MSI GeForce RTX 5060 8G SHADOW 2X OC: Blackwell in a Compact 197 mm Dual-Fan Card
The SHADOW 2X OC (G5060-8S2C) is MSI's compact dual-fan RTX 5060: NVIDIA's Blackwell GPU with 3,840 CUDA cores and 614 AI TOPS, 8 GB GDDR7 at 28 Gbps on a 128-bit bus, and a 2527 MHz boost clock (2535 MHz in MSI Center's Extreme Performance mode). At 197 mm long it suits small cases, two TORX FAN 5.0 fans cool it, and it draws 145 W through one 8-pin connector with a 550 W PSU recommended.
🎮 1080p and 1440p Gaming with DLSS 4
Fifth-gen Tensor cores run DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation in supported games, fourth-gen RT cores handle ray tracing, and NVIDIA Reflex cuts system latency in competitive titles.
🧰 Creators, Streamers & AI
The ninth-gen NVIDIA Encoder speeds up exports and streams, NVIDIA Studio drivers keep creative apps stable, and 614 AI TOPS accelerate local AI tools and NVIDIA Broadcast effects.
Cooling & Build Quality
Four views of the card, each matched to what MSI engineered into it.
Two TORX FAN 5.0 Fans
Ring arcs link each fan's 22-degree-tilted blades, which MSI rates at 23% more airflow than axial fans. With Zero Frozr the fans stop completely when temperatures are low and start again under gaming load.
Heatsink and Single 8-pin
From the top edge you see the heatsink fins, MSI's heat-pipe design that draws heat away from the GPU, and the single 8-pin power socket.
Backplate with Airflow Vent
The reinforcing backplate strengthens the card, and its vent at the end lets exhaust air from the second fan pass straight through the heatsink.
Four Display Outputs
The bracket carries three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs and one HDMI 2.1b (up to 4K 480 Hz or 8K 120 Hz with DSC), driving up to four displays at a digital maximum of 7680 × 4320.
📊 AI Performance Index (AI TOPS)
AI TOPS measure the Tensor-core throughput behind DLSS 4 and local AI features. Figures from NVIDIA's official specification pages.
