ignoring raytracing, its a new gpu. it has a cost. AMD has new gpus. they have a cost. you can compare the performance of many cards, and see which ones are worth buying for certain scenarios.

Only the 2000 series gpus have raytracing right?

#

Yes

#

Rtx cards they are called

#

Ok

#

Well it actually

#

No

#

So since I don't NEED rtx, then I'll just stay with the 1660

#

Technically all cards have the ability to do ray tracing I believe just they can’t run it. Ray tracing cores somehow help in ray tracing as it takes a lot of performance down even on rtx cards

#

So basically yes only rtx cards

#

Ok

#

Cause I was looking at the difference in graphics for a few games I play that use rtx and thought it'd be cool, but not worth the extra hundred some dollars(for now)

#

I just need a new gpu and rtx is a + and a reason for me to spend money and that money I don’t have yet

dont go prebuilt @proven trout there are tons of yt videos out there in the world to help you along they way

#

it will cost you extra money

proven trout Apr 19, 2020, 12:16 AM

#

Even for a build like that? It seemed it was fairly close in cost?

velvet cradle Apr 19, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

depends, if they give you a single stick of 16gb like our bud over in build chat you have to get another stick of ram

#

in the end, you are the consumer and you make that decision, but knowing the machine you are building and how to fix it WHEN it breaks is very helpful

spare relic Apr 19, 2020, 12:19 AM

#

It's not that it costs extra, it's the decisions they make to cost them less which puts a stick in the user's butt, like cheap PSU, stupid RAM arrangement, small SSD or just a hard drive, inadequate cooler, sickly motherboard, any number of things

spice prawn Apr 19, 2020, 12:20 AM

hi guys, i have $400 / £320 and I want to buy a new graphics card, currently I have a 1050ti and my game Warzone im getting around 50fps in game all game. Now my CPU is i7-6700k (completely fine) what graphics card within my budget should I get for loads more fps, looking for 150 fps. I play all low settings in game. No shadows or motion blur enabled. I was looking at the 'Nvidia MSI GTX 1660Ti Ventus GPU 6GB' and with ultra high settings you avarage around 100fps. now if i get that and put my game all low settings do you think i would get more than 150 fps. thanks!

#

The Nvidia MSI GTX 1660Ti Ventus GPU 6GB goes for £310, the 2060 goes for the same price also, which is a better card or a card you reccomend that gets 140+ fps.

spice prawn Apr 19, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

the 2060 is in your budget

frozen pebble Apr 19, 2020, 7:27 PM

yes, 400$ / £315

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/KX66Mp/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-2060-6-gb-oc-video-card-gv-n2060oc-6gd <- something like that specifically

Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB OC Video Card

#

from a "what is smarter to get" POV, the 2060 wins

#

as for specific performance in a given game. that depends entirely on the game

#

best/easier/simplest way to answer that is by having a look on youtube for videoes that show what the performance of a given card is

frozen pebble Apr 19, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

yes i see but youtube uploads in 60fps and i dont see like a difference watching the video but im seeing thid

spice prawn Apr 19, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

not "seeing" the difference

#

its for finding someone actually playing whatever specific games you play

frozen pebble Apr 19, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

i7-6700k + 2060 (all low settings) = 130-160 fps avarage all game.
i7-6700k + 1660Ti (all low settings) = 130fps avarage all game.

#

I see the 2060 is better within preformance and more FPS.

spice prawn Apr 19, 2020, 7:34 PM

aye

hence why it would logically make more sense to choose that gpu

So real ignorant question. Besides better FPS, what exactly does the GPU provide for visuals?

dense flicker Apr 20, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

GPU can do plenty of stuff, for one, it gets an image on the display. Without some sort of graphical processor, you wouldnt be able to see anything on your screen.

#

Some GPUs like the RTX line, have built in real time ray tracing and NVENC encoders which is great for streaming

urban zenith Apr 20, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

NVENC?

dense flicker Apr 20, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

its an encoder for video. It allows you to put the task of streaming on your GPU so you dont have to eat up your CPU resources while streaming

#

(based on what people tell me)

urban zenith Apr 20, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

Okay. The reason why I ask is that I'm seeing like 90 FPS in a game, and I'm at max settings. I know getting my new GPU will improve my FPS... but can I expect anything else?

#

Since I'm already at the highest settings?

dense flicker Apr 20, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

what GPU do you currently have and what are you looking to upgrading to?

urban zenith Apr 20, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

GTX 970 and I have the 2060S coming.

dense flicker Apr 20, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

ooh that will be a nice upgrade

#

so with the 2060s, youll get more video ram (i think) and youll also get access to real time ray tracing for select games (try minecraft 😉)

#

youll also get the NVENC encoder i was talking about

urban zenith Apr 20, 2020, 5:56 PM

#

The VRAM does what?

#

Sorry, I'm still new to it all so now I'm just trying to understand it all.

#

I see improved specs obviously. Just doesn't mean I know what they do!

cinder holly Apr 20, 2020, 6:01 PM

#

VRAM. Stands for "Video Random Access Memory" and is pronounced "V-RAM." System RAM is great for loading and running programs, but when you need graphics power, VRAM is where it's at. This is the memory used to store image data that the computer displays; it acts as a buffer between the CPU and the video card.

#

less stuttering basically

urban zenith Apr 20, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

Okay.

#

What impacts the quality of the graphics vs the number of frames per sec?

spice prawn Apr 20, 2020, 6:06 PM

#

keep in mind, massive amounts of VRAM is not a direct link to more performance

cinder holly Apr 20, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

@urban zenith are you asking what gives more fps vs what gives a better picture, because for the most part, they are linked

urban zenith Apr 20, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

Better picture, is what I was aiming to clarify.

cinder holly Apr 20, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

better picture would be a more powerful gpu, so more cuda cores

#

but to render a picture, is not the most challenging thing

#

the 2060s you ordered should do a fine job

Haha okay.

Both of those mention loud coil whine

spice prawn Apr 20, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

aside from regular customers being ... well .. customers

#

"issue with noise" and "coil whine" are two very different things in the context of GPU's :)

proven trout Apr 20, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

Oh what’s the difference?

spice prawn Apr 20, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

the first is generally related to the fans performance

#

the other is related to the power system on the gpu

proven trout Apr 20, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

So is the coil whine something I’m going to have issues with? I’ve read in a lot of reviews it’s extremely loud and unbearable

spice prawn Apr 20, 2020, 6:59 PM

if you get it, you do a RMA

simple as that

Do you recommend a certain brand?

What about the GTX 1660 Super

rare moat Apr 20, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

so im looking at getting either the 2060 Super or 2070 Super... based on price alone its the 2070 Super a better investment for price to performance or am i just spending the extra money for a fancier card and more speed.

Graphics Card question related to comparing a Nvidia 930MX for engineering cad laptop vs GTX 1650 vs GTX 1060 vs GTX2060. I understand the gaming portion of the GTX video cards. Looking more on the cad type software for running the Autodesk software suite. The Nvidia 930MX is a minimum requirement from an engineering school.

mystic shadow Apr 20, 2020, 11:39 PM

@rare moat So rtx 2070s is a good investment. but If you dont care about ray tracing and only power you should get the rx 5700 xt instead. beware of driver issues though

Ray tracing isn't the premiere feature of going with nvidia tho

Based on what ive seen of late... The "meta" of pc building is AMD CPU / Nvidia GPU / Corsair just about everything else

ember imp Apr 21, 2020, 4:52 AM

From what I’ve seen the 5600 is good. Idk if it still has driver issues or if they were fixed like the 5700xt drivers were

speaking of a 6700k, I assume it'll bottleneck a 2080 super?

I don't really have the money to upgrade atm, but I would probably get a new board and CPU next, might go for 3rd gen ryzen

Oh ok thanks naed

Is 1920 cuda cores + 1710mhz boost clock good for a low budget dual fan 2060 which is oc already as it comes

it doesnt really matter all that much

But I could be wrong

He may just need a thermal paste change

wicked hound Apr 21, 2020, 8:01 PM

Bad ambient temp, bad case airflow, bad thermal paste, bad cooler contact, dead fans, software error causing temps to report higher then they are, etc... Still lots of variables that it could be

I was about to buy the one you linked me but they just went out of stock 'https://www.box.co.uk/GV-N2060WF2OC-6GD-Gigabyte-GeForce-RTX-2060-WINDFORCE-OC-6_2471812.html' now, there is the same one but it has V2 in it, is there any difference in preformance, here is the link. https://www.box.co.uk/Gigabyte-GeForce-RTX-2060-OC-6G-V2-Turin_2707923.html

#

I see in the v2 theres 25mhz less boost clock speed, will that affect fps/preformance as i want as much fps/preformance possible.

#

And the ventus XC oc is 1710mhz

#

is it the lower the boost clock mhz the lower preformance?

Just take out my existing gpu and swap it for my new one plug in pin connectors and boot up and install drivers right?

I'd remove drivers particularly if you are going from AMD to nvidia or vice versa.

It might lead to issues if you don't remove them I guess

#

Well, I think it should feel that way

median rampart Apr 22, 2020, 5:08 AM

I'd recommend downloading but not installing the new driver before you swap, just to minimize the time you potentially have to suffer with low screen resolutions or other indignities of not having the right driver installed.

frozen pebble Apr 22, 2020, 5:08 AM

#

True

median rampart Apr 22, 2020, 5:11 AM

Trying to get drivers downloaded when your screen resolution's been unexpectedly downgraded to 800x600 is doable, but not a pleasant experience.

So I have a 2080s currently, and a 1660s collecting dust at the moment. I had a thought and wanted to see how realistic it was. I stream games on occasion, and when I stream, I do a facecam of sorts using facerig. Would it be realistic to offload the face rig rendering to the 1660 while keeping my primary application up to my 2080 super?

Im considering buying a 5700 xt over a previous rtx 2070, ive heard that the 5700 is good, but has issues with cooling and drivers. any advice?

brisk flame Apr 22, 2020, 3:21 PM

#

5700 xt is better than the 2070, cooling varies by card, but its only an issue for like one or two of them. Driver issues have been mostly resolved

#

basically, avoid the MSI Evoke and the THICC II 5700XT variants, and cooling is adequate

royal copper Apr 22, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

most of the really bad issues have been fixed but amd will be amd, they can still be a bit buggy

#

New drivers definitely a lot better than the old ones tho

Is it worth it to go for a build right now or wait for new cards to come out? I've had people telling me to hold off on building a new pc because of price drops when the new cards come out but that's allegedly in 6 months

rare moat Apr 22, 2020, 11:50 PM

the rumors were June this year for Nvidia but with C-19 that date is obviously pushed back

Im back

#

So you guys recommend the 1660ti XC ultra card?

pale talon Apr 23, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

@thorn kestrel what's the price

thorn kestrel Apr 23, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

Of the card or the budget?

pale talon Apr 23, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

card

#

If you have a strong reason to stick to Nvidia's ecosystem, the 1660 Super is usually much cheaper for very little performance loss

#

so don't get any 1660tis that are more than maybe $240-250

#

If you don't have a reason to stick to Nvidia, look at the 5600xt, which MSRPs around the same as 1660 tis

@lone pond get a 1660s

not much performance difference, and with a brand new 1660S you'd be getting warranty, etc.

plus it's newer, so better support, etc.

hey guys, i have a question about the rx 5700xt. Do any of yall know if the driver issues have been fixed? I have seen that amd released an update for the drivers and that it fixed most of the problems, But i don't want to buy the card if it's going to be buggy.

#

I am mostly talking about the black screen problem, but i don't want to buy the card if it crashes often or any other weird stuff

urban stream Apr 23, 2020, 7:33 AM

#

I have no idea to the answer to your question, all I know is that with the problems I've read about with AMD's graphic drivers. Even if they came out with a bomb update for it, i still wouldn't trust it. I would just rather put my money into a Nvidia graphics card. At least there you will know you are going to get your moneys worth out of it. That is unless you get a DOA card, then that's just bad luck in my opinion.

spare relic Apr 23, 2020, 7:49 AM

DOA hardware is supposed to be returned 👀

urban stream Apr 23, 2020, 7:57 AM

I know nothing of video cards but is an AMD vega 64 worth getting over say a 5700 when I'm not relaly gaming much. just some COD MW. the computer is a multiscreen trade station
@visual scroll Anyone have any input on this? 4 screen trade desk and i want to play COD MW. Dont need anything drastic. I figured a power color 5700 (though its sold out now) or the power color red devil? Again. I think about $300 price level max is all i'd need but any input from a guru is appreciated

#

oh also its all stuff from before 2015 when i built it. FX 4350, 16gb ram, right now running an R7 260x video card and i think only two of my screens have display ports bu ti can always get dongles to convert dvi to dp

maiden sun Apr 23, 2020, 6:04 PM

@inland heath where do you live, for those cards to be the same price?

@pale talon New Zealand

pale talon Apr 23, 2020, 10:51 PM

Oof.

#

The 5700 XT is much cheaper in these states

#

But up to 1/3

inland heath Apr 23, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

Yeah I know

pale talon Apr 23, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

Well

#

I guess the 2070 super is the objectively better buy over there

inland heath Apr 23, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

I was leaning towards the 2070 super

pale talon Apr 23, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

If they're the same price

#

Absolutely get the 2070 super

inland heath Apr 23, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

I’m going to wait for a sale anyway. You never know what might happen in between then

pale talon Apr 23, 2020, 10:54 PM

#

Well

#

Okay

#

It's just that the 5700 XT relies on a massive price disparity to compete

#

And loses all of its appeal without that

#

It's about 5-10% slower, not great for streamers, lacks a lot of neat features for some workstation tasks, etc.

#

Not to mention RTX, DLSS, and more stuff Nvidia will inevitably release

inland heath Apr 23, 2020, 10:56 PM

Thanks for the help. This build will be for workstation as well as gaming

flat urchin Apr 24, 2020, 2:24 AM

#

That I know of, most GPUs require their brand's proprietary lighting software to change the RGB, so you'll probably need to run multiple RGB applications and try to match everything unless your GPU and mobo are the same brand.

@granite juniper there are perfectly valid choices for the 2060's at the 300 pricepoint

#

@granite juniper sometimes there is 330-340 models

As the price of 1650 super and 1660 dip into 570/580 territory, thoughts on which is better performer/$ ?

bitter jungle Apr 25, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

I personally am a big fan and think the 1650 super is great value for the money, but it is mid-range so won’t give you the best frames ever

tawny jackal Apr 25, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

thanks @bitter jungle I just noticed Newegg has a 1060 3 GB on sale, after $40 instant and $20 MIR only $130 (older card but great budget performer at $30 less than 1650 super...)

bitter jungle Apr 25, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

Doesnt 1060 3gb perform similar to RX 570?

#

I never liked the 1060 but you do you man. Congrats

spice prawn Apr 25, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

the 3gb cards are imo, not a good investment, unless you really really really cannot afford something better

@tawny jackal the reason for it is this: just about everything is starting to use hardware acceleration, which means vram memory can make your life a fair deal easier

tawny jackal Apr 25, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

@spice prawn Indeed, thanks I think I'll stick to a 4GB minimum

spice prawn Apr 25, 2020, 6:05 PM

you are very welcome :)

I have a 1060 in my nearly 4 year old laptop. It was great for its time, but is starting to show its age.

hey guys having issues with my new 5600 xt installed yesterday. i cant even play valorant at medium settings. because bad frame drops in certain areas. ive uninstalled nvidia drivers from old card and have amd drivers. 5600xt shows up in device manager as well as it is being used. drivers show its being used as well

#

everything almost looks too sharp now. all my games. almost like a little grainy

Hello everyone, noob here. I'm putting together my first build and am going to be running dual GPUs. I purchased (2) GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 Supers and wanted to know which NVLink I need to connect them? Specifically if I need 4-slot spacing or 3?

#

@lone temple What workload are you doing? 99% of games dont utilize multi GPU much for it to be worth it and most workstations tasks dont use SLI, just standard multi GPU if it's supported

rigid crag Apr 26, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

That might of been something important to know before you purchased tho because certain cards will not allow enough airflow in-between them unless they go on water.

5600 xt or 2060?

@wicked hound tysm for the reply. I'm actually building this rig for 3D rendering purposes, using Cinema 4D + Octane Render, so I think the two GPUs will be beneficial

#

@wicked hound but I guess what youre saying is that C4D doesnt need SLI?

wicked hound Apr 26, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

I havent checked those programs specifically, but make sure that it's multi GPU/SLI

lone temple Apr 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

ok will do!

wicked hound Apr 26, 2020, 6:56 PM

#

If multi GPU, then NVLINK is a nice to have. You should be able to still get it and in Nvidia control panel just enable/disable it I think

lone temple Apr 26, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

@wicked hound yea they both support multi GPU

#

I guess I jut dont know what bridge to buy

wicked hound Apr 26, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

Well you'd want to find out if it's 3 or 4 length before buying. Looking at mobo and GPUs for decent spacing for airflow

lone temple Apr 26, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

@wicked hound yep will do, cards still havent arrived so i guess i'll wait till im holding them to decide on a bridge. thanks for your help!

There are a few nvlink designs from MSI, EVGA, Nvidia, etc. Here is Nvidia's 3/4 long ones
