RTX2060 spotted
- Thread starter CAT-THE-FIFTH
- Start date
I don't understand why people are so worried about a card that hardly anyone on this forum will buy.
More people on this forum will be using the RTX Titan.
Personally I don't like product sharing the same headline name while offering wildly different capabilities, from any company. The 1030 DDR version took the biscuit and it's at the lower end of the market where the least informed buyers lurk
I don't think it is even sound business practice to have that many SKUs and just pushes up production costs.
As Henry Ford once said "You can have any color so long as it is black".
I hate to say it but this 2060 matches the criteria perfectly that I set for replacing my 970.
Roughly double the performance for roughly the same money that the 970 cost me!
...But there is just no way I could get past having a 60 series card in my rig.

People would if it had "Nvidia" stickers on it.

AMD Fury/Fury X in 2015/2016: "The 4GB vram is clearly holding the card back and what a let-down/wasted potential it is"Got to laugh at people defending a 3GB VRAM card in 2019 which will cost upward of £250...
Nvidia 2060 3GB in 2019: "The 3GB vram is not an issue, people just need to turn the graphic settings down"
I rest my case

They defend cards none of them would ever buy in a million years even for 1080p gaming, but it's NV so must pretend 3GB is fine.

I don't see anyone defending the 2060 3GB edition, I just see people call out bogus comparisons and performance claims of which we still no next to nothing about.
Will the 2060 be a good card, who knows, until we have proper reviews and prices we just do not know yet.
Will the 2060 3GB be a good card, well it wont be as good as the 6GB version or the 4 GB version for that matter, but is it a cut down core like the 1060, we have no idea, so lets just wait and see.
Just remember their is no such thing as a bad graphics card just bad prices.

Interesting, RTX 2060 6GB will able to run Battlefield V at 1080p with RTX Medium provide playable 65 fps and 88 fps with DLSS. At RTX Ultra provide playable 58 fps and with DLSS would provide around 78 fps.
Battlefield V: RT Off: 90 FPS
Battlefield V: RT On + DLSS Off: 65 FPS
Battlefield V: RT On + DLSS On: 88 FPS
Look like Battlefield V upcoming patch in January will enable DLSS support that will let RTX 2080 Ti owners finally able to play at 4K 60 fps with RTX Ultra.
It would be nice to see Battlefield V or Anthem game bundle with RTX 2060 mean the 6GB GDDR6 cards will worth around £274 alone and 3GB GDDR5X cards will worth around £184 alone. Not bad.

Prices are not including VAT. Going by the $349 leaked price means with our exchange rate plus VAT means they will be £335.
So 1070Ti performance for 1070Ti price so now the *60 series are priced at previous *70 Prices
That's progress folks!

£300+ for a x60 
like others have said its pretty much just matching 1070ti/vega 56 for price and performance.
3gb and 4gb versions not even worth looking at in 2019 imo, even the 970 4 years ago had 3.5 for £250. maybe if you play at 720p? Nvidia going back to their old fermi/kepler ways and skimping on vram.
where does this leave the 2050, 1060 3gb performance for £180-200?

£300+ for a x60
£300+ for a x60 is nothing new. We had £300+ for Gigabyte and ASUS GTX 1060 6GB cards back in 2016 and 2017.
If games developers said 3GB and 4GB versions are not even worth in 2019 games then Nvidia would not build 3GB and 4GB versions anymore. Your 720p comment for a GTX 970 is a loads of nonsense, I bought GTX 970 back in 2014, it ran very heavy demanded 1080p games with all options maxed out just fine used less than 4GB VRAM so no big deal!
https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/geforce-rtx-2050-also-discovered-in-benchmark-results.html
We probably will see RTX 2050 with 896 CUDA cores at less than £150 with performance faster than GTX 1060 3GB and RTX 2050 Ti with 1024 CUDA cores at £150-£180 with performance faster than GTX 1060 6GB.
But why would you?
Anyone on a 10 series like a 1070 (or higher) card has no real reason to upgrade (from a performance standpoint) and should just skip this Turing generation.
For someone like me on a 970, the upgrade would be worthwhile, with a more than doubling of performance at roughly the same price as I paid for my 970 in 2014.
..But I'm still going to skip these overpriced Turing turkeys.
