[SOLVED] GPU for Photo Editing PC

[Lio_Y]

Hi Everyone,

I'm building a photo editing PC and I was thinking to get the Zotac GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB GAMING Video Card.
However, I've been told that I should definitely get the EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB XC GAMING Video Card instead.

This card is ~$200 more...and I was wondering-for my needs (photo editing PC for lightroom and photoshop) - will I see the differences between these two cards?

Thank you!

What is your cpu? If your cpu already has an Igpu, then the answer is even simpler.

I've worked in Photoshop and Lightroom using no dGPU.....No issues.

For the majority of users, even a RTX2060 would be great plenty.

Ok. Yeah, that one doesn't have an Igpu.
Just get the 2060. A 2070 Super won't be worth it. Save your money.
