I have two 4K panels at my house and both do full 4:4:4 chroma yet I still find myself going back to my QHD 144Hz G-sync display.

According to Digital Foundry, using High textures in BF5 gets you around 70 FPS with ray tracing. Seems the horse power is there actually, despite what people keep saying. But BF5 has issues with VRAM management with ray tracing on, and 6 GB gets tapped out.

Yep, I saw this too (Ultra textures lowers the fps), this is added support to my thinking that the RTX 2060 with only 6GB VRAM isn't really a card to last much beyond yr 2020 - or in other words until NVidia release their next gen of cards on 7nm process shrink...I just see this card as a stop gap to last until that point.

Question is: "What AMD has in between RX-590 and Radeon 7?"
"And what do you expect they'll do about this situation within next 6 months?"
It is not issue of capacity. It is issue of bandwidth. And issue of processing those larger textures by GPU.
In case total VRAM capacity would be issue, fps would drop drastically and stutter-fest would be noticeable even for lemur.
As much as I want to support AMDA I don't feel like they can reach the performance of 2060 for this price with the next release. Not to mention it won't be anywhere in the next 6 months ..

Why would anyone waste money on 4K when you could just go 8K?
