The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB Founders Edition Review: Not Quite Mainstream
by Nate Oh on January 7, 2019 9:00 AM ESTFar Cry 5 (DX11)
The latest title in Ubisoft's Far Cry series lands us right into the unwelcoming arms of an armed militant cult in Montana, one of the many middles-of-nowhere in the United States. With a charismatic and enigmatic adversary, gorgeous landscapes of the northwestern American flavor, and lots of violence, it is classic Far Cry fare. Graphically intensive in an open-world environment, the game mixes in action and exploration.
Far Cry 5 does support Vega-centric features with Rapid Packed Math and Shader Intrinsics. Far Cry 5 also supports HDR (HDR10, scRGB, and FreeSync 2). This testing was done without HD Textures enabled, a new option that was recently patched in.
Once again, the RTX 2060 (6GB) slots in neatly between the GTX 1070 Ti and GTX 1080, useful given that the GTX 1070 Ti only had a slim lead on the RX Vega 56.
As for the high resolution texture pack, Far Cry 5 released a free 29GB patch adding toggleable HD Textures, and it's something we'll want to look into as we investigate VRAM limitations. Generally, high-resolution texture packs are a simple way of increasing visual fidelity without significantly hurting framerates, provided the card has enough framebuffer.

Basically...the 2060 is the ultimate Ultra-Quality, 1080p, 60 fps card for 2019 @ $350.karakarga - Tuesday, January 15, 2019 - link
Do not buy 20xx serie actually. Why, because, PCI-express 4.0 is coming with AMD, soon with Intel probably. Wait for 21xx by nVidia instead. The scores are not really exciting, and nVidia must jump to 7~10nm which can provide more transistors with lower TDP. RTX 2060 card with 160 Watt consumption is really high!Gastec - Saturday, January 19, 2019 - link
I have played this waiting game for just 2 years. Now the prices have doubled. Moore's Law is dead. Long live Rock's law! :Pfavemogi - Monday, March 8, 2021 - link
Vic finished his pancakes first. I was still eating when he came around behind me. His hands slid down over my sweater and then slid up under. I still hadn't put on a bra and his icy hands folded against the skin of my boobs https://livesex.bar/ . I actually liked that and was unable to say no. I let him pull off everything up top. Eventually, I reached back between his legs to tug him around where I could see. The bulge in his pants was impressive and I opened them. His cock flopped out when I pulled down his jockeys. I watched it flop about as he slid out of his shoes and pants.
