^ Expect pricing to be higher than GTX 1000 series launch prices. Hopefully AMD releases a competitor to RTX 2060 fast.

According to rumor:
  • GeForce RTX 2080: August 30
  • GeForce RTX 2070: September 27
  • GeForce RTX 2060: October 25

Would now be a good time to buy an used pascal series gpu such as the 1060 6gb for around 18k?Or should i just wait for the next gen gpus to launch?

Is there any info as to whether the entry level geforce cards such as the 2060 will feature hardware based ray tracing support or not?

If you are sure the card was not used for mining you could buy it. I think the lowest GTX 1060 6 GB on retail stores got was around 22K before mining happened. You could wait for 2060 but expect the price to be higher until AMD releases a competitive card (which means more waiting). Whether the card will have ray tracing hardware or not we will possibly know by the end of this month officially.

If this trend continues,can anyone predict how much the 2060 and 2050 will cost in india if they are released later this year?Have there been any reports on whether these gpus will have the RTX cores that are present in their more expensive counterparts?

It seems nvidia is committing highway robbery with the way they have priced their newer gpus-i really miss those pre 2016 days when one could pick up a gtx 970(which was the top of the line gpu at the time) for only 23-25k and a gtx 960 for only about 18k.Have the increase in prices been driven by the demand for cryptocurrency mining?

I miss pre 2010 days when you could buy a 9800GT for less than 10K :wah:
Prices are high because AMD has nothing to offer at the moment. Also rupee value depreciated a lot.

Thats in 2020, right? Even then I doubt Intel will price their GPUs aggressively. They will be around the similar price point of whatever GPUs nVidia will launch around that time.

Thats true, AMD is the only known player thats been to deliberately launch at lower prices to sell more. Intel and Nvidia's marketing strategy seems to be quite diff

Hopefully the crypto craze dies out when AMD launches their new GPUs. I still remember RX570 4GB was for around 17k and the performance it offered was around 90% of GTX 1060 6GB before the frigging miners made the price of the GPU go up like an exponential curve.

Yep, it was as low as 15.5 k. One of the best 1080p bargains.

On paper how does the RTX 2080 compare with GTX 1080Ti?

Not sure how much faster GDDR6 is than GDDR5X. 1080Ti - 11GB vs 2080 - 8GB. 1080Ti has more TFLOPS.
