The Vulkan score aligns pretty well with 1440p and/or 4K average gaming performance, depending on VRAM limitations.
And it matches my prediction, so this seems legit to me.

Unfortunate for most RTX 5060/Ti owners that get this blank screen issue, as most people don't update their BIOS's.
Best would be for it to be implemented via a driver update, but at least it's just on reboot, and there is a fix.

Regarding new 8GB cards (eg 9060 XT and 5060/Ti):
They'll play the most popular/esports games fine, as I've seen people argue
Which is true, but so will most cards from the past 5~10 years
So they don't have much sell esp when 16GB models don't cost much more
Best just not bothering with them

The BOM cost of the RX 9060 XT 16 GB should be ~$200 and the 8 GB ~$150.
Perf wise vs the 5060 Ti's they should be ~10% slower in raster and ~20% slower in RT.
Thus the 9060 XT 16 GB should have an MSRP of ~$350~400 and the 8 GB ~$300~350.
Could be ~$50 less but it's unlikely esp with the tariffs
