I currently have an RTX 2060 in my gaming rig but am possibly looking to upgrade a little bit. I've been wondering about faster GPU's and i'm currently wondering if the RTX 2080 is worth it's heavy price tag. I do enjoy having the Ray-tracing technology so available so it's one of my first choices. If it's not worth it, what else should I get?

I want to register my vehicle online but I don't know my car's VIN number and I don't have the renewal paper. Is it possible to still get this done through you guys?

Honestly this is not worth the price, it's just a question of time until the AMD competition has come up with something better and at a better price.

At this point unless you really need that extra power the 2060 should be fine. the 2060 is quite a good graphics card. I would really only say to go for a 2080 if you are doing VR and want the best graphics but if your going for the best graphics in vr then you most likely wont have money problems. if you do get it open box, its basically new but you dont get the seal but you get a good discount without losing any power from any hardware decay.

No need to upgrade RTX 2060 to 2080. RTX 2060 Is capable of playing most video games.

GTX 1080 Ti here. At 1440p I absolutely want something stronger than a 2080 Ti before I bite the bullet again. I'm barely holding 60-70fps on some games on Ultra 1440p. I'm wanting my full 144hz and I feel like that's still another 2 GPU lines away.

Ehh, It's good but at this point a newer, better gpu is just going to come out in a couple months anyways, id just wait until then, and get a little longer lifespan out of it. that or buy a 2080 when idk the 3080 comes out, at a lower price

If you already have a RTX 2060 and have no troubles playing the games you do play, upgrading to a RTX 2080 would just cost you money.

The RTX 2060 is already a powerful GPU. If you want to upgrade something else, you should upgrade your CPU and get a nvme m.2 ssd. You could also go to the website userbenchmark and build a pc to see how powerful it would be.
