JW3, for the win!

I'll probably watch Star Trek Discovery but won't talk positively about it, even if it's good. After all the shit les moonves has caused and litterally trying to kill all the original shows/timelines just for merchandising. If your a fan of the original shows including Next Generation, consider watching this...

6b vram vs 8 vram is the question...

I'd get 8gb if you don't upgrade frequently. But it also depends on the games you like to play and your expectations.

Yeah it's the only thing I was wish washy on, watched some vids of 6 vs 8 side by side, it's marginal in fps even when a game uses over 6. I ordered a 2060, will do a before aft with a 1070 and then move one of them to system 2, which is using a 760.

The 2060's 6GBs chokes badly on BFV's ultra textures, going from high to ultra has a WORSE perf impact than enabling DXR ( and that was @ 1080p, LOL ).

With the next-gen consoles just around the corner that will have way more than 6GB of GPU usable RAM, the 2060's 6GB is a JOKE in 2019.

Only get a 2060 if you don't plan on keeping it more than a year or 2.

I won't argue hard against that line of thinking, but some come backs could be then use high textures vs ultra. Are some ultra's really meant for 4k? I am running 1080p, next couple years main will move to 1440p. Just because a system uses more vram that a card has doesn't clearly mean stuttering. If/when consoles have greater than this and they start using that as the new default, I have no problem getting a new card, in fact I want a good reason and solid value to get a new card. I'm pretty confident we are many years away before a 2060 sucks balls, it's pretty amazing how older cards at least hang in there and are playable. System 2 and 4 have a 660 and 760 with i5's and shit they still perform.

Here's the 10x0 series running BFV and the vram used, they have it set 1080P with Ultra Textures and it is well under 6 gVram.

Passenger gets gun past screeners at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, flies with it to Tokyo.

Since they're not getting paid what with the government shut down, should we expect them to be 100%?

Electric cars will never "take over", and the battery is only part of the problem. We will need to figure out how to create an electric motor WITHOUT using Rare Earth elements. Nobody is talking about the hard truth, and when you consider that the planet doesn't contain even a FRACTION of the materials needed to make electric cars for even HALF of the driver population as it is today, to say nothing about how many people will be driving in the next 20 years. Good luck with that, morons. This push to move to electric vehicles will force us back into the stone age. No more materials to create new electronics for ANYTHING. No phones, no computers, no circuits, no NOTHING.

Benchmarks are out for that 2060, and it's basically got 1070ti/1080 performance, and has launched at $200/$100 USD LESS.

Whoever was whining, quit it!
