RTX2060?

I'd still get vega 56

So would I, but it was a lot of hard work getting a partner to offer 2060 at sub £300, hopefully more shall follow suite.
Just like I am battering the partners like crazy to get a 2080 down to £599, problem is the board partners have so little margin its very difficult for them to do.
 
Yup watched that Hardware Unboxed video on if 6Gb of VRAM cuts it for gaming.
(Excellent tech channel btw, right up there with Gamers Nexus and JaysTwoCents).


And at the moment... for the most part 6Gb is ok.

But I certainly feel a little more ' future proofed ' by having 8Gb (or more).
That was one of the reasons I decided to pay a little extra for the 2070.

Agreed, however the £120 I saved on the 2070, I figured I'd put towards a 2080 in 18 months should I need too (or whatever is good then)
 
Im thinking of upgrading my 4GB R9 290 to a 6GB RTX 2060 because you can get some nice small 1 fan cards in that series, so less noise and dust, plus about a 50% performance increase over my R9 290
