Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Review: Ray Tracing For The Masses?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 січ 2019
- How fast is Nvidia's cut-price ray tracing GPU, the RTX 2060? Can it match or beat GTX 1070 Ti or even GTX 1080? And if the hardware has been downgraded for mainstream budgets, are the ray tracing features actually useful - in short, how well does it run Battlefield 5 RTX? In this detailed review, you'll get all the benches you'll need, you'll see Turing VRS technology analysed - and yes, you'll get to see BF5 running with RT enabled on the new hardware.

they're keeping the same price for the older cards and demanding more money for new cards . this is not how it should be the old cards should drop the price and keep the same price for every new card generation . it's simply a scam that people are not aware of.
Hope Amd gives us an option, to force nVidia to lower the prices.
Only if you just pay attention to the naming scheme. If you go by that alone, then yeah, each tier has gotten a massive price bump. But if you go by price-to-performance, this generation is largely the same as the last. 1080 performance(2070) costs roughly the same as before, 1080 Ti performance(2080) costs roughly the same as before, etc. The 2060 is the first of the RTX line to actually bring the performance of a last gen tier down a price bracket, allowing you to get 1070 Ti performance for $100 less than the 1070 Ti's asking price.
The 2080 Ti arguably does that too by bringing Titan V gaming performance down from $3000 to $1000, but I don't count that for obvious reasons.
Please stop crying..
Exactly just buy a used 1080ti or 56
@@C_Neutral
The price to performance should not be the same as Pascal which released almost 3 years ago
I like how the pc master race make fun of consoles for their performance yet can't justify shelling out $350 which is cheaper than high end consoles to acquire graphics way beyond anything those consoles can produce.
These few people don't speak for everybody, surprise, a console slave says shit.
It is hilarious
Spot on observation. There was one comment that contrasted nvidia's pricing with stagnant wages. It's like we're talking about college tuition here...
But there choice
Happy new year rich! how's that voice though? got a cold or did you just go all out on that DF new years party? :)

Well priced? it's mid range $350+ bullshit. We have had this performance for the past two years with more vram in the 1070.
It ain't bad... It's still a 1070ti/1080 (A tad faster or slower) Also did you expect 200$?
I expected 320$.
It's quite ok..but true. DEVs need more time with this in a year or so It will probably be pretty good.
But a year or two is to much.. Even if it's the standard time to see if new tech will succeed or fail. Talking about ray tracing.
It beats 1070 in benchmarks specially productivity
And smokes 580
I don’t agree with newer better product should cost lot more, when they meant to be sell in the same ball park, I understand if they will cost 10-20 dollars more but this is not make sense, it should be replace of technology not throw premium product in the lower name line, if 2050ti and 2050 will cost 80-100 more this is no longer funny
@@joramasama8777 People who don't understand production costs and pricing should keep their thoughts to themselves.
@@joramasama8777 I bet no 2050ti this gen. But you get new tech that might become the future, so take it like this, you get better performance (BTW ON THE FIRST FEW DRIVERS WILL IMPROVE).

Simply ain't bad for 350. And this is release price keep in mind.
Got this card for 250 a week ago and I absolutely love it, seriously underrated.
where did you get it?
Got mine for 280 but the ASUS TUF OC one lol. Seriously happy with it at 1080 or 1440

I wouldn't say people were wrong Richard. At $349 this is an X70 (Low High-end) class GPU, not a GTX 1060 (Mainstream) replacement. In that regard I'd argue there still ISN'T a Mainstream RTX (Raytracing) card.
Maybe the price will drop when AMD finally gets their shit together with GPU's. Nvidia should have an 1160 though, same performance with rasterization as 2060 but $250.
Performance wise it does not. We're comparing it to 2 and 3 year old cards effectively. In a less than horrible market (aka current state) this would have been mocked at as a ridiculously poor offering. Price hike combined with a very small performance gain that is mostly down to nvidia's poor DX12 performance on the the previous 2 generations of product... To be plain, the performance on this card in different times would have been what you'd be getting from a 150-200$ price range xx50 type offering. This RTX is a terrible product lineup from nvidia for anyone with half a brain. Unless you've a very deep wallet in which case.. im not sure anything matters, and you sure as hell wouldnt be buying this card anyway.
In Us nvidia can sell the card for 349 dollar in other countries the final price is a lot higer ,a 349 dollar card will cost at best 390 euro in my country..
@@gourdtaste6018 you forget that this card does not have rival in their price/performance segment, at 349$ is a lot better value than the 1070 Ti and Vega 56 - 64, stop being a fanboy writing such long coment for nothing

Rich! Did we lost you in 2018 ?
Is $350 really a price for masses ?
Midrange card with a not midrange price great... The GPU & RAM price is was keeping me away of building a new PC.
Same here.
Midrange? This is a low end card, it's literally one of the cheapest cards for them to produce. Just like the 1060 is low end, the 2060 is also low end, but with a midend price tag. Prices should drop significantly though, with the amd navi cards (hopefully).
@@totty2524 Mid range price tag with last gen mid range performance. It's a massive performance leap from a 1060 to a 2060, 59% in some games. Not to mention what features like CAS and DLSS brings to the table.
Prices won't drop. not by much atleast. These cards cost a fuck ton to produce with the 12nm process since the chip is so massive. Next Nvidia gen will probably go back to last generation MSRP since they'll probably move to 7nm.
@@hurrdurrimaburr Sure, it performs a lot better, but it doesn't mean it's not low end. The "60" on the nomenclature says it all -- it's a cheap card to make, it shouldn't be bought at midrange price. Where did you read that 12nm is so much more expensive to produce than the 14nm and 16nm processes of pascal? How do you know the difference in price is big enough to justify such a massive raise in prices?
@@totty2524 Cheaper than a 2070 or 2080, yes. But it's alot more costly to make than the previous generation.
And how do you not realise that such a massive die is more expensive to produce? The 1060 has a 200 mm² die. The 2060 has a 445mm2. They're making the same profit margins on these cards as the previous gen, because they cost more to produce.
The 2080 has a marginally larger die than the 1080ti which shares die size with the Titan X, landing at the same price. The 2080ti has the largest die of them all at a whopping 754 mm², it's massive.
The 7nm die shrink will bring production costs down.
Wichards gestures are the BEST, like right at the beginning 0:02
Great video buddy, very informative keep them coming

Ray Tracing For The Masses?
not at 350-400 bucks
TheCooperman666 I would buy it at 350dollars in an instant. Sadly here in europe you still dont get a 1070 for that kind money. It will probably be 400€ here.
I thought RTX 2080 Ti's $1000+ price tag was too expensive for the masses. Now a $350 Raytraced enabled card is also too expensive? That's cheaper than an Xbox One X. How cheap are you?
@@link2dpast xbox is a complete package, whereas the 2060 is just one component
@@bingobongo1615 I mean is 50 bucks that big of a deal? In the grand scheme of things no?
@@teehundeart
You only build your PC from scratch once. Unless you are overhauling your PC, most subsequent upgrades are one component at a time. CPU and RAM requirements don't change as sporadically as GPU requirements. In the long run (because gaming is a long-term hobby), you end up paying less for performance that outclasses consoles because, after the initial investment, upgrading is mostly one component at a time. It's fair to assume that most people watching this are not looking to overhaul their rig.
TL;DR: Upgrading to a more powerful console ALWAYS requires a complete system overhaul. Upgrading to a more powerful PC does not. It's apples to oranges.
Nvidia has the audacity to charge more for these cards yet keep old ones at same price which is ridiculous. I was thinking of upgrading from a 980 but I might just wait for AMD to bring out the 680 or vega/whatever comes next, can't support Nvidia anymore.
AMD still charging $500+ for Vega cards, they aren't any better aside from the low range cards they offer.
AMD released RX 590 at $280. They won't release any new gtx 1080 equivalent cards under $280. They will also keep the price at least $350
holdingholder their best card Vega 64 goes for 400 routinely with games
NVidia's fault?
Why do you guys keep blaming NVidia when it's market forces that determine price. Companies like EVGA who sell directly or resellers like Amazon, Newegg etc don't give the slightest CRAP about what NVidia thinks the price should be... supply and demand. Card manufacturers buy the GPU's in bulk from NVidia (though they are made by a fab), make cards, then charge what they think gives the best profit margin... it's not complicated guys.. I bet even NVidia's prices end up adjusting to market forces and NOT the other way around.
Welcome to realm of enthusiasts.
Excellent analysis as usual. Still lots of exciting announcements to come from CES 2019!
Another awesome in-depth analysis from the experts. Thank you and keep up the great work.
350$ is NOT!!! a gpu for the masses, at least not in over 90% of the places in the world.

I'm wondering if the RTX perform better in VR when compared to the GTX 1XXX.
I would love to see Digital Foundry level of review for VR too.
Beautifully Covered the 2060 in the video, nicely done guys @DF
Hey DF! Could you please re-review the 2060, a year later? See what's changed and what's up with DLSS 2.0? Does that change things? Have nVidia drivers matured?
not enough VRAM... super a bit better but with 30 series are here... well i won't recommend 3060 either since the damn vram for next gen are above 8GB... so in other word.. it best for laptop... not for PC...

I believe the presentation would be clearer if you moved the I7 8700K / 3400MHZ DDR4 text to the left along other stuff that doesn't change along the test runs. Otherwise great content as always. Wish you the best.
Yes! Finally! More hardware reviews! Hey whatever happened to your Jaguar vs Ryzen core test you promised? I was really looking forward to it. Take an Athlon 5150 and compare it to a Ryzen 3 Quad Core at clock for clock and 1.6GHZ vs 3.0GHZ with a Vega 64 to see what we might expect for the next consoles please!!!
Money for RTX: ON (OFF)
well rtx3070 go for 500 and that thing still cheap.. if you get super one... but VRAM too small so it better for laptop..
$350 DOLLARS???
DeadPhoenix86 Geforce 1060 6GB was on par with 980 and was only $240. Times move on this should be priced at mid range prices.
@@wizzgamer The problem is this isn't a "mid range" card. It's basically still pretty high end. Anyone that owns one will be pushing 144+ fps on many games which is most definitely a high end market. Still consider the 970 and 1060 mid range cards at this point

I love this soundtrack in the background.
I love your detailed reviews on hardware. DF goes above and beyond, once again.
So basically it's faster, but only in the very few games that actually support DLSS. Seems like it's basically 1070ti performance at 1070ti pricing.

Just because its faster doesnt mean it should cost more. It should be faster and cost the same as last gen 1060.
I'm sort of wonder on a more in depth level how Wolf 2's adaptive shading stacks up against Shadow Warrior 2's Multi Res Shading from a couple of years ago.
Brilliant work guys, thanks.
"For the masses"
Lol yea no...350$ is not exactly "for the masses".
Well looking at the market no wonder NVIDIA is charging that much. Waiting for AMD (NAVI) or who knows, Intel may come up with a competitive product.
Vaibhav Shah $350 is still affordable for most people, considering that consoles tend to be around the same price when they first launch. Not everyone works at McDonald’s, you ain’t gonna get a $200 card capable of 1080p 60 FPS minimum on new games maxed out sorry to break it to you.
ray tracing snake oil, like 99% of people wouldnt know s*** if its real or not, but they notice the price though
@@gamerxt333 Still a good price even if you don't ray trace.
Basically a 1070ti..
And ray tracing is a nice bonus
Considering the performance of this gpu, 350 dollar is mainstream for the average enthusiast (in the 1st world) but not for the average gamer.
aahh.. i remember the days when "Mid-Range" gpu is just 200$
as always, I liked and subscribed.
I haven't really heard anyone discuss whether you can turn certain other graphical features off/down that won't interfere with the RTX features if you turn them up to save on some frame rates and still have the game look beautiful. Unfortunately I don't have the game so I can't test it on my two cards.
This is the good RTX card, reasonable price and has a valuable dvi port.
It looks like the smaller die gives you more performance to die space ratio as well.
A better buy than the 1070ti assuming retailers dont over stray from the RRP.
Lol, GPU for the masses..350$ wtf.. Next line of NVIDIA GPUs: equivalent of a 2060 -600$ a GPU for the masses.
Happy new yeeeear to you too! 👀
I just bought a 2070, haven't even opened the box. I am really contemplating taking it back for a 2060. I have expendable income, but $350 for the 2060 is tempting when I just paid $600 for the 2070. What should I do?
but can it ray trace richard's untracable hands
Vote with your wallet or Nvidia will never change.

You do realize a 2060 is already a better deal than the Vega?
rollandoTech this card is gonna sell enmass.
@@Ztreak thats the problem, people dont care if nvidia sold them a bowl of shit with their badge on it, they will buy. $100 more expensive than 1060's MSRP at launch..nvidia is hoping people have short term memory loss (and sadly appears people really do) and saying 1070 performance = 1070 $$$. never mind every other generation prices have been very steady and stable or even reduced between generations before.. 2060 should cost 1060 prices.. same with every other generation before it..
Yeah, I bought "this" performance level 2,5 years ago with used GTX 980 TI (with waterblock included) which reach close to stock 1080 speeds when oc'd, with 400 euros, so if you subtract the block price from it... Seeing that my card still holds mid to high range slot in performance after 3,5 years from release, It's kinda sad. I didn't think I would hold a used card for 3-4 years at this rate.
I COULD buy even RTX 2080 TI, but just can't see the value in whole generation, like at all. 10xx generation already felt like a rip off in this sense.

The masses are supposed to pay 350 for a low end card?
@Subi_fan 2060 is tu106. Low end. Just like the 1060 was gp106.
The 104 is midrange(1080, 2080) and the 102 is high end (1080ti and above 2080ti and above)
Low end? This card beats AMD's best cards that they still charge over$500 for.
@@holdingholder why are you bringing up AMD? We're looking specifically at nvidia's product stack codenames.

60-70s is mid end tho. Targeting high settings 1080p-1440p 60+fps. 50s is low end ~low medium 1080p ~60fps.
@Subi_fan nope. I'm looking at it from a product stack prospective. The 2060 is the low end of Turing.
The 1080ti is the high end of pascal.
Enthusias and entry level is made up bullshit by nvidia to further segment the product stack, and hide the fact that that they began selling mid range cards at high end prices. And now they're selling low end cards at mid range prices.
Can't wait to see how much of a difference DLSS makes on RTX 2060, as it's just been enabled by Nvidia for BF5, with the driver launched today. They also added Gsync support on all Freesync displays.
I've been out of the specs space for a while. How much of an upgrade would this be over an overclocked 980ti?

Good documented and factual video as always guys. 2060 seems like an awesome card.

Ah yes, the full fat review from my boi Wichard.
Wolfenstein's optimization on all platforms is amazing. If only it's publisher used that engine rather than creation engine.
The PC performance is also thanks to Vulkan and it supports VRS and RPM. Very impressive effort from a PC development point of view. Ubisoft take note!
@@DJ_Dopamine those games while not well optimized, are seriously bogged down by denuvo.
Hey guys,
Ray-Tracing makes sense in games where you can also achieve a good FPS and high resolution. Just because BFV struggles in early days doesn't mean there won't be games where it makes sense. For example, consider a DUNGEON environment with crystals, reflections, lights and smoke etc where you can do things with LIGHT that you can't manage with the normal rasterization hacks... in a 2.5D game like Diablo 3 for example how high is the FPS vs what you really need for smooth game play on a medium tier graphics card? You can easily do 2560x1440 or even 4K likely with RTRT while maintaining at least 60FPS.... or consider less demanding 3D games where you maybe focus on just reflections or whatever... there's a lot of POTENTIAL here and in the future we'll have more optimization to this process as well as more powerful cards.. got to start somewhere (not that I want to be an early adopter).
True.
looks like the better compression and higher mem speeds are working in the 2060's favor on newer games where larger textures and more compute work are being done
LOL at the price...
What do you mean?
@@leruty some people paid less than 200 buck for GPU...
No mention of the meager 6GB of memory?
1. As you see there is not much difference
2. RTX cards use nearly 2x faster memory (GDDR6)

I I have a 1070 founders edition should I just hold off for a better card? Is this even a step up besides the ability to use RT?
Do you think the extra money for the 2070 is worth it for the extra 2GB of memory (as well as the extra cores etc)? Looking at the MSI Gaming Z RTX 2060 and 2070.
No Nvidia I won't be paying 350 for your FOURTH tier card which should actually be 199.

Nvidia ray tracing has potential but it needs to be perfected. You can tell it was rushed maybe because of amd's new line up coming..

Don't worry, it still chokes in 4K with highest texture size.
Do you guys read comments? If you do, thank you for your work :D
I dont think they do. Otherwise they would all need chemotherapy by now.
@@Sheepy007 true that lmao. CONSOLE WARS !
No we don't bother. Sorry 🤗
@@DJ_Dopamine Bullocks !
Gonna wait for the RTX 3000-series, since this has no HDMI 2.1 support for VRR. I need it for my new 2019 OLED HDMI 2.1 TV, so i can play games with 120hz and VRR (variable refresh rate, same as gsync) with low input lag!
And people were throwing a fit over the rumored PS5 ray tracing feature.
I haven't seen this rumour. I must Google this lol.
Every gpu can ray trace. Nvidia is masters of deception. Yes the RTX cards have special hardware that make raytracing faster, but how has movies and so on Ray traced in the past? Any gpu can do it, and I'm sure AMD Navi, which ps5 will use, will probably have some specialized hardware for it
@@elliottblair31 its not a rumor the people that make GT Sport had a conference showing off real time raytracing on GT Sport
@@wile123456 you say it's deception and then immediately admit there's special hardware on the card. That is the sole reason it's feasible. Sure any card can perform the ray tracing maths, but you'd be left with a terribly out of date looking game. What's the point of a PS2 quality game in 2019 just because it has nice reflections? People were sceptical of the ps5 rumours because it was assumed ray tracing was still years away, if not decades. But now it's here and it's only these new Nvidia cards that made that a reality.
Noobs
I have to go to Google to find out how much the card is in £ because the English man, sitting in England who works for a UK based website that says it's a European website gave the price in dollars.
£329
oh booohooo
i have to do that to every single video ever.
majority of their viewers are American probably
@J Dxvx you can apply that to every year for the past 10 years. *facepalm*
You forget that this price was revealed at a US-based conference, CES takes place in Las Vegas.
What about the performance of high settings instead of ultra and medium ray tracing at 1080p and 1440p and dlss when it gets patched pls test that or someone tell me the performance pls.
Thanks - have a sub! :D
So a 1070ti for more? Wow! Going amd this year
Yes, ray tracing for the masses! *at 12 fps
C'mon now, the rtx 2060 is perfect for ray tracing ..at 720p. Sad.
Luke Should’ve watched the video before commenting.
@@JamesSmith-sw3nk I have a Ryzen 7 1700 16gb ddr4 ram and rx580 and I play at 720p cuz I don't have a 1080p monitor.
@@sovietrussia3632 oof
but that reflection that you wouldnt know is ray traced unless someone said it, is totally worth that 12fps though
Performance looks good but this is best case scenario. I'm interested how this will look with real life system - Ryzen 5 2600 paired with RTX 2060. DLLS is still future song so I will wait for AMD offer and than decide should I upgrade for 2k/60 ultra or stay with my RX570 4GB for 1080p high.
finally someone who reads and average and explains that averages aren't end all be all. Thank you so much.
People on the internet can't seem to grasp that concept.
I highly doubt bannerlord will use either DXR, DLSS or VRS. Pass.
Of course it won't use these, because it will never come out.
Content sponsored by Nvidia. 😁
@phillip martin The Rx 3080 will have Rtx 2080 performance for 250$. So the 2060 is overpriced.
@phillip martin What a mindless spanner I run a 1080ti. I would prefer full disclosure from reviewers on freebees or payments to clarify any possibility there is bias. Tit.
@phillip martin If amd doesn't want to be forced to leave the gpu market by the next year, then there is no reason not to bring a Vega 64 like gpu for the midrange price. Why shouldn't they do exactly what they 2 years ago with the Rx 480 and 470?
@phillip martin You're still missing the point. Reviewers should always disclosure an interest just like in funded research or orher investigations. This has precisely zero to do with this manufacturer (Nvidia) or any others that are so called competitors. Its good journalistic practice.
@phillip martin Transparency, honesty and ethics. A simple disclosure is all that is needed to show that the subject item was provided for free and the reviewer has gained something.
I'm not a hardcore follower of your video content. I like a lot of the stuff you have on offer, but since I don't own any modern consoles and those that I have (Xbox360, Vita, 3DS) hardly ever get used, so the whole "console x vs x+ vs y" is of no use to me. But here, I find the constant background music very distracting and annoying. You don't reallly need this for anything in my opinion. :) Otherwise, fantastic video and great content!
14:47 Have you only ever seen “outlier” written down?
woow i never expected this much hatred towards this card. Its 1070ti/1080 performance, if pricing is correct in the UK at £329-£350 thats great value, since 1080 cards are slowly dwindling, used 1080's go for around £300-£350 anyway. 1080ti's have gone up in value for some reason, since you may aswell buy a NEW 2080 with the new features.
Its great that the 2060 falls around 1070ti/1080 performance.
what do you want? dumb Peasants want everything for free.
I also sure that most of the replays here are from teenagers, so "mommy" wont be buying them a new GPU
Linus made a perfect video on this. There's no point in this card. 6gb max, 2 versions gddr5x and gddr6 so if you happen to get a 5x you're screwed. This is not a serious 4k card and even then using rtx at 4k which its locked to, has terrible performance. Pointless card
As usual, stellar review DF !, when reviewing GPU products you were the best out there. You got some perspective and comparison that no other tech reviewer out there sees. I’ll always be a fan. Wichard you are the best ! ❤️
I think the performance differences between old and new versions of games based on the same tech could be a driver optimization issue. The newer games run better on RTX Hardware because Nvidia has done driver optimizations for the newer titles first. Makes sense to me.
So I could buy a 56 or 1080 for the same price or cheaper that's faster has more vram and better thermals
Or this....
did you not watch the video even 64 couldnt out perform 2060 in 10 of 11 games.
@@12coco100 just so many trolls cus its "cool" to hate on this 20 series line
@@jdog8701 Ik if you have a 900 series these are worth imo.
"I demand 60 minimal" What bout console games then LEL
This is why I still game on consoles. I rather developers focus on fun not FPS.
@@AntonioCunningham This isn't how game development works, pc has more fps because it has more processing power it doesn't take any game developers focus. You run the same program on faster hardware, and it runs faster, that is all.
For console he demands 30 fps minimum. Weaker hardware ☺
@@KraszuPolis Then why are so many gamers advocating the next gen have a minimum of 60fps? That would weed out games I play effectively killing my hobby for a numbers game.
We've seen games lose a lot of content for "graphics" (Monster Hunter comes to mind)
@@AntonioCunningham Because people want to play smoother running games, and wanting 60fps means worse gfx, that extra frames require more power to render so there is less power for better gfx.
I currently have a 980ti for 1440p gaming, is this the card i should be looking at or something a little higher?
It depends.
If you want Ray Tracing - 2070 is good enough.
If you don't care about RT - 1080 or 1080Ti.
And if I prefer perf to ray tracing and this option is disabled 99,5% of the time, does that mean that a good chunk of the silicon is just idling about? And I payed for this piece of silicon which is consists a good part of an end product.
