Question [Videocardz] nVidia planning 2060 12 GB

NVIDIA rumored to launch GeForce RTX 2060 with 12GB memory by January 2022 - VideoCardz.com

NVIDIA to reintroduce GeForce RTX 2060 with 12GB memory? We have new information on planned update to GeForce RTX 20 series. Back in January, it was reported that NVIDIA is bringing back a large stock of RTX 2060 graphics cards. This would be a direct response to the market situation at the...

Could be released by January. Here's your answer for what they plan on doing with the Turing wafers that were meant for CMP.

The hardware demands of Halo: infinite are overblown. I have played it multiple times on a Lenovo flex 2 in 1 with a 4700u. Yes, everything is turned all the way down, but, it is playable at 1080p.

I think the issue is that for how it looks it does not run well enough. Halo 5 ran on a 7790 GPU and a netbook CPU and from what I have heard, looks better. Some screens I have seen of draw distance are horrendous.

We can hope for a flight sim level patch.

We have strayed pretty far in this discussion from the 2060 12GB, but I think that was inevitable given the reason this card even exists.

And @blckgrffn is on point. Infinite does not look impressive enough to explain the poor performance. I give 343 credit though. Considering it launched with a new version of windows recently launched, and is a console first title, they did a good job.

We will probably get FSR, exclusive full screen, and some other stuff.

I wonder if we will see an AIB use above spec VRAM on a 2060/12G, or at least above spec enought to matter.

Then they’ll see out and prices would increase.
I do agree decent APUs would help.
Problem to me is simply production. Not enough places making chips.

The problem is demand. As long as mining is highly profitable there will be demand to swallow up any amount of supply of gpus. Especially knowing there is huge pent up demand from gamers to dump their cards onto if mining becomes unprofitable.

6 or a half dozen but yeah I agree

TLDR - If you don't think the 5 series APUs are decent, then it is my considered opinion that the problem is you, not the APUs. And if your contention revolves around hardware crushing modern games? My response is - pony up or shut up. Life ain't fair, and you are old enough to know that having caviar taste and tuna budget is a character flaw.

I'm so sad now. I liked being my own oxymoron. Now it's a character flaw! I'm giving up my hobby now so I can grow up. You are so mean

Counter opinion- AMD already makes good desktop APUs. I can play well over a 100 games in my personal library with a 5600g or 5700G. Many of those with maxed out or higher settings 1080p. Forza Horizon 5 just came out and you can do better than locked 30 1440p low with either APU.

If someone demands to be able to play Warzone, BF 2042, Tarkov, or the big AAA's at higher settings and refresh? I say pony up or shut up. Particularly applicable to our crowd i.e. financially secure, older, and evidently, salty. When most of the members here complain, I check it off as old man screams at clouds. "It's the principle of the thing! They ain't extorting me! I never paid more than X amount, and I ain't doing it now! I'll buy a console! I'll stop gaming, and they'll be sorry! 60fps is minimum! I'm a high refresh gamer! I play at 4K" or whatever fist shaking at the clouds complaint is made. For me it translate to "Do you have any Grey Poupon?" Pay up if that is your bag Mr. Fancy pants.

Myself? I just started Halo Infinite. It is way too hardware demanding for the way it looks. I suspect it will be like MSFS and get a performance patch later that improves things quite a bit. But my 2070Super is good enough. If all I had was my 5700G though, I'd make it work. Or I'd skip it and play older games I missed or was wanting to play again. I played the Master Chef collection on the 5700G just fine, to get hyped for Infinite. There are many more. GTAV is still one of the most played games, and a 5700G can do 1080p high with above 60fps. I will stop there, since I think that illustrates my point well enough.

TLDR - If you don't think the 5 series APUs are decent, then it is my considered opinion that the problem is you, not the APUs. And if your contention revolves around hardware crushing modern games? My response is - pony up or shut up. Life ain't fair, and you are old enough to know that having caviar taste and tuna budget is a character flaw.

And this not targeted at anyone in particular, despite the quote. I am strongly opinionated on this subject, that's all.

- I've always heard "Nordstrom Quality on Walmart Prices..." but who goes to big box retail stoors except for tweens and the poors, M I RITE?!

Growing up, it was either Champagne taste on a beer budget. Which I don't use anymore because of what these damned Hipsters pay for beer. Or caviar on a tuna fish budget. Which I probably should amend to canned tuna, since that blue fin tuna sold for $3.1 million.

And back to the show - Nvidia is brilliant for no MSRP/RRP. Gets tiresome reading all the complaints based on the mythical MSRP every time a new vid card is released. Now, want to complain? Pick a card partner kid, any partner. Or a retailer, makes no difference. But the MSRP talking point, which was the best ammo haters had, is now a blank.

- Well, you're in luck, cause thanks to Miller High Life you can actually have the "Champaign of Beers", although we might be moving too deep into metaphor territory now. As for that tuna, yikes!

Anyhow, hipsters ruin everything.
