NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Founders Edition Pictured, Tested
Here are some of the first pictures of NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 2060 Founders Edition graphics card. You'll know from our older report that there could be as many as six variants of the RTX 2060 based on memory size and type. The Founders Edition is based on the top-spec one with 6 GB of GDDR6 memory. The card looks similar in design to the RTX 2070 Founders Edition, which is probably because NVIDIA is reusing the reference-design PCB and cooling solution, minus two of the eight memory chips. The card continues to pull power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector.
According to VideoCardz, NVIDIA could launch the RTX 2060 on the 15th of January, 2019. It could get an earlier unveiling by CEO Jen-Hsun Huang at NVIDIA's CES 2019 event, slated for January 7th. The top-spec RTX 2060 trim is based on the TU106-300 ASIC, configured with 1,920 CUDA cores, 120 TMUs, 48 ROPs, 240 tensor cores, and 30 RT cores. With an estimated FP32 compute performance of 6.5 TFLOP/s, the card is expected to perform on par with the GTX 1070 Ti from the previous generation in workloads that lack DXR. VideoCardz also posted performance numbers obtained from NVIDIA's Reviewer's Guide, that point to the same possibility.In its Reviewer's Guide document, NVIDIA tested the RTX 2060 Founders Edition on a machine powered by a Core i9-7900X processor and 16 GB of memory. The card was tested at 1920 x 1080 and 2560 x 1440, its target consumer segment. Performance numbers obtained at both resolutions point to the card performing within ±5% of the GTX 1070 Ti (and possibly the RX Vega 56 from the AMD camp). The guide also mentions an SEP pricing of the RTX 2060 6 GB at USD $349.99.

BTW, you failed to invalidate my point.
Its not a positive for Turing that the price is equal to Pascal. Not. At. All. Anyone explaining it like that is doing it to justify a bad deal. And its not a positive this 2060 is even a Turing card to begin with, because its DXR performance is abysmal.
Oh yeah, and to top it off, Nvidia gives you six 2060's to pick from ;) Because its such a well rounded card, why not use a myriad of different buses and VRAM chips. 350 bucks for scraps and leftovers 'Good deal'. :laugh:
400$ for a mid-range card (see what a 2080 Ti can do) is not good.
Nvidia doubled they're prices because AMD is waiting for next year to propose something, because they are focusing on CPU and don't have Nvidia nor Intel firepower. They can't do both GPU and CPU.
So you are bending over waiting for the theft "a month or two".
Here is your invalidation.
Anyone complaining about the price needs to learn how to budget their money better and save up for a bit longer to get the best, whether it's AMD or NVidia.
So you were expecting a 350$ GPU with 1080Ti performamce on the same node?
Cum on, I know you know better than that.
As for 2060, I bet the prices are gonna be up to 500$ for this one.
Here's a set of facts;
1. Every generation of new GPU's get a price increase.
2. Every generation of GPU's offers a performance increase.
3. People always complain about said price increase while trying to minimize or ignoring the increase in performance.
And no, your opinions are just opinions like every other. When it comes to facts, you've paid full price for 3 year old performance, which makes it relatively expensive and therefore logical for other people to feel ripped off, which is why many say they won't pay this price. That is all. Move on.
Said it before, your comparison is pitting an FE 1080ti versus AIB 2080's. Nvidia played that very well. It would be good to realize it. Note how the 2080 OC gains literally zero FPS.
Its alright though, cognitive dissonance is a bitch, isn't it.
