EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 KO ULTRA GAMING, 06G-P4-2068-KR, 6GB GDDR6, Dual Fan, Metal Backplate

The best 'budget' card (<£300) available right now. Was looking at 1660 series and 5600 cards too, but most of these were just as expensive, if not even pricier for most of the models and mostly those perform slightly worse. With this card you also get ray-tracing cores and the NVENC codec for much smoother streaming. At the Amazon direct price of £269, this was easily the best choice. Getting huge improvements in games over my old RX580.

Great graphics card which has been given a new lease of life following AMD FSR and Nvidia DLSS. Still holds up 1080p gaming today, pulling 180+fps in CS2, 60+fps in RDR2 in high/ultra settings. Easy to install as all graphics cards are, will fit in a standard PC case just fine. As much as I do like this card, unless you really want an EVGA graphics card there are so many better options out now that this card is no longer the best value for money like it used to be in 2020. Look around for a 5070 or if the budget doesn’t extend that far a 5060 or some of the newer AMD cards provide much better compatibility with newer titles and processing technology and will be supported for much longer.

Bought this EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 KO ULTRA graphics card mainly to increase rendering speed in 3D modelling software such as Blender. Factory overclocked for greater speed yet still within a safe optimisation. Performs brilliantly - complex frames using Blender's Cycles render-engine used to take well over 4 minutes to finish but are now complete in around 40 seconds (ensure you switch your Scene/Cycles/Device to 'GPU Compute'. Make sure you only tick your new card from Prefs/System/CyclesRenderDevices/Optix - if you also tick Cuda or CPU as well then Blender will be slower, definitely a case of 'less is more'). Also speeds up productivity as the layout screen is now buttery smooth. Games run ok, though not anything that's remotely modern apart from strategy stuff like Civ or Humankind (both of these run brilliantly on this card). Halo Infinite and Starfield were not handled well.

I built my first gaming PC using this GPU, I sold my PS4 and wanted to move only to PC games since I mainly play tactical shooter games. I paired it with a Ryzen 5 3600. Works great for the games that I play. I get 350-400 fps on the csgo settings that I play on (not 1080p however) and get very high fps on Valorant on maximum settings. I've played shadow of war, hitman, assassin's creed unity all on max settings and they all look great. While using Nvidia experience to record gameplay I haven't noticed a performance hit so it's a great GPU for recording gameplay without the need for a capture card. EVGA also have great customer support from what I've been told compared to other GPU manufacturers so I'd definitely recommend this card for a £700-£800 gaming PC and a GTX 1660 super for anything cheaper. Some cons is that there is a little bit of coil whine when under heavy load, but most GPUs have a little whine when playing games. The GPU gets fairly warm too at 75 degrees when playing games ( but I've been told that 75 is fine and pretty normal). I haven't tested out any ray tracing abilities but I don't expect it to compare well against some of the higher end RTX cards.

This is a superb card for the price. All games that iv tried have played at highest setting on full hd and some even on 2k and a some on 4k at slightly slower setting. But to be honest, unless your playing on a 55inch monitor/TV you'll not really notice a great deal of difference. Especially if your concentrating anyway. I personally think this card hits the sweet spot.

Instead of writing a review straight away for this card I thought it best to give it a test-drive first.i have to say this card is amazing, plays anything I throw at it, all the modern titles. I HIGHLY recommend this card.

i would say this gpu is not good if you just want to stick it in and leave as is. the default settings are wacky; fans spin sporadically, temps are high, coil whine quite audible, etc. luckily with some tweaking you can fix these issues using software like msi afterburner. set a custom fan curve thats a lot smoother and adjust the voltage so less power is used. less power = less heat and less coil whine for the same performance (1935mhz @ 0.887mv). with the tweaks made, i can expect to run most demanding games at 1440p on high - ultra settings and still get more than 60fps. for example, death stranding and forza horizon 4 on high, i get stable 77fps (fps capped in geforce settings). no comment on rtx as i havent tried it. this gpu should stay strong for a couple more years, so far i am happy with my purchase. 4.5/5.

Got this after my 970 kicked the bucket, really good card, plays all current games at 60 fos and then some

📃 Nel momento in cui sto scrivendo questa recensione, ovvero Dicembre 2020 è impossibile oggettivamente parlando, trovare delle GPU a buon prezzo sia nella parte di Nvidia che nella controparte AMD. 🍀 Fortunatamente sono riuscito ad accaparrarmi uno degli ultimi esemplari di GPU, in particolare questa a circa 266€ durante gli sconti del WHD del 13 Ottobre del 2020. ✔️ Ottima per il Full HD ad altro refresh rate o 1440p a 60Hz oppure 4K a 30. ✔️ Punto di accesso alle tecnologie di RayTracing, soprattutto di DLSS che vi garantirà più prestazioni in game. ▪️ Ovviamente in futuro usciranno nuove GPU, ed anche la controparte AMD avrà tali tecnologie o simili confermate ad oggi. ✔️ Questa custom in particolare non scalda tanto e non fa tanto rumore. 💭 Ad oggi è impossibile trovarla a buon prezzo, quindi vi toccherà aspettare o riuscire ad accaparrarvi una RX 5600XT a buon prezzo anche se è impossibile anche per quelle. 👍 Consigliatissima ancora oggi per la fascia di prezzo dei sotto i 300 euro.

Super excelente funciono al 100 y el envio fue rapido

Na meerdere 2060’s te hebben geprobeerd die allemaal vreselijke coilwhine bleken te hebben (Gaming Z, Strix) of andere issues (Asus Dual met tikkende fans) bij deze kaart uitgekomen. Geen backplate of rgb, maar wel stil en snel voor een 2060.

Edit: La gráfica hace un ruido estático cada vez que se le pide carga gráfica y se silencia cuando se navega por el escritorio; es un ruido bastante molesto que suena como si metiéramos una canica en una lavadora, es tan fuerte el ruidito que hasta lo escuchamos cuando llevamos cascos. Buena tarjeta gráfica, se la he comprado a mi sobrino para mejorar la antigua Rx 570 que tenía. Viene muy bien envuelta, con una capa de papel de burbujas, seguida de otra de espuma y por dentro una última capa de plástico antiestático. En la mano notamos que gran parte de la tarjeta está hecho de plástico endeble a excepción del backplate trasero que es metálico. Jugando se pode de máxima unos 70° con la curva de ventilación de la casa. Me ha dado algún pantallazo negro ya os iré actualizando.

The EVGA RTX 2060KO was faulty out of the box. It cost me money to send it back so overall i lost out. I wasted time and lost money so Im not very happy. Plus this was my first experience with Amazon too.
