My cats breath smells like cat food
i dont have a cat
As every cat owner knows, nobody owns a cat.
Shit this x60 price hiking is so real, still remember the day that my 560 cost about 300ish.
Considering the AUD was at parity with the USD at that time and is now adding about 40% to the price of imports and inflation of the AUD since 2011 is about 14%, you got a really bad deal on a 560 because thats about the same at this deal right now when comparing actual purchasing power.
Nod sure how do you calculate the purchasing power, but I pretty sure for the same job or title, the salary hasnt increase by that much?
I think deeper cause for this is shortage of competition in this segment. The technology and performance lead by Nvidia give it well headroom to define what he ask for.
I hate nvidia for making this a 6gb sku
You wanted?
Why? Do you actually understand VRAM allocation in games, or are you just hoping to get a complete 4k card for a song?
This is a godly 1440p card, and should quickly be found at $450.
I wanted to use the card for iRay rendering and 6gb kinda sucks
Well if you're trying to be budget conscious, wait until June-July and grab a discounted 2070. Alternatively, as the 2070 is the full TU106, they may slot in a 2060 Ti with the full 256-bit bus and 8GB of VRAM.
NVidia is in market trouble - big push to sell this model which outperforms narrowly ti's in many modern games because of the new tech in the new games. older games are different because of the engines.
but what are you getting for the money for a 2060? not that much really since it uses more juice than a ti even though the ti is 2 years older…
its a money grab backed by some very interesting reviews..price will probably fall substantially within 3 months unless some shortages are manufactured again…
Yeah theyre going to drop the prices like these real soon or suffer the sting
In a cat's eye, all things belong to cats.
i dont know why your getting negged, this is clearly a ray tracing scam
Prices won't drop significantly before June… they will however normalise to global MSRP with some sales below that mark. This is the first card available around global MSRP in Australia (which is $530, FYI).
There's also a decent Gigabyte card at exactly MSRP at Newegg.
If it's the single fan I'd avoid it. Apparently the fan on it's nasty.
This card (evga 1 fan) is apparently fairly fine though. Worth a buy if you can't wait (and want to deal with new egg).
I'm referring to the dual-fan OC card. It's a cheapish fan, but it'll certain perform well enough.
$500 for midrange now. Just crazy.
Especially with BTC being almost worthless now.
Back in the day a $1000 could get you a high end PC. Now it gets you a high end GPU…makes you wonder if consoles aren't so bad after all.
Next year 3070 probably gonna cost you more than 1000.
Back in which day? Back in my teens there wasn't 3D cards and PC's cost a hella a lot more.
Haha I guess I'm younger than most of this site. The most recent time that I remember the most well was 2016. That was the time when I was really getting into gaming so I was looking into building my own system. Around when RX480 was released. The 970 and 480 were really cheap and coupled with the fact that RAM wasn't a bitch to buy and even power supplies were cheaper, you could build a nice PC with no compromises for less than $1k.
However at least SSDs are hella cheap now which is awesome.
Back in the day your income was lower and each dollar was worth more… welcome to inflation. Combine that with this card being in a completely different weight class to the 1060 as well as having a whole bunch of extra features, and you get a price increase.
This is a 30 SM GPU that performs at a 1080 level, and that will likely increase significantly over time. There'll be a 24 SM version in less than two weeks at the normal x60 price point.
I wonder the same but it all balances out. With a console you need a very expensive TV to make the most of it, and games are rarely cheap unless you get a subscription to ps+ or Xbox live. With a switch you don't need a TV at all, but the good games are never less than $50, even second hand. With a PC you gotta buy all the expensive parts, sure. But then AAA games from two years are are $10 or free. Every choice requires compromises.
$500.50 AU with free shipping from the AU newegg site
yeah got my 5870 at release for 550 from an australian store, the 1080s where about 500 USD at there best time, then there was the shortage and they shot up in price… dont know how they can justify these crazy prices… i guess as long as people are prepared to spend this much, they will be quite happy to sell them for this much…
Has anyone actually done TRS refund for Newegg purchases? Their receipt says VAT/GST and the ABN checks out
You need to have it with you tho and that's weird
You don't take your GPU with you on holiday?
There are some Vega on that newegg site with various discounts too.
V64 is faster than this model according to Hothardware
But none are cheaper than this card.
Even the Vega 56 is more expensive.If you are by ing a monitor at the same time like I am, the price savings on freesync are a consideration in the overall build.
With the latest gen Nvidia cards, they're actually now supporting FreeSync monitors.
So that's no longer a valid argument against Nvidia GPUs.
(I'm assuming they finally realised they were losing customers because of it.)@entropysbane: Yeah it's a brand new feature with the latest gen. Only supports FreeSync over DisplayPort, but it's a much needed feature nonetheless.
Sad state when $500 is a good deal for an X60 card. GTX 460 cost me like three fiddy, back when it came out. It was a beast of a card, too.
The 1060 6GB was a budget 1440p60 card for most games. This is a budget 1440p144 card, and that's without a bunch of pending features being brought into games.
Next gen, virtually every card in the product stack will be 4k. This gen, you've already got 4 cards that will be able to spit out 4k60 at various quality levels.
In what games can this reach 1440p 144?
On high settings? Heaps.
@Jugganautx: If you actually want to hash this out fully, list system specs, games and game settings.
I don't know where you're pulling this crazy information from (Trolling for Dummies?) but a 2060 isn't going to be running much more than CS and LoL at 1440p, 144 FPS.
It runs at 80-140 FPS on max settings in most games… turn the notch down one and it sails…
Maybe look at a benchmark sometime?
@jasswolf: You could probably reach 1440p 144 with a 1060 too if you just 'turned down the settings'.
@Ostrk: You'd go close, but not in AAA games. And there's probably a happy medium between ultra and high, likely through flipping AA off.
AA aside, most people would be lucky to spot the differences. So yeah, budget 1440p144hz card: check reddit, check the reviews.
is this card better than a 1070ti?
Yes.
Reviews put it fractionally faster than the 1070ti and 1080 with 2gb less vram in most games. I believe Hardware unboxed did a nice round up with performance, they also recently did a video on the 6gb vram concerns. Good videos to watch to get a nice unbiased opinion. No association with them.
They actually have a tendency to be quite biased, even sometimes in their benchmarking. They've been asked to pull their heads in a bit by both the community and GPU companies alike, and to their credit they have been doing that.
The 2060 basically is 1080 performance, and that will increase more significantly over time due to the sheer mass of architectural updates. Turning on DLSS bumps that at least 30% as well, which unlocks 4k60 fps performance at 6GB of VRAM.
Their VRAM analysis showed what any one paying attention has known for years: 6GB is good enough for 1440p in properly optimised games, unless you crank out old-school supersampling techniques (which are naturally of a higher resolution than 1440p).
@jasswolf: Verdict still seems to be out on DLSS at least from the last few videos ive seen from gamers nexus and so. Not really enough evidence yet, only games confirming DLSS is on the delivery pipeline, not that many with actual working evidence of implementation (happy to be corrected if you have some more info, maybe FF.
Also interested to know what the Hardware unboxed guys have been called out on ? Most things they reply back to have been comments from people who seem to have misinterpreted their statements, i.e. the rtx2060 salt, but happy to be corrected :)
@ashoz85: The fact that they were pulled from the NVIDIA reviewer list and had to purchase their own 2060 (or at the very least, source a card from a vendor after launch) tells you what you need to know there.
In terms of DLSS, the analysis by GamersNexus was also super picky and kept showing the one flaw over and over again. When you see the games in full motion, DLSS is overall a superior showing to 4x TAA, and that's impressive for what is a beta on FFXV.
We'll see updates to that, and DLSS in BFV and Anthem shortly.
@jasswolf: Well to be frank, no it absolutely doesn't tell us what we need to know.
Their reviews of nvidia products have always been pretty accurate from memory with mostly valid criticism's, but that is what we actually want from these hardware channels not fluff reviews talking about how awesome products are when the improvements are not that impressive for the period between pascal and turing.
From the outside looking in and without knowing anything else (because in the end thats all we really know, unless of course there is insider info that has been published) is appears nvidia were simply not happy with their criticisms and decided to not let them have a card.
I agree with your comment on the gamers nexus info, they did go over certain issues alot but again is this not what we want? Nvidia have released an entirely new architecture which is super impressive all credit to them, and raved about how much better its going to be without any real proof in games. BETA's and media releases is the only evidence we have and so far its not that good.
Oh and to be fair i think the 2060 is probably the most impressive RTX card available right now, its reasonably prices (with the current market anyway) and has great performance.
@ashoz85: They called RTX cards a meme, rather than try and break down the architectural nitty gritty and show how they'll evolve over time.
They also completely botched their Zen 2 coverage and have been called out for their comments. They are benchmarkers first and foremost, and that's reflected in their inability to analyse and predict future behaviour.
GamersNexus is far more balanced despite being somewhat scathing of Turing as well. You should probably further your learning beyond YouTube, it has a tendency to be pit of despair and drama for clicks.
@jasswolf: Wow ok so because I watch and mention a couple of YouTube channels you have pigeon holed me and my apparent knowledge? I’ve worked in computer science as a designer, developer and QA for the past 10 years so I would consider myself somewhat educated. I believe my points are valid and simply because I apparently disagree with you, you have decide to try attack my intellect. Solid form bud.
Oos
Will this moon lambo shitcoins?
nah, asic miners will send most of them to fry in the sun.
Ok, I buy some Verge coin. I heard it will moon lambo soon.
Good price if it’s suppose to be faster then the gtx1070ti
