When using the 5060Ti with an x8 interface, the bandwidth of the card is reduced by half.

I don't get it, do you mean the graphics card has an incorrect interface that slows it down? Then placing it in a motherboard with modern PCI Express or PCI 6.0 wouldn't help, and performance would be reduced. Please clarify.

Instead of using a 6-inch pipe, a 3-inch pipe is used. A newer PCI express version works similarly to higher water pressure. Even though the pipe is smaller, increased pressure allows it to move more data, improving performance.

The 5060 features an 8 lane PCIe5 connection, which is adequate for PCIe5. Even without a PCIe5 motherboard, the 5060 retains 8 lanes, though they operate at reduced speeds on PCIe4 or PCIe3 configurations. In some cases, these lower-speed lanes may not be sufficient to maximize GPU performance. A GPU equipped with a 16 lane PCIe5 port will maintain 16 lanes on PCIe4, providing ample capacity for this GPU type regardless of lane speed limitations.

Yes, you are correct. With a PCIe 5.0 motherboard and a 5060 graphics card, the GPU operates at its maximum speed without being limited by the PCIe Express interface. You should avoid using PCIe 4 motherboards.

It’s essentially the core idea, though I doubt it will significantly impact most situations. Why invest in PCIe 4.0 when 5.0 motherboards are easily accessible in 2025?
