GeForce RTX 2060 Photo (Gigabyte) Surfaces, has 1920 Shader processors

We all know that a GeForce GTX/RTX 2050 and 2060 are coming, the question, however, is when? Well, from the looks of things, not too long as a photo and some specifications now have leaked onto the web.

The info and the photo leaked at Videocardz who claims they have it from a source at Gigabyte. Several things are being mentioned, the first is that the RTX (and it is called RTX) would be launching soon. Having that RTX nomenclature, of course, indicates some RT and perhaps Tensor cores as well.

The GPU is the TU106, and it has 30x64 = 1920 Shader processors tied towards 6GB of GDDR6 graphics memory. That shader count is interesting as it is way up from the current 1280 shader procs for the GTX 1060. But that 1.2 GHz frequency though? The photo then, it shows a basic dual-fan based cooler. The card would be fed with an 8-pin power connector, but that might be an AIB upgrade, as reference 6-pin would be more plausible.

The cards likely launch in Q1 of next year. Have a peek.

Sounds like Nvidia will make the 1070 (has exactly 1920 CUDA cores as well) into a "2060", prob less VRAM and bandwidth as well to fight off the rumored Vega 2 mid range GPU.

It'll be interesting to see the price. 2070 hardly carried a mainstream price anymore. Is the 2060 going to be at the very upper limit of what anyone would call mainstream? On the other hand, is its raytracing power going to be good for anything? I haven't yet read if 2070 RT is enough for anything. 2080Ti seems to be doing a bit better after the recent patches, but it's twice as powerful as 2070.

means they can foresee RTX getting a lot more optimization so it runs at least at 1080p 60 on the 1060
