Nvidia now has a grand total of four GeForce RTX desktop graphics cards on the market. Should you upgrade your graphics card or should you wait? We’ve broken down the four new Nvidia GeForce RTX 20 series graphics cards to determine whether you should upgrade your GPU now, wait to upgrade your graphics card, or skip this generation of Nvidia RTX GPUs depending on your chosen price point.

GeForce RTX 2060

Price – $349

The GeForce RTX 2060 is an entry-level raytracing graphics card that commands a hefty $100+ price premium over the previous GTX 1060. It is, however, a significant performance bump for those looking play at 1080p. While the RTX 2060 can hold its own in Battlefield V with ray-traced reflections, we don’t expect it to be able to compete in this area for long.

Our advice right now for those looking to buy a GeForce RTX 2060 is to wait another month or two. There are three reasons for this. Firstly, we want to get a better picture of how the RTX 2060 performs in other DXR titles. Secondly, we want to know what impact DLSS is going to have in performance. And thirdly, we want to see if the rumours are true of a cheaper GeForce GTX 2060 sans raytracing

Buy, Wait or Don’t Buy? – Wait

Alternative: If you’re the market for a $350 graphics card then, on paper, the RTX 2060 is going to be the best buy for the money. However, you could pick up a GTX 1060 6GB for $100 cheaper. That’s 70% of the price though for around 60-70% of the performance so it’s not the greatest deal. The best alternative would be to wait and see what happens with the rumoured GTX 2060 though.

GeForce RTX 2070

Price – $549

The first point that needs to be made is that if you’re gaming on a 1080p monitor, do not bother with the GeForce RTX 2070 unless you’re extremely keen on raytracing. The performance differential between the GeForce RTX 2060 and RTX 2070 just isn’t worth the $200 price difference.

If you’re playing at 1440p there’s a slight difference and there is a case to be made the GeForce RTX 2070 is value for money at this price point. We wouldn’t recommend it as it’s still only pulling in 15-20% higher frame rates than the 2060 but it is at least slightly more futureproofed. 

Buy, Wait or Don’t Buy? – Don’t Buy

Alternative: The GeForce RTX 2070 is an odd graphics card with odd price/performance. If you’re mulling over whether you should upgrade to a new GTX 1070 Ti or an RTX 2070, we’d go with the RTX 2070 all day though, particularly if DLSS plays as big a part as we hope. If you can find a second-hand GTX 1080 Ti for the $550 price point though then that could be the ultimate solution.

GeForce RTX 2080

Price – $799

For PC gaming enthusiasts, the GeForce RTX 2080 may be the Goldilocks graphics card of the RTX range. The RTX 2080 is available for 33% cheaper than the RTX 2080 Ti and yet it can still hold its own as a 4K video card. Frame rates will dip below 60fps at 4K Ultra in some titles but it’s still a fantastic single-GPU solution. If you currently own a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti though, then don’t bother, it’s just not worth it.

One other area where the RTX 2080 truly excels is at 1440p. If you 1440p with a high refresh rate is your aim, the RTX 2080 delivers a marked increase over the RTX 2070’s performance. You can feasibly hit 100fps at 1440p Ultra provided you pair it with a great CPU.

Up until this week, we would’ve been inclined to wait and see what the competition is up to before buying a GeForce RTX 2080. However, having seen the initial benchmarks for the AMD Radeon VII we’re shifting it to a tentative ‘Buy’. AMD isn’t going to have anything that absolutely smashes its performance in the near future, while Nvidia is only just getting settled into the Turing gen. If you have an older graphics card and want to know whether to upgrade your GPU, the RTX 2080 is a great buy for those with deep pockets.

Buy, Wait or Don’t Buy? – Buy

Alternative: The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti or the Radeon Vega VII are the obvious alternatives to the RTX 2080. Stocks of the 1080 Ti appear to be drying up though so it’s not the value buy it was six months ago. AMD’s Radeon Vega VII is $100 cheaper than the RTX 2080 and will hold its own in terms of performance, although comes with the major caveat that it’s not capable of raytracing features.

GeForce RTX 2080 Ti

Price – $1199

If you’re going to upgrade to a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti in 2019 you’re going to want to do it sooner rather than later. Nvidia’s flagship RTX graphics card has now spent three months at the top of the heap, and it will probably stay there for another 18 months, at least among the gaming-focused GPUs. If you have a lot of cash to spare and you want the best of the best, now is your time. In terms of cost-per-frame, the RTX 2080 Ti isn’t great value but it does offer best-in-class performance.

Our one worry is the RTX price premium is due to the ray-tracing capabilities. The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti not only very expensive but it’s also first-gen RTX tech. Nvidia could massively improve ray-tracing with its next-gen hardware and leave the RTX 2080 Ti looking a little basic. Not ideal for a $1200 graphics card. That is a while away though and you could potentially sell your RTX 2080 Ti to fund a decent chunk of a next-gen upgrade.

Buy, Wait or Don’t Buy? – Buy

Alternative: For those who want the best of the best, there really is no alternative to the RTX 2080 Ti for gamers. This is a formidable graphics card with no notable competition.

We start today with big news for Bungie. The Destiny and former Halo studio has announced it is parting ways with Activision after a nine-year partnership, and it’s bringing Destiny with it.

While Bungie has been an independent studio since parting ways with Microsoft in 2007, a 10-year publishing agreement with Activision for Destiny essentially locked them down. This deal was inked in April 2010 and so it is only coming to an end slightly earlier than previously expected.

“With Activision, we created something special,” writes Bungie and the Destiny Dev Team in a letter to fans. “To date, Destiny has delivered a combination of over 50 million games and expansions to players all around the world.

“We have enjoyed a successful eight-year run and would like to thank Activision for their partnership on Destiny. Looking ahead, we’re excited to announce plans for Activision to transfer publishing rights for Destiny to Bungie. With our remarkable Destiny community, we are ready to publish on our own, while Activision will increase their focus on owned IP projects.”

We doubt there are going to be many tears shed for the breakdown of this particular relationship. Bungie has proven itself as one of the most capable first-person shooter studios in the world over the years, although some questionable decision-making has certainly marred Destiny’s success. Whether that was down to Bungie or to the suits at Activision, we just don’t know, but Bungie will have full creative control going forward.

One of the main bugbears of the publishing deal was that Bungie was required to hit a strict timeline of DLC, expansions and new games, leading to content that was pushed out merely to hit a schedule. Destiny and Destiny 2 have enjoyed some fantastic expansions, and they’re also suffered some of the worst. Going forward it is at least always in the creators’ hands.

We’ve had the system requirements for The Division 2 but nestled alongside this was one other crucial piece of information – The Division 2 will not be launching on Steam. Ubisoft has instead opted into a partnership with Epic to launch The Division 2 on the Epic Games Store as well as Ubisoft’s own Uplay launcher. The Division 2 Steam page has now been pulled down.

Epic and Ubisoft say they’ll be working together to integrate the components of both the Uplay and Epic stores in order to allow both ecosystems work interoperably and with seamless social features. It sounds as if anyone buying Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 on the Epic Game Store will also require a Uplay install and login in order to boot TD2. Basically, how Steam currently works with Uplay.

“We entrust Epic to deliver a smooth journey for our fans, from preordering the game and enjoying our Beta to the launch of Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 on March 15,” said Chris Early, vice president of partnerships at Ubisoft. “Epic continues to disrupt the videogame industry, and their third party digital distribution model is the latest example, and something Ubisoft wants to support.”

“As long-time fans and partners of Ubisoft, we’re thrilled to bring a range of awesome Ubisoft games to the Epic Games store,” said Tim Sweeney, founder and CEO of Epic, and he of the bulging pockets. “We aim to provide the most publisher-friendly store, providing direct access to customers and an 88% revenue split, enabling game creators to further reinvest in building great games.”

What’s really interesting in Sweeney’s comment is the suggestion of a “range of awesome Ubisoft games”. This could mean Ubisoft’s back catalogue or, alternatively, Ubisoft is planning to bring more upcoming games to the Epic Store, such as Skull & Bones, Beyond Good & Evil 2, and the rumoured Splinter Cell game. 

It’s a classic case of you scratch our back, we’ll scratch yours. Epic has probably convinced Ubisoft to make the move thanks to some sort of deal or financial wrangling. This could be cash, it could be a 0% cut loss leader, or it could just simply be that Ubisoft’s 88% take from an Epic sale is more tempting to the French publisher. As for Ubisoft, it’s long been trying to wrangle control away from Steam. Ubisoft launched Uplay and briefly experimented with launching games exclusively through its own store but the massive Steam user base has always forced it to revert to type. Clearly, Ubisoft feels this stranglehold can be broken with the arrival of the Epic Games Store, although it’s surely going to take a sales hit from ardent Steam users.

As for whether Ubisoft will eventually buckle and release The Division 2 on Steam, a Ubisoft representative said: “We have no plans currently on releasing Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 on Steam.”

It’s an interesting power-play, for sure. Fans are going to lose out on Steam integration but the core of it remains the same – you will have to launch The Division 2 through Uplay, regardless of how you buy the game. If you’re not a fan of the Epic Games Store or Epic’s way of doing things, you can just still buy The Division 2 directly through Uplay and play TD2 as normal.

The Division 2 launches on March 15th for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The new Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown trailer is promising to take us right into the danger zone. Once you’ve got the awesomely melodramatic, anime-inspired solo campaign out of the way, Ace Combat 7 is also packing a multiplayer component for some competitive dogfighting.

Both Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch are going to be available, allowing up to eight players to face off in the skies. A grand total of 28 aircraft will be available to choose from, alongside over 100 enhanced parts and weapons to customise them with, as well as the usual cosmetics.

Following the traditional Most Wanted ruleset found in other games, players that are higher up the scoreboard will be highlighted in-game and will have a bounty on their heads. Killing the top player grants a bigger score bonus, leveling the playing field somewhat.

Ace Combat 7 comes to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on January 18th. Unfortunately, PC players are going to have to wait a little longer to see what the fuss is all about. Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown is out a few weeks later on PC than consoles, taking off on February 1st. At least that gives plenty of time to find out whether it’s a game that’s living up to expectations.

In the meantime be sure to give the Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown PC system requirements a gander. They’re not an overly demanding set of specs to be honest, although on PC it seems we’ve got no VR version to worry about.

Microsoft has run into a rather embarrassing hiccup lately that means Windows Update fails to properly check there’s enough space on local storage for a Windows 10 patch before it downloads and attempts to install it. This can lead to a potential scenario where Windows 10 fails to reboot properly due to a failed partial update attempt.

It’s a fairly straightforward problem with Microsoft saying “Windows Update does not check systems for adequate space requirements before it initializes.” Microsoft’s solution to the problem isn’t so straightforward though, asking users to clear all temporary files and to keep themselves aware of when storage space may be limited.

On top of this, Microsoft has taken the audacious move of reserving another 7GB of your available storage. If you are running Windows 10 and have the latest Windows update (Version 1903 – 19H1), Microsoft will have snaffled up around 7GB of your storage on top of your current installation.

The reserved storage is basically untouchable. There is no feature within Windows 10 to disable this process and so once you receive the Version 1903 – 19H1 this space is permanently gone. For a lot of people this isn’t going to be a major issue, but for folks with limited storage such as OS installations on small SSDs, or Windows 10 powered notebooks and tablets, this can quickly become a pain. Some Windows 10 laptops, for example, come with 32GB storage total. Microsoft is swallowing up 22% of their storage overnight.  I haven’t been blessed with this particular update just yet, although I’ve somehow got 43GB occupied by system files and reserved files which already sounds heinously large.

Microsoft’s reasoning for the change is as follows: “Through reserved storage, some disk space will be set aside to be used by updates, apps, temporary files, and system caches. Our goal is to improve the day-to-day function of your PC by ensuring critical OS functions always have access to disk space.

Without reserved storage, if a user almost fills up her or his storage, several Windows and application scenarios become unreliable. Windows and application scenarios may not work as expected if they need free space to function. With reserved storage, updates, apps, temporary files, and caches are less likely to take away from valuable free space and should continue to operate as expected. Reserved storage will be introduced automatically on devices that come with version 1903 pre-installed or those where 1903 was clean installed.”

This doesn’t sound like the greatest way to go about such a change, particularly springing it upon users without warning. There’s certainly an argument to be made that the size of a W10 installation is ballooning out of control, particularly for those with smaller storage drivers.

AMD officially launched its Radeon RX 590 graphics card yesterday, and also unveiled a new AAA game bundle for participating GPUs.

At the time we’d assume this just applied to the Radeon RX 590 but AMD is also rolling out new games bundles to any prospective Radeon RX Vega 64, Vega 56, RX 590, RX 580, or RX 570 customers.

There are three games up for grabs in the bundles, comprising a trio of big-hitters due to launch in early 2019 – Resident Evil 2 (Jan 29th), Devil May Cry 5 (Mar 8th) and The Division 2 (Mar 15th).

Customers who pick up a Radeon RX Vega or Radeon RX 590 from a participating retailer will receive all three games with their graphics card purchase. Meanwhile, those who pick up a cheaper Radeon RX 580 or Radeon RX 570 will be able to choose from any two of the three games. These games are worth $60 each, so considering you can pick up an RX 570 for $170, that makes a bargain bin deal.

If you’re thinking of picking one up, you can find out about participating countries and retailers here.

I’ll admit being a little bit sad about MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries’ delay last year, and then I just sort of forgot about it. But, rest assured MechWarrior 5 is back and with a brand spanking new trailer to boot.

The MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries Gameplay Trailer is pretty much exactly what you’d expect to be. It’s lots of gameplay from MW5’s single-player campaign, this time showing off a whole bunch of new environments alongside some impressive destruction physics.

MechWarrior 5 is being developed in Unreal Engine 4 and Nvidia has confirmed it will support its DLSS technology for GeForce RTX graphics cards.

Some additional sadness was piled onto me right at the end of the trailer when I noticed MW5: Mercenaries won’t be ready to launch until September 10th. Where am I meant to go for all my bipedal tank mayhem in the meantime? Still, good things come to those who wait and we’re eager to see whether this classic PC series can find a new lease of life later this year.

When it comes to video editing and rendering, wasting time is the biggest pitfall to avoid. A slow system can significantly increase the amount of time you spend waiting around, time that could be spent making more content if you had a faster PC.

A fast graphics card can significantly speed up the time it takes to render a video. Some video editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro can also utilise GPU acceleration for more complex and intense tasks. In the world of video editing, graphics cards are time savers more than they are a necessity, utilising hardware-based acceleration to speed up workloads.

The graphics card certainly isn’t the be all, end all of video editing. Video editing is just as, if not more reliant on the CPU and you should be looking at a decent hexa-cora CPU to pair with your GPU, with as high a clock speed as feasible in your budget.

If you are only planning to edit 1080p video then this is perfectly feasible on a lower-end system. Graphics cards such as the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB or Radeon RX 580 8GB will handle 1080p video rendering just fine, although you can even get by on a GeForce GTX 1050 / Radeon RX 560.

If you are planning to edit 4K you will want a high-end video. A GeForce GTX 1060 6GB or Radeon RX 580 8GB can handle it, but ideally, you’d be looking in the region of a GeForce GTX 1070 and upwards. A CPU with a high clock speed is a must, preferably with fantastic single and multi-threaded performance. It’s expensive, but something along the lines of the Intel Core i9-9900K, or the Intel Core i7-9700K if you’re on a tighter budget.

If you want to join the slowly growing market for 8K video you will want a top-end graphics card with a lot of VRAM (video memory). Should you run out of VRAM during a render the software will default to your CPU and this may significantly slow down progress.

A graphics card such as the GeForce RTX 2080 or AMD Radeon VII would make for great 8K video rendering GPUs. They will need to be paired with powerful 12+ core processors in order to avoid bottlenecking the system. AMD’s Threadripper series represents the best bang for your buck here, and then you’ve got yourself the ultimate video editing system.

So to summarize:

Recommended Graphics Cards and CPUs for Video Editing

Video Rendering Nvidia GPU AMD GPU Intel CPU AMD CPU 1080p Entry-Level GeForce GTX 1050 Radeon RX 560 Intel Core i5-8600K Ryzen 5 1600X 1080p Optimised GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Radeon RX 580 8GB Intel Core i5-9600K Ryzen 5 2600X 4K GeForce GTX 1070 Radeon RX Vega 56 Intel Core i7-9700K Ryzen R7 2700X 8K GeForce RTX 2080 AMD Radeon VII Intel Core i9-9900K Threadripper 2950X

It’s also worth remembering there are other key components for building a video editing PC. Video editing and rendering software can pretty much take advantage of as much system RAM as you can throw at it. 8GB DDR4 is the absolute rock-bottom but you should looking at 16GB or more.

As well as RAM you will also find you need a lot of storage. Recording video for editing quickly takes up a ton of space, as do all the edits and renders. Ideally, you could use large-scale SSD storage for everything, but this isn’t always practical. If operating on a tighter budget we recommend a large hard-drive paired with an SSD that stores your OS and software.

Our Favorite Comments

7

“Hmm, from my experience the GPU isn’t that helpful in video yet. I’d invest money into a threadripper and an editing SSD before going GTX 1080 or better. A decent GPU helps speed up previewing and scrubbing around, but rendering, especially in H.264 is CPU territory. And editing from an SSD is joy…”

Steam has just quietly cruised past a big landmark. There are now more than 30,000 games on the Steam store in total, a number that’s been ballooning skywards in the last couple of years as the arguments for and against curation still rage.

Incredibly, the number of games on Steam more than doubled in the last two years alone. At the end of 2016 there were, and this word feels wrong in its use here, just 14,000 games. In 2017 and 2018 alone, 16,312 games were released. That’s 22.3 games per day, every day of the year, for two years straight. That’s 8,156 games per year. If the average game is 10 hours long, it would take 9.31 years of solid playing to beat a single year’s worth of Steam releases.

According to Steam, there is now a grand total of 30,040 games on the service. Steam Spy suggests that this figure is only accelerating, despite competition from other platforms such as the Epic Games Launcher, Discord, Twitch, GOG, Origin, Uplay, Battle.net and more.

If we ignore the first decade on Steam’s existence, where the number of annual game releases was a much more reasonable 100-300 per year, the data below shows how the popularity of the Steam store is growing exponentially.

Number of Games Released on Steam Per Year

2013 – 535 2014 – 1310 2015 – 2504 2016 – 4623 2017 – 6983 2018 – 9329

The big question now is, where does it end? At the current rate of growth, the number of games on Steam is doubling every 18-24 months, a number that’s surely unsustainable. The sheer number of failed games must be stratospheric at this point, either due to a lack of discoverability or being one of the thousands of hastily thrown together filler games that can litter the store.

Do you think the huge number of games releasing spells trouble for Steam? Or has Steam never been in better health? Let us know what you think below!

We’re finally waking up from a groggy start to the new year with Ubisoft revealing the PC system requirements for The Division 2, probably the biggest release of Q1 2019. The Division 2 is set to offer more of the same addictive co-op loot shooting, this time with all of the valuable lessons learned from the original’s post-launch successes and failures. TD2 is out on March 15th and here are the PC system specs requirement for The Division 2.

The Division Minimum System Requirements – 1080p @ 30fps

OS: Windows 7 64-bit CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K 4-Core 3.3 GHz or AMD FX-6350 6-Core 3.9 GHz RAM: 8 GB System Memory GPU RAM: 2 GB Video Memory GPU: GeForce GTX 670 or Radeon R9 270 DX: DirectX 11 HDD: TBA Available Hard Drive Space

The Division Recommended System Requirements – 1080p @ 60fps

OS: Windows 7 64-bit CPU: Intel Core i7-4790 4-Core 3.6 GHz or AMD Ryzen 5 1500X 4-Core 3.5 GHz RAM: 8 GB System Memory GPU RAM: 4 GB Video Memory GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon RX 480 4GB DX: DirectX 11 HDD: TBA Available Hard Drive Space

The Division 1440p System Requirements – 1440p @ 60fps

OS: Windows 7 64-bit CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 4-Core 4.0 GHz or AMD Ryzen 7 1700 8-Core 3.7 GHz RAM: 16 GB System Memory GPU RAM: 8 GB Video Memory GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 or AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 DX: DirectX 11 HDD: TBA Available Hard Drive Space

The Division Ultra System Requirements – 4K @ 60fps

OS: Windows 10 64-bit CPU: Intel Core i9-7900X 10-Core 3.3 GHz or AMD Ryzen 7 2700X 8-Core 3.5 GHz RAM: 16 GB System Memory GPU RAM: 11 GB Video Memory GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti or AMD Radeon VII DX: DirectX 12 HDD: TBA Available Hard Drive Space

This is a comprehensive set of specs for The Division 2 that Ubisoft has provided and we love comprehensive specs. Each of the four requirements settings details a specific resolution and frame rate it’s targeting, providing a nice firm idea of where you can expect performance to be on your system.

Fortunately for those without ultra high-end systems, The Division 2’s system requirements are only a moderate increase over 2016’s The Division. The minimum requirements for The Division 2 are nice and light, demanding a 2GB video card paired with a quad-core processor from the last six or seven years. Unfortunately, the minimum spec Radeon R9 270 or GeForce GTX 670 may spell trouble for those using a GTX 750 Ti, GTX 950, R7 360 and the like. A Radeon RX 550 should just about squeak into these minimum specs and achieve 30fps on 1080p at Low. If you are struggling for performance in The Division 2 then 720p is always an option.

The most popular performance target for The Division 2 will be 1080p at 60 frames per second, and anyone with a spec meeting the recommended requirements should be just fine. Higher-clocked CPUs are needed for the jump from 30 to 60 fps, paired with a mid-range graphics card from the previous gen.

The rest of the system specs are a little more niche, offering 1440p and 4K options in TD2 for those who have higher resolution monitors. You’ll need an appropriate 70-80% bump in hardware performance to push 1440p in The Division 2, as well as doubling the required RAM from 8GB to 16GB. Those with a 1440p monitor probably have decent, capable systems though, and the GTX 1070 and Vega 56 are popular at this particular resolution.

For those who want the best of the best, we’ve also got the 4K 60FPS system requirements for Division 2. Basically, you need a $2500 system to achieve this so you’ll need deep pockets. Top-end 8+ core CPUs are allegedly required, paired with the very best graphics cards Nvidia and AMD have to offer. For Nvidia, this means the $1200 GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, while for AMD, the newly announced Radeon VII should do the trick. Radeon VII performance is on par with an RTX 2080 so it’ll be interesting to see how this shakes out.

As always, you can check out how well your PC can run The Division 2 System Requirements here, where you can check benchmarking and performance from other users. Compare your graphics card to The Division 2 GPU benchmark chart and we also have a The Division 2 Frames Per Second system performance chart for you to check.
