So, looking at the new Strix 2060 for my first build. The overclocked card is sold out but advanced is still available. At this point, I'm not looking to do any extreme gaming or things of that nature, but for the $5 difference would it be worthwhile to wait until it comes back into stock and have that option available or just go with the advaced card?

What's the difference between the overclocked card and the advanced model???
I'd like to deploy my troops in her country.

On the overclock card, boost clock rated at 1830mhz where as the advaced card is 1740

And the difference is literally $5? You can Overclock it yourself to the same speed and keep $5 for cookies, or you can have it factory boosted and not have $5 for ice cream. This seems like a minor dilemma.

If the price difference is $50 the definitely get the cheaper card and tweak it yourself. Don't give these vultures any money they aren't already stealing from the consumer.

Better yet, get a Pascal card. The 1070 looks nice. And if priced reasonably get a 1070 Ti.
