ASUS GeForce RTX 2060 Overclocked 6G GDDR6 Dual-Fan EVO Edition VR Ready HDMI DisplayPort DVI Graphics Card

I have heard a lot about this generation of cards over the years and have thought about upgrading to it, but never really cared to. Until recently. I don't do a lot of hard core gaming nor do I play some of the more high end newer games that have come out on the market recently, but for what I do, this card works great.My video card started to act up recently, an older NVIDIA 470, so I started looking for newer card that was good enough to play so games but not break the bank. I searched around and settled for the RTX 2060 OC version.Installation went pretty well, no issues there. It is currently supporting my three monitors with no problems, even while playing a game. Frame rate is decent while play COD: Black OP 3. In the 70s with everything set to high. There is some fan noise, but not a lot more that usual than when my rig is running.What I really do is model computer networks and needed a card that would support multiple monitors at once with high resolution. Along with detailed documents. This one does it very well.Its been running without a hitch so far about a month with no issues. I like it.

Paired with an Intel i5 9400k and 32gb of ddr4 ram, it handles anything I throw at it. I'm not big on online multi-player games, but I can say I am big into visual mods on large open world solo games. So far I have played the Witcher 3, cyberpunk 2077, gta v, beamng drive, control, and several other AAA titles, and have had a great experience. Every game except control ran over 60fps. On average, with peaks over 120, it usually around 70-75 fps with heavy mods, and everything set to ultra. I tried ray tracing on cyberpunk but I don't believe it worked, as the fps and visuals were the same. Control is a different story, I was getting a solid 35fps with ray tracing on and around 50 with it off. Keep in mind, this is on ultra settings, without any tweaks. I'm sure you could pump a bit more out of this card, but I plan on using it for awhile as I don't game very often. All in all, great gpu at a good price. The price to performance is very solid, unlike some other over priced cards that don't perform as their price should warrant.

This video card delivers very good results, but be advised that it is really big. I have a very big desktop case, and I had trouble even getting it into the case. The problem is the height above the motherboard. I had to remove the metal mounting bracket from the end of the card to even get it plugged into the PCIe slot. I was then able to reattach the bracket from outside the case. Next, the 8-pin power receptacle is mounted on the top (side away from the mother board), so when I plugged in the power cable, I could no longer put the cover back on the case. Fortunately there is small adapter you can buy on Amazon that effective turns the receptacle 180 degrees. After installing that, I could close the case and this graphics card works fine.

I bought this video card a few years ago and it has worked without any problems, however it is currently considered an entry-level graphics card and does not have much power for my current requirements.
