Only Nvidia’s GeForce RTX graphics cards perform real-time ray tracing though. The futuristic technology has been slow to gain steam, but began seeing more traction at E3 2019, where several hotly anticipated games announced support plans. If you don’t want to miss out, and don’t mind leaving the faster overall speeds of the Radeon RX 5700 series on the table to get it, the $400 RTX 2060 Super is a good option, delivering performance on par with the original $500 RTX 2070.
Finally, the new $500 GeForce RTX 2070 Super is a stellar option of its own if you want to feed a high refresh rate 1440p gaming monitor and even better ray tracing performance. It’s only slightly behind the original RTX 2080 in performance, and that costs $700 or more. But if you don’t care about ray tracing and don’t need to max out frames, the Radeon RX 5700 XT is only a step behind the Nvidia option for $100 less.
Don’t buy Radeon Vega graphics cards or the original RTX 2070 at this point unless you find them at spectacular discounts. This new wave of GPUs blows their value proposition out of the water.
