TL;DR: NVIDIA’s mainstream GeForce RTX 5060 GPU launches with compact, low-power designs ideal for small form factor PCs. ZOTAC showcased a palm-sized triple-fan prototype and the available single-fan dual-slot RTX 5060 SOLO, both optimized for efficient cooling and compatibility with nearly all PC builds.

NVIDIA's mainstream GeForce RTX 5060 GPU is out this week, and at Computex 2025, we've already seen countless models and designs from the company's partners, many of which look familiar. However, one particular RTX 5060 caught our eye and was found at ZOTAC's booth.

You're looking at a prototype and a card still in development. Alongside its low-profile design, it's also one of the smallest RTX 50 Series GPUs you're likely to find - small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.

It's a reference spec model with three fans, and it looks like a miniature version of ZOTAC GAMING's triple-fan SOLID series of cards for the GeForce RTX 50 Series. The fans are tiny, and it's so light that at a glance, you'd probably mistake it for a toy of a real GPU.

As NVIDIA has released its mainstream and more affordable GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, which feature smaller chips and draw less power than the beefier models, we'll probably start seeing more of these compact models for SFF builds and Mini PCs. This low-profile prototype is so small it puts the 8-pin power connector on the rear, and the I/O bracket only has room for two DisplayPort 2.1 outputs and a single HDMI 2.1 port.

In addition to this prototype, ZOTAC also displayed its single-fan dual-slot ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 5060 SOLO, a model that is available now. This, too, is compact but somehow looks big compared to the low-profile model. Still, ZOTAC notes that it can fit into 99% of PC builds, so it's perfect for even the smallest ITX rig.
