Reddit user buys MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti for $80 at Walmart

In other words, about four times below the going retail price

A Reddit forum user going by the name ForkDryer shared what looks like an exceptionally good bargain: they picked up an MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X OC Edition graphics card for just $80 at a Walmart store. The card was part of a clearance sale, with the shelf label showing it had been reduced from $350 down to $80.

Which GeForce RTX 5060 Ti version was discounted?

This was the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti variant with 8 GB of video memory. The model launched with a recommended price of $380, and in the US market it typically sells for around $400 at the moment. That means the buyer paid roughly four times less than the current retail price.

What the MSI RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X is aimed at

The MSI RTX 5060 Ti Ventus 2X is far from the most powerful version available and is primarily geared towards gaming at Full HD resolution. Even so, getting an accelerator like this for $80 today is a real stroke of luck.
