Just wanting to upgrade my trusty 1060 6Gb and RX 580 PCs. I saw the Youtube video of GN's Steve Burke about the 2060 KO GPU die to be a 2080. It will be beneficial for productivity programs but not games. On the other hand 5600 XT new bios gave it way better performance than a 1660Ti and RTX 2060 on some games. I play games like CS:GO, Battletech, revisiting Witcher 3 and Totalwar:Warhammer series.

Just get whichever is cheaper. If u do just 1080p then go with zotac 2060 mini.

also need to consider your monitor refresh rate, no point buying gpus that can crank out 1080p at >100fps if monitor can't handle. honestly for now even gtx1060/70 or rx480/570/580 are still sufficient for 1080p gaming at max settings. u are probably better off staying on your current rigs unless u are looking for power savings, which then again is only relevant for the 580 rigs since the 2060 draws more power than the 1060.
