MSI RTX 2060 for $250 or EVGA GTX 1080 Ti for $550

So I'm seeing a used MSI RTX 2060 for about $250 and an EVGA GTX 1080 Ti for $550. Which one should I get? I have an i7 8700k which I will be overclocking to 5GHz with my NZXT X53 cooler and I will be playing Warzone mostly and streaming it and I looked up some gameplay on YouTube and saw that the 1080 Ti was slightly better (talking about 40 more average fps). The 40 extra average fps is probably not worth to buy a $550 card over a $250 one. The prices in the pictures attached are different than what i mentioned above because this app taxes

Sounds to me like you already answered your question for yourself.

 

The 2060 was a somewhat unimpressive card but $250 isn't a bad price for it currently. The 1080 ti certainly won't perform twice as well considering the asking price is over 2x higher, and it's also two years older.

I was really thinking that. My main reason for even considering the 1080 Ti was because I recently changed my PC case to the Lian Li O11 Mini White (not Snow Edition) with white cable extensions and everything and the EVGA 1080 Ti would look much better in it than the MSI 2060. But I guess I shouldn't over spend THAT much just for aesthetic purposes.

The 2060 is decent but dont expect impressive fps above 1080 resolution. Especially with ray tracing enabled. Its good for gaming. Average for mining

 

Price wise its a no brainer. Get the 2060
