GALAX Intros GeForce RTX 2060 12GB 1-Click OC Graphics Card

btarunr · Dec 8, 2021

GALAX today joined other NVIDIA board partners in launching its custom-design GeForce RTX 2060 12 GB graphics card. NVIDIA re-launched the RTX 2060, based on the "Turing" graphics architecture, with double the memory amount and a few more CUDA cores—2,176 vs. 1,920 on the original. This is NVIDIA's response to the Radeon RX 6600. The custom-design board by GALAX, which will also be sold under the KFA2 brand in certain markets, features an aluminium fin-stack heatsink with direct-touch heat-pipes, and a pair of 90 mm fans that stay off when the card is idling. It pulls power from a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. The card is factory-overclocked with 1695 MHz GPU Boost, compared to 1650 MHz NVIDIA reference, but a software-based 1-click OC mode can bump up the boost clock to 1710 MHz. The memory ticks at 14 Gbps (GDDR6-effective). The company didn't reveal pricing.

I can see the old 6GB 2060s in stock at etailers for 786/808/987/1104 euro so by that logic the new 2060 12 GB one will sell for 1000-1200-1400 euro.
Great, GREAT launch.

This gives me the same vibe as seeing AMD using 3000 series chips as the budget GPU's instead of releasing a low end 5000 series

Is this the new trend, where 'last gen' gets revived as next gens budget offering instead of new products?
