MSI GeForce RTX 5060 SHADOW 2X OC 8GB Graphics Card

Description

Upgrade your rig with the MSI GeForce RTX™ 5060 SHADOW 2X OC 8GB, a graphics card built to deliver high-efficiency cooling, strong performance, and whisper-quiet operation. Designed with gamers in mind, the SHADOW series offers a clean, performance-centric aesthetic powered by NVIDIA’s latest RTX™ 5060 GPU architecture, making it the ideal choice for builders and upgraders who want next-gen visuals without sacrificing acoustic comfort.

Harness the power of 3840 CUDA® cores and 8GB of ultra-fast GDDR7 memory on a 128-bit bus, pushing performance to new heights with up to 2535 MHz Extreme Clock speeds via MSI Center. The card’s PCIe Gen 5 x16 interface (operating at x8) ensures blistering throughput, while DisplayPort 2.1b and HDMI™ 2.1b outputs support resolutions up to 8K at 120Hz or 4K at 480Hz, complete with HDR and G-SYNC® support for smooth, tear-free gameplay.

The SHADOW 2X OC features TORX Fan 5.0 technology, a refined dual-fan cooling solution where fan blades are linked by ring arcs and tilted at 22° to boost airflow by 23% over standard axial fans. This design ensures better pressure, higher cooling capacity, and reduced turbulence—keeping your GPU cooler, even under intense workloads.

Beneath the shroud, heat is drawn away rapidly by high-efficiency heat pipes, which work in tandem with a robust heatsink and reinforced backplate with ventilation, allowing warm air to escape directly through the card. The intelligent fan control system activates only when needed, maintaining complete silence during idle or light usage. When the action heats up, the fans automatically engage for optimal thermal regulation.

Whether you’re diving into fast-paced shooters, creative workloads, or expansive open worlds, the RTX™ 5060 SHADOW 2X OC provides the graphical horsepower and thermal stability required for a consistently smooth experience.

FEATURES:

Extreme Clock: 2535 MHz (MSI Center)
Boost Clock: 2527 MHz
TORX Fan 5.0: Fan blades linked by ring arcs work to stabilize and maintain high-pressure airflow.
Heat Pipes designed for efficient heat transfer, the heat pipes effectively draw thermal energy away from the GPU.
Reinforcing Backplate: The reinforcing backplate features an airflow vent that allows exhaust air to directly pass through.
