Better for Shadow 5 Gaming PC (RTX 5060 Ti)

  • Recreational Player

    The RTX 5060 Ti runs SkyTrak's Windows app, E6 Connect and GSPro at 1080p to 1440p with headroom. Its 16GB of RAM is enough for one sim at a time; with the sim, the launch monitor's app and a swing camera open together, 32GB has more room.

  • Performance Seeker

    A faster card than the RTX 5060 for GSPro at 1440p. It is still short of what the performance stacks ask for: the RTX 5070 Foresight Premier lists for Medium, Uneekor's RTX 4070 Ti and 32GB, and GSPro's RTX 3080 and 32GB for 4K. For those, the Skytech King 95.

  • Cost-Effective Buyer

    About $1,900, about $700 more than the Skytech Ryzen 7 5700 (RTX 5060, 32GB). The extra buys a faster graphics card and CPU, not memory: it has half the RAM. The cost-effective case depends on catching it discounted.
