Default GTX 1050 or GTX 1660 or RTX 2060

Hi! I need some help for buying new PC upgrade about video card. I heard about RTX is failing and dying video card but the problem is I can't choose, because some of them can get burning video card, dying ect.
Which are best fast, powerful and can hold for long period without getting burning, smoke and any issue Nvidia video card.

I'm sorry...wha...what

RTX is failing and dying? Graphics card without getting burned, smoke...what?

Of the 3 cards you mentioned, the most powerful is (obviously) the RTX 2060.

But RTX 2060 is only really necessary if you play games in 4K and want the best performance.

If you want to play games in 1080p60fps then you can get an AMD RX 570, 580 or others. They are very cheap and they have a really good performance.

Please, give us more information about the performance you need, tell us what you need to do with your PC.

I don't need AMD, I want Nvidia video card with powerful and fast but only not getting any issue. That all. If you don't understand what I'm saying, close this thread for not helping me.

1) just because it's AMD it doesn't mean it's less powerful, nVidia graphics cards are overpriced garbage

2) I can't close threads lol

Sure, NVIDIA is overpriced, but you cannot say that RTX is trash, failing and dying, not since raytracing is the future of realistic-looking gaming. OP, go for the RTX 2060, without a doubt. If you don't wanna go RTX that's fine, your choice, but please do not waste money on 1050.
Yes, the RTX 2060 is the most powerful of these, obviously, also the most future-proofing of all. I'm sometimes struggling to keep 1080p60fps on ultra settings on most newer games with my 1070. (ok, not that dramatic, but framerate dips below 60 frequently in demanding areas.)

Yeah, I forgot to say that. The 1050 is weak and overpriced, there's no sense on buying this graphics card. RX 570 costs less and has way more powerful performance.

I hear some rumors about 1050 after update Nvidia card, framerate drops like stuttering.
So, 1050 say Bye-bye.
Maybe RTX 2060 is perfect for me but I'll search on forums, Reddit etc. and then, I'll buy it.

Yeah but please, don't buy pre-assembled PCs. They are overpriced garbage. They cost like $300 more than an actual PC assembled by you with the same components. Assembling a PC is very easy. There are hundreds of tutorials on internet.

Pre-assembled PC also contains a lot of pre-installed applications and games which consume your HDD or SSD space, and some of them can't even be uninstalled.

I'd personally go with the 1660. The RTX series isn't really necessary atm imo.
