About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q3 2019 with a MSRP of $399. It is built on the Turing GPU microarchitecture (codename TU106) and is manufactured on a 12 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 2060 SUPER has 8 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,750 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 448 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 SUPER includes 2,176 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,470 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,650 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 136 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 272 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 34 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RTX 2060 SUPER occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports DVI, HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4a, USB Type-C display connections. NVIDIA recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 175 W.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The RTX 2060 SUPER has the 75th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 28.36% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090. Its 29,668 score and $399 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 74.36. This is the 41st best in value for the 3DMark 11 Performance GPU benchmark.

About the NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 Max-Q GPU

The NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 Max-Q is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q2 2019. It is built on the Turing GPU microarchitecture (codename TU106) and is manufactured on a 12 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 3000 Max-Q has 6 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,500 MHz memory clock and a 192 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 288 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 3000 Max-Q includes 1,920 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 600 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,215 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 120 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 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 60 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 3000 Max-Q has the 129th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 16.75% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
