Verdict
With the RTX 5080 running 65% above the RTX 5060 — a $839.01 premium — the two cards sit in meaningfully different price brackets. The RTX 5060 wins on value unless the extra performance matters for your workload.
The RTX 5080's 16 GB of VRAM is a 8 GB advantage over the RTX 5060. At 4K or in heavily modded games that extra buffer matters — and it provides headroom as future titles push VRAM requirements higher.
Budget-conscious buyers have an extra option: the RTX 5060 can be found used on eBay around $350.00, roughly $109.99 below its new street price. If you're comfortable buying used, that saving could shift the value equation between these two cards.
Unless you specifically need what the RTX 5080 offers, the RTX 5060 is the stronger value at this price gap.
