builder. Per NVIDIA, this is a ChatGPT-based application that enables no-code or low-code development through natural language input, which can then be shared on GitHub or Discord. (In case you missed it, Project G-Assist is NVIDIA’s chatbot that is designed to execute tasks or respond to questions – here’s our testing takeaways.)

Several open-source plug-in samples are now accessible on GitHub, and these include: an updated version of the Google Gemini plug-in, an IFTTT plug-in for automations, and a Discord plug-in for sharing game highlights; there’s also demonstrations of hands-free Spotify music control and Twitch livestream monitoring. Besides opening this to community developers, SignalRGB is working on a plug-in that will support unified lighting control across devices from multiple manufacturers, which will soon be installable directly from the SignalRGB app.

Other related announcements include TensorRT and NVIDIA NIM for consumer RTX GPUs, DOOM gaining path tracing support this June, and some minor progress updates on its DLSS 4 and RTX Remix features.

Pokdepinion: Felt like RTX 5060 is not going to be particularly exciting this time around.
