RTX 2070 SUPER Review & Specifications

The RTX 2070 SUPER is based on the Turing architecture and manufactured using the 12 nm nm process node. It was launched approximately 7 years ago, originally priced at $499. It features 2560 cores, including 32 compute units (SMs), 160 texture mapping units (TMUs), and 64 render output units (ROPs). For ray tracing and AI-accelerated tasks, it also includes 40 dedicated RT cores and 320 Tensor cores, enabling advanced rendering and upscaling features where supported. It has a base clock of 1605 MHz and a boost clock reaching up to 1770 MHz. The RTX 2070 SUPER comes equipped with 8 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 256-bit bus. Memory runs at 1750 MHz and delivers a total memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s.

This GPU has a moderate thermal design power (TDP) of 215 W. A PC case with good airflow and a quality power supply are required for stable operation. Due to the moderate TDP, this GPU is suitable for small form factor builds with somewhat limited airflow.

RTX 2070 SUPER Performance

RTX 2070 SUPER is an entry-level graphics card with a relative gaming performance score of 29.39%. It performs well at 1080p and can handle 1440p with optimized settings or features like DLSS and FSR, though it's not suitable for 4K. Intended for for casual gamers or users who play occasionally on general-purpose PCs.

The RTX 2070 SUPER offers 8 GB of VRAM — a reasonable amount for its class. It performs well in 1080p gaming and modest 1440p workloads, though its lower compute performance may limit use of advanced settings or ray tracing. With support for DLSS, NVIDIA users can extend playability at higher resolutions. In creative tasks like photo editing or Full HD video, the GPU is adequate. Thanks to the NVIDIA ecosystem, this GPU is capable of basic AI experimentation, including inference with smaller models or quantized architectures — a good entry-level solution for developers interested in ML.

RTX 2070 SUPER provides excellent value at 69.0% efficiency. While its gaming performance is modest, it can still be a cost-effective solution for users with limited demands.
