Nvidia announces RTX 2060, more powerful than GTX 1070 Ti at $350

Golden review 2060 sample vs reference vega cards. Frametimes/min fps are also more important, the 2060 falls apart in some games at 1440p/4k.
The above video looks more realistic with non throttling vega cards, some of the min framerates on the 2060 at 1440p is

Actually, I'd say the Vegas are nicely clocked there as well, so not much difference in sillicon luck. The frametimes are indeed the biggest weakeness of the RTX 2060 and has been evident from going through all the reviews (https://videocardz.com/79627/nvidia-geforce-rtx-2060-review-roundup). There's something strange going on a few times in the performance difference between the cards at 1440p vs 4K where the 2060 gets crushed at 1440p but then somehow does much better at 4K, so I wonder what's going on on screen itself and whether the 2060 simply gives up & nukes texture streaming/quality and that allows it to get some performance back, or what. Will have to investigate it myself if I get my hands on it.
First 2060 non Founders Edition review I've seen

£349.99 @ OCUK if the pricing on the mobile website is indeed correct.

So 50 fps with RTX at ultra. A little rubbish, as my monitor is 75hz. Not exactly a card for 1080p if you want Ray Tracing
If you want higher frame rates in BFV with Raytracing on you'll need to tweak settings as per this DF article or wait for DLSS patch (due on 15th Jan I think).
hmm likely to go with founders for me i guess, seems like palit noiser, and hotter, sure theres the oc to it already but still...

Ouch, you can really see the vram bottlenecking coming in to play in some of those lol
That is your future if you buy this card.
The only worry with the FE imo is that the CS/RMA is horrible for them, lots of horror stories with Digital River (the company that handles it) even for their Titan cards. That's one of the strengths of Nvidia cards imo, having the option for partners with strong customer support & warranty options, like EVGA etc, so going with the FE negates that. Wouldn't do it myself tbh. That's what I don't like for AMD, their partners are not on par on that front.

Have to admit, if I was spending this much on a new card I would also want 8GB. I have 6GB on my current card, and I wouldnt consider this top end.
There's a few games in which the 2060 is faster than the 1080 when you overclock it. That and we need to wait for the DLSS patch for BF5 to see ray tracing at high framerates.

Digital Foundry reporting that a GTX 1060 with 6GB Vram doesn't suffer problems with texture pop in/stutter @ 4K on the Resident Evil 2 demo!
Apparently the Vram usage in the options menu is bugged.
