According to Nvidia, the RTX 5060 will be capable of running many AAA games at max settings, with over 100 frames per second frame rates. You can see the results for each game in the slides above, but make note of the small print, which shows that testing is done at 1080p, with DLSS Quality and the maximum Frame Generation level supported.
Another slide also shows some of the first RTX 5060 laptops we'll be seeing, from OEMs like Acer, Alienware / Dell, Asus, Gigabyte, HP, Lenovo, MSI and Razer.
As part of Nvidia's list of gaming announcements for Computex 2025, we get a preview of DOOM: The Dark Age's upcoming Path Tracing update. The game already has ray-tracing effects, but Path Tracing will ensure rays interact with the entire scene, as you can see in the comparison images above.
The Path Tracing update for DOOM: The Dark Ages will be available in June.
With DOOM: The Dark Ages being out now with DLSS 4 support, it is time to look towards the coming months. Today, Nvidia has confirmed 10 more titles launching with or updating to DLSS 4 this year, including:
- Crimson Desert
- F1 25
- FBC: Firebreak
- InZoi
- Light of Motiram
- Mindseye
- Portal with RTX
- Roadcraft
- Splitgate 2
- Wuchang Fallen Feathers
Nvidia is also using this opportunity to remind us all that RTX Remix is now widely available. So far, over 150 RTX Remix mods have been released, and there are over 350 RTX Remix projects in development. One RTX Remix project getting updated soon is Portal RTX, which is being upgraded to include DLSS 4. The RTX Remix Mod Contest is also set to begin, offering modders an opportunity to win up to $50,000 worth of prizes.
