The Turing-powered RTX 2000-series gaming GPUs will come with most of the features integrated in the RTX Quadro professional cards, but at a fraction of the price. For now, Nvidia unveiled only three models - the RTX 2070, RTX 2080 and RTX 2080Ti; however, there are rumors of possible GTX 2060 and 2050 cards that could be launched in October.

I saw the 2hr NVidia presentation live online.  I'm impressed with the new architecture, but it's all about the Ray Tracing Cores and the Tensor Cores.  NVidia only referred to performance in relation to Ray Tracing performance, ie if you have ray tracing turned on in games.  They didn't talk about the raw conventional performance of the card, which is what will count when ray tracing is not enabled & is gonna dictate how much more powerful these cards are over Pascal.  All information out so far indicates that this Turing generation is not a load more powerful than Pascal when it comes to conventional processing power, so I only see it worth upgrading if you want ray tracing in games now;  I think it's better to wait for the next architecture where the cards will have significantly more raw conventional power as well as an optimised Ray Tracing Core and Tensor core layout - they will have learned from the experiences with this first architecture.

I think the NVdia cooler looks great, and also they say it's 5 times quieter while having more cooling performance than their previous reference designs.

A question for Notebookcheck, do you think we will see the RTX GPUs in laptops? Their TDP seems to be too high for mobile devices.

Not sure if they will have ray-tracing capabilities, but the 2000-series mobile GPUs should be launched in November-December this year, according to Gigabyte and Lenovo at least.
