Question RTX 2060 still viable for 1080p gaming in 2022?

i am looking to upgrade an ageing 1060 in a desktop pc with something more modern.However my budget is not that high and so i have been on the lookout for cheaper gpus.

I have found a couple of Zotac RTX 2060s (6gb) within my price range at a local retail outlet and was wondering whether those would be a good choice for running the recently released AAA titles smoothly at 1080p or not (At 50-60 fps ).

I have seen some benchmarking videos on youtube,however the results there were not very consistent.In some videos its being shown that the 2060 is performing well at 1080p,whereas in others its performance appeared strictly average.

I dont plan on running any game at crazy ultra high or similar settings-the settings will be confined to a mixture of med and high.Will that be enough to provide atleast a playable 60fps type experience even on demanding titles like cyberpunk and dying light 2?

Will enabling DLSS provide a FPS boost in newer games?

The pc in question has an i5 10400 with 16gb ram and a corsair 550 W psu.

Here is a handy chart as to suggested psu wattage for various graphics cards.
2060s may require more than you have, particularly if it is a factory overclocked unit that needs more than the usual single 8 pin connector.

Otherwise, it would be a nice graphics boost.

It is certainly worth while reading up on DLSS and giving it a try.

50-60 FPS in 1080p? Absolutely no issue.

zero issue at 1080p for a 2060
