from their review, it seems to be between the 2060 FE and the 2060 Super FE, if you HAD to get a GPU right now, rather than weighting for the new AMD releases, it would be a no brainer to go for the 2060 rather than the vega 64 as the only real advantage the 64 has is more memory, while the 2060 is cooler, quieter and uses less power.
That only if you insist on having everything on ultra (which isn't the best option considering the differences between high and ultra are so small you wouldn't know the difference).
That isn't remotely true.. I have been gaming at native 4k now since 2017 with a 1080ti, 5ghz 8700k and 16GB DDR4 3600mhz ram and today I can still crank out 60fps at 4k with the latest and greatest titles. The reason no one thinks its possible is because they are stubborn hard heads and think that every single last setting has to be cranked to full ultra or they must use absurd levels of AA which is completely stupid at 4k to start with... A lot of modern games have a few settings you can tweak which rape performance for very little IF anything in return visually over their lower settings such as high or very high instead of ultra and when you take the time to find these settings 60fps at 4k with a decent rig isnt hard to achieve at all.
I would love to know settings on these games to get constant 60fps at 4k. The one's benchmarked here I have issues with at 4k, even when lowering settings. I'm not saying you can't get there, avg fps seem to dictate you can, but there are just too many dips below 60 that ruin the experience. 1440 seems like the sweet spot.
Thanks for breaking the pervasive stupidity on 4k60 being impossible. I, too, have been playing latest gen titles, just removing or disabling the awful settings (motion blur, godrays, etc), and using medium settings on the two big performance hitters (shadows and AA), and the game still looks 90% as good with 50~60% more framerate.

Hexus have got a review with both the Radeon VII and the Vega 64.Orange_Swan - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link

The 2060Super is definitely worth the 30-50$ more it costs compared to the 2060.You get way higher performance in both frame rates and RTX.
You get

Crazy how 4k/60fps is still a dream even for a great gpu. Oh well, joy and fun still can be had in 1440 or 1080.Toss3 - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link

You know that you CAN tweak graphics settings in video games, you don't just have to choose between generic terms like "Ultra" and "High"Robs2010M6S - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - link
