In a world rife with inflation, shortages, tariffs, and other unpleasantries standing in the way of great offers, it’s rare to find a deal that makes your jaw hit the floor. However, that’s just what this GPU and SSD combo from MSI did. If you’re in the market for an RTX 5060, look no further than this cracking offer.
MSI RTX 5060 & Spatium M470 Pro 1TB
“I like a lot of what this graphics card offers, particularly how much of a performance improvement it is over RTX 4060. Still, it’s difficult to shake the concerns I have over VRAM capacity.” Read our review.
On Amazon UK, you can grab an MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Shadow 2X OC and MSI Spatium M470 Pro 1TB SSD together for just £249. That makes a £30 discount on the graphics card alone, with total savings rising to £80 once you include the storage.
In my hands-on experience with RTX 5060, the card delivers solid gaming performance at 1080p that DLSS 4 happily pushes further. You will need to tweak a few settings here and there so as to not oversaturate the pixel pusher’s 8GB buffer, but will mostly affect more-demanding games.
In my testing of RTX 5060, you can expect frame rates similar to RTX 4060 Ti 8GB. For context, that’s over 200fps in esports titles including Rainbow Six. Impressively, this also results in 100fps+ frame rates in the likes of Assassin’s Creed Mirage and Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail.
As for Spatium M470 Pro 1TB, the drive offers sequential read and write transfers of 6,000MB/s and 4,500MB/s, respectively. These are respectable speeds from PCIe Gen 4 storage, and plenty fast for your games library. Just make sure you have a motherboard heatsink on hand to keep the SSD cool.
I don’t expect stock for this combo to last all that long, so I’d pounce on this opportunity while you can. If I’ve not already made the surprise of these circumstances clear, this feels like a deal you find once in a blue moon.
