RTX 2060 vs GTX 1080

[ThreeDee]

Would you guys trade a GTX 1080 (vanilla) for any variation of a non-super RTX 2060?

I've searched reviews and comparisons and what not and both card variants seem to be neck and neck over several different titles with perhaps the GTX 1080 being a smidge faster (a few frames per second faster on average as a whole).

...but the RTX 2060 has newer 'tech' .. Tensor cores and such that might do way better on DX12 and newer titles? Less power draw at near same performance..

what do you guys think?

If it's not costing you anything, you gain raytracing and DLSS

If it costs you something, then I wouldn't... RT and DLSS aren't worth anything to any of the games I play, but to each their own.

You also lose 2gb of VRAM, so probably not worth it.
