Hi all, i reside in singapore and over here now the RTX2060 costs about $399 sgd (abt $292 usd) Is it worth the purchase? I own a I5-4460 wif a Asus H81M-A mobo wif 8gb corsair ram and a gtx750ti. I dont really play AAA titles but may look forward to in future. I also fear my old I5-4460 may bottleneck the RTX2060 hence i might just buy GTX1650 super.
 
Solution
absolutely not.

none of the 2xxx series are worth it at the moment, unless its on a very generous discount, and the 2060 is barely enough for some RT fancies, needless to say, this card will not age well, and even though the 2xxx series isnt plain bad, they'll likely never be seen with good eyes again. Skip the 2xxx, wait for 3060(ti).

I think you should either wait for black friday discounts, also reinforced by the fact that the 30xx series comes out by that time. Or you should wait for the same couple of months and wait for people to buy 30xx GPU and be willing to offload their 20xx used cards at bargain prices (and they would be still at a warranty I guess?).
