Computerbase for example has their review article online, &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.computerbase.de&amp;#x2F;2019-01&amp;#x2F;nvidia-geforce-rtx-2060-test&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.computerbase.de&amp;#x2F;2019-01&amp;#x2F;nvidia-geforce-rtx-2060-...&lt;/a&gt;. For that workload it&amp;#x27;s at the level of a GTX 1080&amp;#x2F;RTX 2070 when overclocked, only a bit lower on stock. Pretty good, and clearly faster than the 1070.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wlesieutre</author><text>Have to wait for benchmarks to say anything definitive, but from the specs table it looks like performance is in the ballpark of the 1070. Same TFLOPS, faster memory clock but not as much memory, TDP is 10W higher.&lt;p&gt;At $350 that sounds like a tough sell over the 1070, which is finally down to $300 after rebate. Unless you&amp;#x27;re really excited about the raytracing stuff.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m underwhelmed for 2.5 years of progress since the 1070 (mid 2016). Just sticking it out with my 970 until it dies, which will hopefully be until there&amp;#x27;s something new worth upgrading to.&lt;p&gt;Maybe AMD has something more impressive up their sleeves in the mainstream price range.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Nvidia Announces GeForce RTX 2060</title><url>https://www.anandtech.com/show/13796/nvidia-announces-geforce-rtx-2060-349-dollars-january-15th</url></story>

When I can&amp;#x27;t get a consistent 1080p@30FPS (though I prefer 1080p@60FPS) then I will consider upgrading.  Right now I&amp;#x27;m CPU bound, not GPU bound, in any title where I get sub-60FPS.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wlesieutre</author><text>Have to wait for benchmarks to say anything definitive, but from the specs table it looks like performance is in the ballpark of the 1070.
