NVIDIA: comes a 12GB

The GeForce 20 collection is a household of graphics processing systems established by Nvidia. Working as the follower to the GeForce 10 series, the line began delivering on September 20, 2018, as well as after a number of editions, on July 2, 2019, the GeForce RTX Super line of cards was announced.The 20 collection noted the intro of Nvidia s Turing microarchitecture, as well as the initial generation of RTX cards, the very first in the market to execute realtime hardware ray tracing in a consumer product. In a separation from Nvidia s usual technique, the 20 collection doesn t have an entrance degree range, leaving it to the 16 series to cover this segment of the market.These cards are prospered by the GeForce 30 series, powered by the Ampere microarchitecture.

Old card with more RAM as emergency solution?

Because of the graphics card crisis, NVIDIA will bring a revised version of the GeForce RTX 2060 to market as well as my MMO reports. The RTX 2060 is basically the only model that comes from the 2000 series and is still produced - about 20 variants are currently listed in German shops.

Why is that? Since autumn 2020, the graphics card market suffers from a huge discrepancy between offer and re-found. Through problems when saving production capacities, AMD and NVIDIA can not produce any number of Gamer GPUs as desired. Demand, in turn, comes from Gamern, but also by miners who also use graphics cards in addition to specialized hardware, as their computing power is well suited for calculating certain crypto currencies to justify horrendous prizes.

Many graphics cards are affected by the miner demand and therefore more expensive than many another graphics card, which is stronger for games. Although it has meanwhile it has become slightly easier to get a graphics card of the NVIDIA RTX 3000er or AMD 6000 series. But prices are still high, and especially in the beginner area - we use the goose feet because of the prices - it looks very gloomy. An Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super costs, for example, unbelievable 470 euros and is thus more expensive than the faster RTX 2060. Therefore, the already completely outdated Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 is still produced.

The rumors to a new version say that the RTX 2060 is to be offered as a version with 12 instead of only 6 gigabyte graphics RAM. It should serve the users to whom a GeForce RTX 3060 is too expensive, but those with only 6GB of RAM would have sufficient if the graphics card is still sufficient for full HD gaming. Whether such a RTX 2060 with 12GB but really makes sense, must first show, if it comes to the market.

Currently it looks like this: The normal RTX 2060 with 6GB is available from 460 euros, which is 20 to 25 percent faster RTX 3060 from 580 euros, and the again a little faster AMD RX 6600 XT from 600 euros. To demand much more than the 460 euros for a normal RTX 2060, so it would not be realistic right now. NVIDIA should ensure that the 12GB version is not more expensive than the 6GB variant. Of course you never know how the prices are developing:

Not even two weeks ago, see our buying advice of 4 September, the AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT cost only 510 euros, so that one would have someone who had taken nearly 40 percent slower RTX 2060 despite knowledge of this fact for 450 euros A psychiatrist would have had to refer. Here you can see how fast the market can change up to date.
