What it is
Our main score for this model, 1–10. It combines specs, expert reviews, best-of lists and owners.
How we count it
Parts: Technical score 40%, Reviews score 25%, List score 25%, Sentiment score 10%
Marks: Each part gets a mark out of 10. For reviews, lists and owners, a typical model in this category gets about 8 and the best one gets 10.
No data yet: A part with no data shows "?". It counts as the mark of a weaker model in this category (4 in 5 models with data score higher). This way, models with reviews, lists and owners usually come out ahead.

What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.6 for now.

Based on 164 owners sharing their experience in online comments

74%positive14%mixed12%negative

Owners praise smooth, affordable gaming, while limited memory can force lower settings in demanding games.

What owners dislike

  • The 8GB memory fills up over time in demanding games, and frame rates can drop sharply after 15 minutes, forcing lower textures or settings.20
  • Owners say it struggles with heavy games and 1440p, with frame rates falling to around 30 to 60 fps in some titles unless settings or resolution drop.9

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Infinity 2 OC 8GB

  • 145 W board power keeps power demand low.
  • A 550 W recommended power supply is a light requirement.
  • At 500 g it is light for a graphics card.
  • ECC memory helps where a silent error would do damage.
  • DisplayPort link rates of 80 Gbps suit high-refresh monitors.
  • BF16 performance of 153.5 TFLOPS speeds up AI workloads.

What customers don't like about Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Infinity 2 OC 8GB

  • 8 GB of memory is tight for large creative files.
  • At 262 mm long it needs a case with clearance.
  • Multi frame generation only works in games that support it.
  • With 19.2 TFLOPS FP32 it is less suited to the heaviest compute jobs.

Verdict

Low power draw is the main reason to pick the Palit GeForce RTX 5060 Infinity 2 OC 8GB. It draws 145 W at peak and recommends a 550 W unit, so the rest of the build can stay modest. At 500 g it is light, and its 89 °C maximum junction temperature lets it run warmer before it slows down. DLSS and multi frame generation help frame rates in supported games, and the 2512 MHz boost clock sets the working speed. The memory is the weak spot, since 8 GB is tight for large creative files. ECC memory is on board too, which helps for work that cannot afford a silent error. It suits a builder with an ordinary power supply who wants a low-power card for everyday gaming and light creative work.
