Much like the 16-series was to the 20-series, so too could the RTX 2060 be something of a budget alternative to the expense of the RTX 30-series. ![]() So forgive me for believing that, in such dire circumstance, Nvidia might be right to resurrect the RTX 2060 (opens in new tab). Yet so has it been sapped of its lustre by those profiteering from a rollercoaster cryptocurrency boom and bust cycle. When at a loss for one of the key components of affordable PC gaming, the hobby's well-maintained second-hand market would usually come to the rescue. Neither AMD or Nvidia offer a single discrete graphics card under $300 in either of their current-gen lineups. If you have a finite number of GPUs you can make, and all the expensive ones you've released sell out in record time, why would you make cheaper ones? ![]() There's probably an article's worth of explanation as to why there's such a dearth of cheap silicon today, but it inevitably boils down to the same damned supply issue that's causing havoc for supply of the graphics cards that actually do exist.
