About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2019. It is built on the Turing GPU microarchitecture (codename TU106) and is manufactured on a 12 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 2060 Mobile has 6 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 192 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 336 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RTX 2060 Mobile includes 1,920 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 960 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,200 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 120 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 48 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 240 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 30 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 115 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 2060 Mobile has the 108th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 20.33% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the NVIDIA GeForce 940MX GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce 940MX is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in 2016. It is built on the Maxwell GPU microarchitecture (codename GM108) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The 940MX has 1,024 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,253 MHz memory clock and a 64 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 40.1 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The 940MX includes 384 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 954 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 993 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 24 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 23 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The 940MX has the 322nd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 2.44% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
