I sort of regret getting a 1060 when I did now.
Such is life. I'm not gonna' complain, as I'm now putting my savings aside for a new rig in a couple of years, and this RTX 2060 does make the future look bright.

Yeah, no. 1070 performance for 1070 money.
nVidia simply raised the prices across the board. Anything that crosses 350 bucks stops being a mainstream card. x60 used to be the "people's card".
RTX and DLSS doesn't make sense on this level of performance either.
If the GTX1160 without all this nonesense will be 50-100 bucks cheaper, then fine. But as far as pushing the new technologies go, they should have simply released 2080Ti and leave the rest of the lineup be until it matures.

2060 will be considerably more expensive.
And I'm getting 70 FPS on a GTX 950 in 2560x1080, so I still don't see a point in upgrading.
Yeah, they want more than my GTX1070 cost nearly three years ago for similar performance. I think I'll pass.
And i think in general it's been a bit of a 'miss' for Nvidia with this new range, i was reading an article where they were downgrading their profits forecast (that has already been downgraded!). Seems lots of people look at the price and performance of these new cards vs what they have already and just shrug.
They're right, Nvidia is way too expensive, and not just on this generation.

Overall I'm glad NVidia took a risk with Ray tracing. At least they utilized their dominant market position, and tried something new. Now, prices are still insane obviously. And I'm totally skipping 20xx generation. But I think in a long run it might benefit consumers. Even AMD expressed interest in ray tracing, and with Intel discreet GPUs on the horizon we may see market heating up again in 2-4 years.
No wonder, the people agree to be milk cows but up to a point.
