Good saving over local stock. Cheapest local price I could find is $100 more.

I know many people will say to wait for Ampere or RDNA 2, but if you're looking to buy now, this is a good price. 5600XT may be a good alternative also.

I've personally downgraded to this card while I could still sell my existing card for a good price (and due to not gaming as much) while waiting for Ampere.

    Eh, that could be a decent wait especially if they only launch the high end cards first. If there are games you want to play right now, I'd just go for it.

        Ye announced, as in its existence is confirmed, but when will I actually be able to get one in my hands, chances are its at least 2 months from now.

  • ChickenDinner123 on 16/08/2020 - 11:59

    This or the 5600xt for $400? For FS2020

    • combatant on 16/08/2020 - 12:09
      +1

      It's difficult to say since it's not yet released. I'm also not sure if FS2020 favours AMD or Nvidia in anyway.

      The 5600xt and RTX 2060 trade blows in a lot of games, or show clear victories in other titles, so I'd suggest they may be roughly comparable.

      • Void on 16/08/2020 - 15:38

        I believe if you get a 5600 XT with the 1750MHz core and 14Gbps memory VBIOS it's a 5700 6GB, at that point I think there is a clear winner.

        • Ryballs on 16/08/2020 - 15:44

          The 5600 XT currently on OzB can be updated to that vBIOS.

          • Void on 16/08/2020 - 15:46

            @Ryballs: If you're talking about the Challenger D, yes it can be, but don't. It's got a terrible cooler. You'd be better off with an XFX THICC II Pro for $421 at Amazon US.

        • kodoq on 16/08/2020 - 21:30

          The RTX 2060 KO or the AMD 5600 XT is the better choice in term of future proof performance? Thinking about getting one of these to replace my R9 280x. Cheers.

          • ItsMeAgro on 17/08/2020 - 09:30

            @kodoq: Happy with my upgrade from R9 280x to Nvidia 2060 Super.

            To my surprise, a few minor graphical glitches I had in games disappeared, so I guess it was the drivers or the card getting old, not the games.

      nvidia

      i was in alpha and beta and the nvidia cards perform much better than amd, same with cpu for intel vs amd

    • kensaiD on 16/08/2020 - 15:41

      The 5700XT is $600 via Amazon UK. It's a bit of a price jump but still quite undercuts the 2070 in terms of price. If that fits in your budget that is.

    • Ahbal on 16/08/2020 - 18:43

      For pure performance it would probs be better, however rtx would support dlss 2.0 (which alone is worth it for new games) + ray tracing.

      • gmail92 on 16/08/2020 - 19:49

        assuming these features are adopted widely apart from the few games that currently support it

    KO is the one with 2080 die right? or has it changed ?

    • zrmx on 16/08/2020 - 12:07

      Should still be the one with 2080 die, but it performs the same with non-2080 die for gaming while consuming more power.

      So unless if you are using it for non-gaming, it doesn't matter whether 2080 die or not.

    • buffalo bill on 16/08/2020 - 12:20

      Some 2060 KO at least initially used a variant of the TU104 chip (from 2080 non-S), possibly ones that didn't make the 2080 cut.

      Not sure if that's still the same or even if it's a lottery. Still didn't perform like a 2080 due to other build factors but some tests revealed it better than a standard 2060 for non-gaming tasks.

      Possibly an OK price in current climate. The next gen equivalent won't hit our shores until next year and 3080/70 will likely be relatively overpriced at first.

      • m0b1liz3 on 16/08/2020 - 13:10

        Really? I read 3080 September, 3070 Oct., and 3060 in November. This is potentially all speculation though. If AMD releases their cards early enough, it might speed up Nvidia's release dates this time around. Last time they effectively had no competition so they could drag out the release dates more. I have seen Oct/Nov quoted for the AMD release.

      • jasswolf on 16/08/2020 - 14:48
        +1

        NVIDIA would get shredded by everyone (including its shareholders) if it didn't have the 3060 ready to compete with next-gen consoles.

        This series likely would have been announced back in May-June if not for covid-19, so that tells you everything you need to know about card validation and availability for 2020.

        • Gmetal on 16/08/2020 - 15:29
          +1

          I agree it would look bad - but in practice are they really competition? i.e. consumers out there that would pick up a PS5 rather than a 3060?

          • jasswolf on 16/08/2020 - 16:32

            @Gmetal: USD $400-$500 for an entertainment device vs $250-$300 card that can go into a PC build as low as $300, but $450 for a similar specification list to a next-gen console.

            They're not direct substitutes, but it's going to be the gaming card of choice if you go down the PC path, as more and more people are given controller latency issues as a growing interest in shooters that aren't CoD. That it will likely outperform the consoles is a bonus.

    • kaleidoscope on 16/08/2020 - 14:43

      Don’t obsess over it… It’s a hit or a miss and the potential gain is next to nothing for everyday applications or gaming…

    • HaveANiceDay on 16/08/2020 - 12:27
      +4

      It'll be quite a big bottleneck

      To get a small bottleneck, you'd have to get a RX 570

    • gizmomelb on 16/08/2020 - 16:20

      I was using the nvidia RTX 2060 I bought last year (July 2019) with my i5-2500K system and it was handling 1080p gaming at high or ultra settings for most games with no issue.

      I kept the GPU (RTX 2060 which cost me $440 from Amazon) and SSD from my old system and upgraded my motherboard (X570 chipset - so I can upgrade the CPU to a Ryzen 3 when they are released, possibly still even a Ryzen 4 next year or beyond), changed to an AMD CPU (AMD Ryzen 2 3700x), new RAM (DDR4 CL16 3200MHz) and a new PSU (750W so I could easily expand further in the next few years to a higher multi-core CPU or a top of the range GPU when they come out) when those items were on sale on ebay for 20% discount.

      Being honest an i5-4460 is getting quite old, so you may want to upgrade (replace motherboard, RAM and CPU at the least) in a year or so anyway, depending on the games you play.

    • Jec on 16/08/2020 - 18:25

      Keep in mind that bottlenecking does depend on how much of each part a program uses. That said, I'd say you'd get a CPU bottleneck in most cases.

    • Snave on 17/08/2020 - 08:55

      I had a i5-2500K with a GTX 970. I upgraded to a Ryzen 5 3600 and with the GTX 970 I double some game frame rates with the same graphic settings. Others I could max out graphics and still increased the FPS. Before I would reduce the graphics to keep at least 60FPS.

      So unless you are planning to upgrade your CPU soon, you would not see the full advantage of this GPU

                @AussieZed: I see this type of comment a lot but no one actually provides evidence of drops in past years (not attacking you, just asking). I've looked over pages recently to find whether prices do drop or not and everyone seems to have an idea but no evidence of it actually happening..

                  +1

                  @ishaboyavirski: Problem in the last few years is that each new series release has increased in price without a major improvement in equivalent performance which leads to prior series holding their value. If rumours are close to accurate there should be a major performance improvements with 30 series, and AMD competition so hopefully price to performance will be better which will lead to lower current series. It’s hard to see how much further they can drive up RRP

                  • ishaboyavirski on 16/08/2020 - 23:46

                    @Wombatstew: That's an interesting point, I've not seen that. Thanks for the info. Have been holding out for RTX 2080 Super prices to drop around the ~$950-1000 mark and have been unsure if it (ever) will - might bite the bullet and buy the next cheapest because I'm super impatient and won't be buying the 30x series (assuming they're $1300+ and a few months off releasing the cheaper models).

                • AussieZed on 17/08/2020 - 12:31

                  @ishaboyavirski: It does happen. GTX560 dropped when the 600 came out. I bought one for $159 in 2012. Similarly, the 1060 came down when the 1160 came out.

      I have a non Super RTX 2060 and I use it to encode 1080p video with NVenc / STAXrip - it has saved me probably weeks of time CPU encoding and with the slight loss in quality vs time saved I've been extremely happy with it.

        KO editions are later released with few tweaks to compete against their direct competitors over the same range…
        So a 2060 KO would have better performance over 2060…

        I read reviews that KO cards (2069 KO and 2060 KO ultra) runs hotter and louder compared to other variants. This tipped the balance between me picking up this or a card with better cooling performance.

        Yeah, it seems the KO is about the same as a regular 2060 (for gaming at least) after looking into it a little bit. The 2060 Super seems to have about 20% better fps in the games I'm looking at.
        Tempted to go for the Galax but it's hard to find many reviews of them. I don't think the white LED will be an issue. Why do you hate it? How are the temps and noise?

    WARNING! The NEW gfx cards that are coming are going to be awesome but they will not be cheap. What does this mean about buying a used or disscounted card now? Well you can buy a nice card thats good enough for the games we have now and you can AVOID the early adopters tax that nvidia/amd try to extract. The other problem is china as thats where these are made wont have supply at RRP anounced prices anyway, so getting a 2060/5600 or better card now for $350-600 will tie you over until the supply chain returns to normal in 2021…

  • hero000 on 16/08/2020 - 18:40

      I would look up benchmarks for games that I might play and use that as a guide rather than userbenchmark.

      The RX 5600 also comes with WoW shadowlands and Godfall by AMD rewards redemption. Depending on whether you play those, may increase the difference in value between both cards.

    For anyone curious, I ordered on 15 August 2020 and the order is not yet marked as shipped.

    I contacted Amazon this morning and was told it was "in the advanced shipping phase and will be sent within the next 24-48 hours". Approx a one week turn around from order to shipping.

    So it seems Amazon UK currently has some delays actually getting things moving from the warehouse. This is contrary to what I have experienced with Amazon AU recently. I haven't ordered anything from Amazon US recently, but in the past it has been a quick turn around.

    I guess we only have COVID to blame. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
