RTX 2060 at a glance

The RTX 2060 is based on the Turing architecture and is manufactured using the 12 nm process at TSMC. It ships with 6 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus , about 336 GB/s. Shader count is 1920 across 32 CU/SM. The board interface is PCIe 3.0 x16.

Reference board power is a moderate 160 W with 1x 8-pin. Final PSU and case requirements still depend on the specific partner card and the rest of the system.

VRAM capacity is budget at 6 GB. Keep settings and resolution in the same class as the silicon.

Best fit: Basic gaming or display workloads where price, compatibility, and power matter more than high settings.

Gaming performance

RTX 2060 is a budget gaming GPU, at 17.44% of the dataset’s best 1440p raster performance. Keep the rest of the build in the same class.

1440p value is excellent at 71.9 performance per dollar.
