I'm building my first PC, and at first I was planning to get an RX 5700XT. But then I saw the Minecraft RTX Beta, and now I really want something that supports ray tracing. Within my budget, my only real option is an RTX 2060 Super, which I understand performs a little worse than the RX 5700XT. But it supports ray tracing, and I can live with that tradeoff.
But the more I read about it, the less sure I am that it's even going to be enjoyable to play Minecraft RTX with this card. I'm going with a 1440p monitor, and according to Tomshardware's test, that kind of resolution seems unplayable with a 2060 Super.
So what do you think? Should I go back to the better 5700XT (and even save myself ~10 USD), or is there a foreseeable future where ray tracing is worth it with a 2060 Super? I'd really appreciate some thoughts or even personal experiences.
For the record, this is the build I have in mind (although it's not the right GPU model - this is the one, but I can't find it on pcpartpicker for some reason).
Thank you.
