VIEW GALLERY - 49 IMAGES GIGABYTE kindly sent over their RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC and RTX 2070 SUPER GAMING OC graphics cards for review, with today's review looking at the RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING first thing that caught my eye with the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC is the dual-slot design, compared to the design on the higher-end RTX 2070 SUPER GAMING OC graphics card. I'm a big fan of performance in small packages, something GIGABYTE delivers here. As for pricing, I found the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC on Amazon for $ -- not bad at all, and in firing range of custom RX 5700 XT and custom RTX 2060 SUPER graphics cards. Detailed Specs GIGABYTE isn't doing much different here in terms of specs with its GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC, with the 8GB of GDDR6 clocked at its stock 14Gbps frequency (with some wiggle room with overclocking).We do have the GPU boost up to 1815MHz compared to the reference card at 1650MHz, while the display connectivity offers 3 x DP, 1 x HDMI, and 1 x VirtualLink USB Type-C connector. There is no SLI/NVLink available with the RTX 2060 SUPER (that's for the RTX 2070 SUPER/RTX 2080 SUPER and RTX 2080 Ti). Cooling Tech GIGABYTE uses its WindForce 3X cooling system on the RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC graphics card, with a triple-fan cooler that comes in a dual-slot graphics card. There's plenty going on under the hood of the WindForce 3X cooling system. GIGABYTE uses a metal backplate on the card, as well as heat sinks across the VRAM and MOSFETs, and "direct touch" on the Turing GPU itself. One of the more impressive things on the WindForce 3X cooling system are the alternative spinning fans. It wouldn't be a thing if there wasn't RGB lighting on the card, right? GIGABYTE doesn't over do it, though. Detailed Look This box is really eyeing you off, wanting you to buy it -- giving me some Transformers vibes. GIGABYTE has a plain look with its GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC graphics card, but I really like it. The company has its AORUS brand if it wants to go over the top, something I want to follow this review up with in the coming weeks. The backplate in question, again -- plain, no RGB lighting. If you just want the RTX 2060 SUPER performance without the bling, this is a card you should be looking at. Display connectivity consists of 3 x DP, 1 x HDMI, and 1 x VirtualLink. From the top of the card, you can see that it's a thin dual-slot card. GIGABYTE requires an 8+6-pin PCIe power connector setup on the RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC. Once again from the bottom. Test System Specs Our New GPU Test Rig Welcome to the latest revision of our GPU test bed, with our system being upgraded from the Intel Core i7-7700K to the Core i7-8700K. The CPU is cooled by the Corsair H115i PRO cooler, with the 8700K overclocked to 5GHz. We've stayed with GIGABYTE for our motherboard with their awesome Z370 AORUS Gaming 7. We approached our friends at HyperX for a kit of their kick ass HyperX Predator DDR4-2933MHz RAM (HX429C15PB3AK4/32), with 2 x 8GB sticks for a total of 16GB DDR4-2933. The RAM stands out through every minute of our testing as it has beautiful RGB lights giving the system a slick look while benchmarking our lives away, while the Z370 AORUS Gaming 7 motherboard joins in with its own array of RGB lighting.

Heaven - 1440p Heaven - 4K Synthetic Performance Thoughts Synthetic performance falls right in line with my expectations, with the GIGABYTE RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC beating NVIDIA's reference RTX 2060 SUPER by a couple of percentage points in all 3DMark runs. In the Heaven runs at 1080p we have a 6FPS increase (163FPS versus 169FPS), a smaller 4FPS increase from 103FPS to 107FPS at 1440p, and just 2FPS at 4K with 44FPS to of this, while quieter, and cooler than NVIDIA's own GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER Founders Edition.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider offers near identical performance at 4K to Far Cry New Dawn, with Shadow of the Tomb Raider cranking out 52FPS average on the GIGABYTE RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC. Thermals & Power Thermals GIGABYTE falls right in line with the custom GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and Radeon RX 5700 XT graphics cards with sub-70C temperatures. We have 69C with the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC under load, thanks to its triple-fan cooler and variable spinning fans keeping things quiet. Power Power consumption is where I expected: 310W in my Intel Core i7-8700K test bed under load. Final Thoughts GIGABYTE begins its RTX SUPER family of cards on the perfect footing, offering better-than-reference performance over NVIDIA's own GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER Founders Edition. All of it arrives in a dual-slot design that has impressive cooling chops that won't see your gaming PC turned into a wind turbine, blasting out copious amounts of noise. GIGABYTE has had great cooling on its cards for years now, with the WindForce 3X cooling system put to good use here on the RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING you're gaming on a 1080p or 1440p display with 120/144Hz and playing mostly esports games like Apex Legends, Overwatch, League of Legends, CS:GO and others -- then GIGABYTE has the card for you here. However, it will rock out at 1440p 60FPS on AAA titles as well if you adjust in-game detail levels, and hell even 4K 30-60FPS depending on the game and details won't regret the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER GAMING OC graphics card, especially if you're building a smaller mITX gaming build that needs a dual-slot graphics card. You wouldn't want to grab the RTX 2060 SUPER Founders Edition over this, as GIGABYTE keeps things much cooler and more importantly, GIGABYTE!

Our Verdict The GeForce RTX 2060 Super is a capable graphics card that nearly matches the performance of the RTX 2070 while shaving $100 off the price. For Good 1080p and 1440p performance Better value than other RTX cards 8GB GDDR6 beats the vanilla 2060 Against Not many ray tracing games Didn't inherit the 2060 price Super dull name The GeForce RTX 2060 Super comes nearly one year after Nvidia revealed its first GeForce RTX graphics cards. Not coincidentally—at all—AMD is slated to launch its new Radeon RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT cards on July 7. Slated to take on the existing RTX 2060 and RTX 2070, at roughly similar price points, AMD's RX 5700 GPUs and the Navi architecture could potentially close the gap with Nvidia. And so, Nvidia is launching a preemptive strike with the GeForce RTX 2060 Super and RTX 2070 Super, with an RTX 2080 Super coming later this month, all in the interest of staying at the top of the heap when it comes to the best graphics me just get this out of the way: I think the Super branding could quite possibly be one of the dumbest things I've seen in recent years. I'm definitely looking forward to the redundant naming that's bound to come from EVGA: the GeForce RTX 2060 Super SSC (Super Super Clocked)! But complaints about naming aside, we're looking at modestly improved core review will focus on the RTX 2060 Super, and Nvidia has provided its Founders Edition model, sporting reference clocks. A separate review covers the GeForce RTX 2070 Super, though it's in these charts as well. Here's what the current RTX lineup looks like with the addition of the 2060 and 2070 Super.(Image credit: Future)The Turing architecture behind the new Super RTX cards is identical to existing RTX cards. That means the hardware includes RT cores for DirectX Raytracing (DXR) and Vulkan-RT, Tensor cores for DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) and other machine learning workloads, variable rate shading, mesh shaders, and concurrent integer and floating-point execution pipelines. Even if paper specs might not always look like a big jump over the previous generation GTX 10-series cards, the GeForce RTX cards make better use of their 2060 Super uses the same TU106 GPU that's in the RTX 2060 and 2070, but it's closer to the 2070 than the 2060. It has 8GB of GDDR6, which means 33 percent more bandwidth—the same as the 2070 as well as the 2070 Super. The TU106 has up to 36 SMs (Streaming Multiprocessors), and the 2060 Super has 34 enabled. That puts it right between the two previous cards, while the new 2070 Super gets a TU104 GPU with 40 SMs enabled—basically, a small step down from the vanilla RTX are slightly lower than the RTX 2060, but the extra cores and memory should deliver a substantial boost in performance. The RTX 2070 meanwhile still has a few more CUDA cores, and depending on what particular graphics card model you're looking at the clockspeed is either slightly lower or slightly higher than the 2060 Super. For our testing, we're using the Founders Edition models of all the RTX graphics cards, which means the 2070 FE is clocked higher than the 2060 Super (the reference 2070 has a 1620MHz boost clock).In terms of performance expectations, the RTX 2060 Super should be just a tad slower than the reference RTX 2070, but it should also be quite a big jump in performance over the vanilla RTX 2060. The pricing reflects this, with the new RTX 2060 Super selling for $399 while the RTX 2060 will continue to be sold for $349. That price makes this one of the best graphics cards in terms of value. The new RTX 2070 Super meanwhile takes over the $499 price point—and that includes the Founders Edition model.(Image credit: Nvidia)Our gaming benchmarks continue to use a Core i7-8700K overclocked to to ensure the CPU isn't a bottleneck in our testing. We also use DDR4-3200 memory and fast SSD storage. We've benchmarked using the latest drivers available at the time of testing, including retesting older GPUs to ensure our results are up to date. All Nvidia GPUs were tested with the drivers, except for the two Super cards which used (because there's simply not enough hours in the day to retest every GPU with the launch drivers Nvidia provided). For AMD, we used also updated our gaming benchmarks since last year, though for purposes of this review we're not enabling ray tracing in any of the games—AMD doesn't have any support for DXR (DirectX Raytracing) or Vulkan-RT right now, and probably won't until next year. The same goes for testing with DLSS. We have looked at ray tracing (and DLSS) performance in the major games already and will continue to do so as new games arrive, but we want to show apples-to-apples comparisons for our graphics card doesn't mean ray tracing support doesn't matter. Over the past ten months we've seen three major games deliver ray tracing support (Battlefield V, Metro Exodus, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider), plus there's Quake 2 RTX and the Korean MMO Justice, and more games are coming. Wolfenstein: Youngblood will be the next one at the end of this month, with Control in August, Mechwarrior 5 Mercenaries in September, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare in October, and Doom Eternal in 2077 will support DXR (Image credit: CD Projekt Red)Are any of those games important enough to want an RTX card? Perhaps, perhaps not. Looking to 2020, Vampire: the Masquerade—Bloodlines 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 next year are certainly higher up my list of games I'm excited to play, and there's also Watch Dogs: Legion, Atomic Heart, and more. The current handful of games that support ray tracing hardware nine months after software support arrived might not seem like much, but for the record, there are already more games using DXR less than one year after its release than there were games using DX12 one year after it became our GPU benchmarks, we have 11 games that we're currently testing, including a pretty even mix of AMD and Nvidia promoted titles. DirectX 12 is utilized in most cases, with the exception of Total War: Warhammer where the "DX12 Beta" performance is particularly weak on Nvidia GPUs. Some of Nvidia's previous generation GPUs like the GTX 970 and GTX 1060 3GB are also tested with DX11 in a few games, as DX12 tends to work best with Nvidia GPUs that have more than 4GB card is tested at four settings: 1080p medium (or equivalent) and 1080p/1440p/4k ultra (unless otherwise noted). Every setting is tested multiple times to ensure the consistency of the results, and we use the best score. Minimum FPS is calculated by summing all frametimes above the 97 percentile and dividing by the number of frames, so that it gives a reasonable representation of the lower end of the performance scale, rather than looking only at the single worst framerate from a benchmark run. Here are the results, starting with 1080p. The RTX 2060 Super works best as a card for 1080p or 1440p gaming. 4K is often possible at lower quality settings (or with DLSS), but more demanding games like Metro tend to be a bit out of RTX 2060 Super performance1080p medium might seem like an awfully low bar to clear for a $400 graphics card, but keep in mind that ultra-responsive 144Hz gaming often requires lower the resolution and settings even with high-end hardware. Most of the games in our test suite get there, though the most demanding games (Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Metro Exodus, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider) fall well performance is right where you'd expect it to be based on the specs. The RTX 2060 Super outperforms the RTX 2060 by 10 percent and nearly matches the RTX ultra at 60fps or more typically isn't a problem with any of the high-end graphics cards, but if you own a 144Hz display only one of the 11 games tested actually breaks 144fps (Fortnite). All of the games still average 60fps or more, though Metro Exodus is tested using the high preset (not that the ultra preset really looks all that different considering the drop in framerate).Again, the 2060 Super is a nice 11 percent performance upgrade over the vanilla 2060. Looking at the Vega 56 and 64, AMD's upcoming RX 5700 and 5700 XT now have a new target to hit. We'll find out on July 7 exactly how AMD does against the new GPU pitches the RTX 2060 Super as a graphics card built for 1440p gaming, and provided we're talking about 60fps it does generally succeed. A couple of games (Assassin's Creed and Metro Exodus) don't average 60fps or more, but tweaking the settings can get the higher resolution, the added memory bandwidth thanks to the additional 2GB of GDDR6 start to show up more when comparing the 2060 Super with the regular RTX 2060. Now the gap is 15 percent on average, with a few games showing even larger quick note on overclockingDue to time constraints and travel, we were not able to investigate overclocking in time for this initial review. I will update this section with additional details once I get a chance to catch my breath … but that probably won't be before next week, since AMD has a pile of new 7nm products all launching on July 7. Pray for 4K ultra isn't generally what we recommend for the best gaming experience, since it's extremely demanding and even the fastest GPUs often come up short, but if you want to see how games several years from now might perform at 1080p ultra, it's perhaps a taste of things to framerates across the test suite are now well below 60, and the 2070 FE continues to hold on to about a 5 percent performance lead, but the 2060 Super really blows the RTX 2060 out of the water this round, with a 21 percent overall lead. That's because games like Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Far Cry 5, Fortnite, and Shadow of War all strongly favor the additional memory bandwidth the 2060 Super provides.(Image credit: Nvidia)GeForce RTX 2060 Super: high-end performance is now more affordableMany felt underwhelmed by Nvidia's RTX 20-series launch—or overwhelmed by the comparatively high pricing. With no games leveraging the new ray tracing hardware at launch, and no cryptocurrency miner demand to clear inventory, sales weren't as good as Nvidia hoped. One year later, things are improving, and the 2060 Super is perhaps the best of the RTX line in terms of bang for the buck. But it's still not an awesome value if you're only looking at GPU price vs. performance—though things are better if you're looking at total system are two ways of looking at the RTX 2060 Super, and how you ultimately feel about the new graphics card will depend on which perspective you take. One view is that it's a slightly faster card than the RTX 2060 and it costs $50 more. That's not super exciting. The other perspective is much more enticing: it's effectively replacing the RTX 2070 level of performance for $100 less. (Again, keep in mind that our performance charts use an overclocked 2070 FE, while the 2060 Super uses reference clocks.)While cards like the RX 570 are an amazing value given their current clearance pricing, it's important to remember that the 570 is typically best when playing games at 1080p and medium or high quality. The 2060 Super may cost three times as much, but it's also nearly twice as fast, and it's far more capable of running games at higher framerates and higher you haven't felt the need to jump on the ray tracing RTX bandwagon yet, the 2060 Super isn't likely to change your mind. It's arguably more a question of getting the killer ray tracing app than the hardware, though. Metro Exodus looks better with ray traced global illumination, but it still looks good without it. Until a game comes out that looks so amazing with ray tracing that everyone wants to upgrade, RTX is more of a nice extra than a must-have feature. And maybe it will remain that way for years to RTX 2060 Super is still a good card. It's faster than a GTX 1080 at a lower price, with new features that may benefit future games. We wouldn't recommend upgrading from a GTX 1080 to an RTX 2060 Super, but if you're running an older GPU and are looking to spend $300 or more on a high-end graphics card, it's a worthy pick. And it makes the prospect of buying AMD's RX 5700 series more back on Sunday (July 7) and we'll see how AMD's newcomers fare against Nvidia's new Super heroes. The GeForce RTX 2060 Super and 2070 Super officially go on sale on July 9.

When Nvidia's original GeForce RTX 2060 launched in January of this year, many were left scratching their heads at why the card existed in the first place. Until today, it was the latest RTX-family graphics card to be released by the company, hitting shelves almost five months after the initial RTX launch. Now, six months later, we have the release of the $399 Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super, a midrange card that offers above-average performance combined with a competitive price point. It's a strong contender in its price zone, though in some scenarios, saving $120 or so and opting for a card based on the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti makes more sense, depending on the types of gaming you plan to do after your next card upgrade or PC build. Nvidia Swings for the (AAA League) Bleachers We've already published a breakdown of the the full situation surrounding the announcement and launch of Super cards in our review of the GeForce RTX 2070 Super, but as a brief recap: This card shares much in common, on a specifications level, with the original GeForce RTX 2070. Though Nvidia would not verify my theory, it's likely that this card is based on the same die as that (non-Super) GeForce RTX 2070, just using versions stepped down a bit due to silicon yields. Under that theory, the RTX 2060 Super would be based on the original RTX 2070, and the RTX 2070 Super on the original RTX 2080. You Can Trust Our Reviews Again: This is an educated guess based on the specs of the cards involved. Now, this is common practice in the CPU and GPU world, and not a bad thing by any means. Manufacturing CPUs or GPUs inevitably means ending up with some samples that outperform, some that nail the expected spec, and some that don't quite reach it. That may well be what's at play here, with Nvidia getting different yields from its GPUs that it was a year ago. And that may be giving it more flexibility in how to market and produce its RTX line. Similar Products That's good, given the current state of play. The original RTX 2060 was a fine card, but it had a bit of an identity problem, especially once the GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, which came later, debuted. That's mainly because many buyers and industry followers strained to see the point in including ray-tracing (RT) cores—one of the key elements that set the RTX cards apart—on a card that wouldn't be able to handle ray tracing at 60 frames per second (fps) or more in the first place, Nvidia's DLSS tech notwithstanding. As of July 2019, the Steam Hardware Survey(Opens in a new window) says that only a minute percent of those who report into the pool are using an RTX 2060, and it's to be expected that an even smaller segment of those users actually try to activate ray tracing on the limited number of games it's currently available in. The RTX 2070, on the other hand, is just powerful enough to work as both a AAA workhorse with an ordinary 60Hz monitor and a card that will keep your high-refresh-rate monitor happy, too, with esports titles. So if the RTX 2060 Super actually is just a slightly restrained RTX 2070, then its $399 price might make it worth the cost to anyone who was on the fence until now. Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs. Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 The only way you can really gain a sense of context for the Super line is to see the specs of these cards side-by-side with the other card they're coming from or moving into the zone of. So here, for starters, is the new RTX 2060 Super up against the last-gen RTX 2070... The numbers speak for themselves: If you run one stable overclock on this card (like I managed to do, as I'll discuss later on in this review), there's almost nothing stopping you from turning your RTX 2060 Super into a card that's very much a GeForce RTX 2070 impersonator. Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs. Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Then there's this comparison, something of an RTX 2060 before-and-after snapshot. The card in the left column is the suggested reference version of the original RTX 2060, which started in third-party cards at $349 and will stay on the market alongside the RTX 2060 Super, according to Nvidia... Looking at past and present specs, the argument that the RTX 2060 Super is derived from the stock RTX 2060 looks wafer-thin, no pun intended. The RTX 2060 Super is built on the TU106-410-A1 die, while the RTX 2070 runs off the TU106-400A-A1 die. They both use 175 watts of power through one eight-pin connector, both feature identical transistor counts, and they have identical memory-bus widths/bandwidth caps. Now, Nvidia notes that these are not the same die, and that the RTX 2060 Super, RTX 2070 Super, and RTX 2080 Super all represent improvements to their own die classes. Whatever the actual manufacturing nitty-gritty and GPU geneaology here, it's clear that given the spec-out, the RTX 2060 Super is much closer kin to an original RTX 2070 than to the original RTX 2060. Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super vs. Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti At $399, the GeForce RTX 2060 Super hovers in the high end of what esports-focused cards should cost, while the $ GeForce GTX 1660 Ti seems to hit a sweet spot that focuses all of Turing's benefits directly into high-refresh gaming applications, for folks for whom that's the key concern. Here, you see quite a bit of differences in specs to note, the most obvious of which in the GTX 1660 Ti are the lesser power requirements, the lower CUDA processor count, and (not charted) the complete lack of RT or Tensor cores. In the GTX 1660 Ti, Nvidia shaved off a lot of capabilities from its lowest-end RTX card to tackle the lightweight division in GPUs, but, for the most part, it whipped up a strong recommendation for anyone shopping for strong 1080p high-refresh esports gaming performance in a card under $300. Mirror, Mirror on the Card, Who's Fastest of Them All? Feel like you saw this card somewhere else before? You might be one of the few people that ever got hands on the RTX 2060 Founders Edition before it went out of stock after just a few weeks on sale. Indeed, the RTX 2060 Founders Edition might have also been one of the lowest stock runs of any graphics card in recent memory. If you blinked, you missed it, though RTX 2060 cards from Nvidia's partner card makers are available in abundance at this writing. I'd say that the Supers share with the original RTX Founders Edition cards some of the classiest card chassis in the business now or in any year... The solid, almost-gunmetal-gray shell is accented this time around with a shiny mirror panel between the fans, complete with a green badge that denotes this card's "super" capabilities. The card is also one of only two in the official Nvidia RTX line to use an end-outward-facing power connector. Note: The RTX 2060 Super requires an eight-pin connector, while the original RTX 2060 only needed a six-pin. The card features two DisplayPort outs, one HDMI out, one DVI-D out, and one USB-C/VirtualLink, with the last port designed for future VR headsets. The DVI-D could be a pleasant surprise if you have an older, but beloved, 60Hz monitor, as the port has been mostly supplanted these days by HDMI and DisplayPort on higher-end video cards due to its resolution limitations. Testing: For the Moment, Nvidia vs. Nvidia PC Labs ran the RTX 2060 Super card through a series of DirectX 11- and 12-based synthetic and real-world benchmarks. Our test rig is equipped with an Intel Core i7-8700K processor, 16GB of DDR4 memory, a solid-state boot drive, and an Aorus Z370 Gaming 7 motherboard. For our benchmark results, we wanted to focus some of our efforts on the esports abilities of this card, but we also ran it through the rest of our standard benchmarks, which test a card's abilities to handle AAA games at the highest possible quality settings. Synthetic Benchmarks 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra Synthetic benchmarks can be good predictors of real-world gaming performance. Futuremark's circa-2013 Fire Strike Ultra is still a go-to for simulating 4K-based gaming. We're looking only at the test's Graphics Subscore (which isolates the GPU's contribution), not the Overall Score. Here, the GeForce RTX 2060 Super holds strong against any other boards that come close in price, a trend that will continue throughout the rest of the benches. 3DMark Time Spy and Time Spy Extreme This is Futuremark's DirectX 12-enabled benchmark for predicting the performance of DirectX 12-enabled games. It uses major features of the API, including asynchronous compute, explicit multi-adapter, and multi-threading. In this trial, the RTX 2060 Super actually beats the MSI GeForce RTX 2070 Armor, and comes within 13 percent of the RTX 2070 Super on Time Spy Extreme. Unigine Superposition Our last synthetic benchmark is Unigine's 2017 release, Superposition. This benchmark does incorporate ray tracing, but it's done in software, not hardware, and thus doesn't utilize the ray-tracing (RT) cores of the RTX 20 series. This is a test that generally shows why you might want a card like the RTX 2070 Super over a GTX 1660 Ti or RTX 2060 Super if you just bought a new 60Hz 4K gaming monitor. Real-World Gaming The following benchmarks are games that you can actually play. The charts themselves detail the settings we used (typically the highest in-game preset and, if available, DirectX 12). A quick note: Though most of our game tests are maxed out in graphical fidelity to push the cards to their limit, multiplayer gaming is all about maintaining the best balance between graphical fidelity and frame rate. As such, we've kept the test sequences for Apex Legends, CS:GO, and Rainbow Six: Siege tuned to the best combination of necessary improvements in settings (higher anti-aliasing and lower shadows, for example), while still trying to keep frame rates for 1080p games above that coveted 120Hz or 144Hz mark for high-refresh monitors. Playing at the more common 60Hz is a cinch with these games using a card of this caliber. Rise of the Tomb Raider The 2015 predecessor to Shadow of the Tomb Raider is still a great benchmark. In AAA gaming, the RTX 2060 Super, like the original, is not made for smooth 60fps 4K play, but neither is any other card at or below the $400 mark. Far Cry 5 and Far Cry Primal The fourth and fifth installments in the Far Cry series are based on DirectX 11, but still looping the benchmark charts together here since the games play out similarly in a relative sense. Here is where things got surprising. Not only was the RTX 2060 Super keeping up with the RTX 2070 Super, it almost outpaced an MSI RTX 2080 Gaming X Trio PC Labs tested (not charted here). Final Fantasy XV We'll take a respite from frame-rate-based benchmarks for a moment to look at Final Fantasy XV. Here the RTX 2060 Super fell back in line with its spec, despite losing a few battles to the MSI 2070 Armor in a few key resolutions by small measures. Legacy Games These three games still offer a AAA gaming experience, despite being more than a few years old by this point. The legacy tests include runs of Hitman: Absolution, Tomb Raider (2013), and Bioshock: Infinite, the last being a game that no one asked to be still as well-optimized as it is in 2019. Here the RTX 2060 Super was just barely bested by the RTX 2070 on Hitman, but overtook it completely by the time Bioshock: Infinite benches were plugged in. World of Tanks Encore This is another non-fps-based benchmark that's available as a free download. It's not super-demanding, but it's still a reliable test. Razor-thin wins for the 2060 Super over MSI's 2070 here, but clear gains over the GTX 1660 Ti too. The GTX 1660 Ti will prove itself to be a situational pickup later in this bout. Apex Legends Apex Legends is the newest, most exciting battle royale on the planet, and it's gaining adherents by the millions. These numbers may be a bit deceiving, as Apex is one of a few multiplayer titles that is seeing constant improvement and optimization over the months, while also uncapping the limiter that kept even the fastest cards locked to 144fps maximum. Because the game is based on the Source engine (known for its optimization in games like the one mentioned below), we'd imagine Apex Legends will only continue to get faster in weaker cards as the months and years wear on. Counter Strike: Global Offensive Speaking of one of the oldest, yet still most popular, online games around the globe, Counter Strike: Global Offensive is the latest in a long line of titles that have changed almost nothing about their core gameplay since 1999...and gamers wouldn't have it any other way. The engine is considered one of the best optimized in all of PC gaming, which makes it easy to see major gaps in any one card's abilities versus another's. Though the RTX 2060 Super takes a win over the GTX 1660 Ti here, it doesn't do so by a margin that's meaningful for each resolution. The GTX 1660 Ti can still do CS:GO at above 240Hz in 1080p, 165Hz in 1440p, and 144Hz in 4K. In theory you could spend $899 on an Acer Predator XB3 monitor, plus another $279 on this GTX 1660 Ti or a similar one, and still be able to run CS:GO in 4K at 144Hz without an issue. Rainbow Six: Siege Finally, there's Rainbow Six: Siege. Despite the game languishing in bugs and server problems during its first year, Ubisoft has worked hard on its competitor to CS:GO to make it one of the most-played games on the Steam platform, with 45 million players and growing as of early 2019. Here's where things get confusing. The MSI GTX 1660 Ti Gaming X 6G, despite being $120 cheaper than the RTX 2070 Super, actually beats it in all three resolutions on this game. The Super also scores lower than its non-Super counterpart, despite my testing it through five runs on 1440p. This might just be an early-driver issue that will get shaken out by release, and we'll come back to test if any differences are noticed in the future. Ray Tracing & Overclocking When in-game ray tracing first hit the scene, a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti could barely stomach delivering fast enough frame rates at high resolutions and detail settings, let alone a card as low on the Turing totem pole as the RTX 2060. The story remains much the same here, save for a few edge cases. When I pushed the card through our Shadow of the Tomb Raider test with both ray tracing and DLSS turned on, the card comfortably kept above 60fps at 1440p, but dipped into the 50fps range once we moved up to 4K. That's a fine showing if you're not dead-set on 60fps at 4K. I then turned to some overclocking. During my trials of the GeForce RTX 2060 Super, I found that the card was able to withstand a threshold of 175Hz on the boost clock speed, and 450MHz of boost on the memory clocks, which represents about a 10 percent increase overall. This was very similar to the overclocking overhead I observed with the RTX 2070 Super. During these tests, the RTX 2060 Super both met and exceeded the numbers set by the original RTX 2070 by just around 10 percent, proving further that if you want a card that is in essence the equivalent of a discounted last-generation ( non-Super) RTX 2070, you might get something even a little better with the RTX 2060 Super, as long as you're comfortable with the tweakage required by overclocking your card. A Peek at the Heat RTX cards have never been known for their extreme heat efficiency, given that each die contains three separate kinds of cores running complex processes right next to each other. But we were pleasantly surprised to see that even during a 10-minute stress test of the 3DMark Port Royal benchmark, the RTX 2060 Super never poked above 74 degrees C. Then we ran our FLIR imaging test... This is an unscientific look, but with the side of the chassis off, nearly all the heat generated by the GPU was being wicked off by the backplate, and while a small amount emanated around the card, a good amount also passed through the vents located on the card's backplane, facing out of the case. I saw a similar scheme on the RTX 2070 Super, which suggests that both cards may have seen an upgrade to their cooling systems underneath this shroud. An RTX 2070 by Any Other Name... As I mentioned in my review of the RTX 2070 Super, offering better performance at a lower cost by whatever means is always a winner. Nvidia is still proving it can compete on price when it wants to, or is forced to; AMD's first "Navi" cards roll out this coming weekend. And the Nvidia card-partner ecosystem has proven that it offers a wide enough variety of options that almost no gamer has an excuse to pass up, depending on the amount he or she has to spend on a new PC upgrade. In the RTX 2060 Super, Nvidia is offering a healthy enough upgrade from the RTX 2060, even if nothing revolutionary is at play under the card shroud. It's a price play, plain and simple. But what the RTX 2060 Super offers most of all is a greater variety of choice in the RTX market, with more mid-level enthusiast cards that won't break the bank. Who knows? The rollout of the RTX 2060 Super might well eventually push down the prices of partner-card non-Super RTX 2060 cards a bit to create some daylight between. Of course, then, you have the GTX 1660 Ti to contend with. And if you want a card that shaves off everything you don't need simply to hit above 100fps in 1080p on titles like Rainbow Six: Siege or CS:GO, the GTX 1660 Ti is more than enough to handle your needs. But the RTX 2060 Super has its niche. If you want something slightly more expensive that can comfortably play a good number of AAA games at 4K and 60Hz, costs bit less than the RTX 2070 did at launch, and can ray-trace at lower resolutons, then the RTX 2060 Super is an attractive new entry into the increasingly crowded midrange-card stakes. And when AMD rolls out its Radeon RX 5700 XT and Radeon RX 5700 in a few days, we'll see just how crowded the top picks in this market segment is. Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super Pros Strong results in high-refresh gaming and 1440p. Competitively priced. Highly attractive card build. DVI port for legacy monitors. View More Cons Not powerful enough to handle all AAA games at higher resolutions. The Bottom Line Nvidia's GeForce RTX 2060 Super straddles the fine line between a video card made for esports and one for AAA gaming performance, and delivers consistently on each side where it matters most.

Integrated with 6GB GDDR6 192-bit memory interface. WINDFORCE 2X Cooling System with alternate spinning fans. 90mm unique blade fans. Protection back plate. Core Clock. 1755 MHz (Reference card: 1680 MHz) GeForce RTX 3060 to najnowsze karty graficzne, które mają zapewniać dobrą wydajność w najnowszych tytułach. Udało nam się zebrać i przetestować pięć różnych modeli. Który z nich okaże się najlepszym wyborem? Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Dual OC Pierwsza z kart ma dwa 90 mm wentylatory, które odpowiadają za jej chłodzenie. Oferują one półpasywne chłodzenie, więc w spoczynku na pewno grafiki nie usłyszycie. Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Dual OC w obudowie z oknem raczej zniknie. Karta jest prawie cała czarna i ma małe białe czy szare wstawki. Jest też małe podświetlenie z boku, ale jest ono praktycznie niewidzialne. Oczywiście nie zabrakło też backplate. Grafika jest bardzo krótka – jej wymiary to 200 mm x 123 mm x 38 mm. Jest to więc najmniejsza konstrukcja w naszym zestawieniu i znakomicie powinna sprawdzić się np. w mini PC. Zasilana jest z jednego złącza 8 pin, które umieszczone jest na samym końcu. Dostępne wyjścia obrazu to HDMI i 3x DisplayPort Karta jest też fabrycznie podkręcona – taktowanie boost wynosi 1837 MHz. Natomiast trochę gorzej wygląda to w przypadku benchmarku Metro Exodus 2560 x 1440 px. Tutaj grafika osiągnęła średnie taktowanie równe ok. 1870 MHz, czyli najmniejsze spośród testowanych GeForce RTX 3060. Należy się więc spodziewać, że nie będzie to najwydajniejszy model w zestawieniu. Odnośnie tej grafiki mam jeszcze jedną uwagę – nie pochodzi ona od Asusa. Dostaliśmy ją do testów z prywatnego źródła. Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming OC 12G Kolejna karta to już konstrukcja mająca trzy 80 mm wentylatory. Oferują one tryb półpasywny, więc ponownie w spoczynku możecie liczyć na ciszę. Karta nie wygląda zbyt okazale. Jest szaro-czarna, jednakże nie zabrakło backplate. Z boku znajduje się podświetlane logo Gigabyte, ale ponownie jak u Asusa – uważam, że całość raczej zniknie w obudowie z oknem i zbytnio nie będzie się wyróżniała. Karta ma wymiary 282 mm x 117 mm x 41 mm. Ciekawą sprawą jest długość. Dosyć dużo mniejszych obudów ogranicza długość grafiki do 290 mm, więc testowany model bez problemów powinien się w nich zmieścić. Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming OC 12G zasilany jest z jednego złącza 8 pin, a dostępne wyjścia obrazu to 2x HDMI oraz 2x DisplayPort Grafika została fabrycznie podkręcona, a jej taktowanie boost jest takie samo jak wyżej, czyli wynosi 1837 MHz. Jednakże w benchmarku Metro Exodus 2560 x 1440 px osiąga ona średnio 1920 MHz, czyli powinny już występować różnice w stosunku do modelu Asusa. KFA2 GeForce RTX 3060 EX (1-Click OC) Model od KFA2 ma dosyć mocne podświetlenie RGB. Znajduje się ono na bocznym napisie oraz na samych wentylatorach. Producent dodaje kabel 4 pin RGB, który można podłączyć do płyty głównej i dzięki temu łatwo całością sterować. Natomiast mam tutaj kilka uwag. Szkoda, że nie jest to podświetlenie ARGB, które było by jeszcze efektowniejsza. Druga sprawa to boczny napis „What’s Your Game?”. Znajduje się on na praktycznie wszystkich grafikach KFA2 i kompletnie on do mnie nie przemawia. Mimo to uważam, że grafika będzie bardzo dobrze wyglądała w obudowie z oknem. Dajcie jednak znać w komentarzach czy również uważacie, iż ten napis powinien w końcu zniknąć. Za chłodzenie odpowiadają dwa 102 mm wentylatory. Nie zabrakło tutaj trybu półpasywnego, który jak widać jest już praktycznie standardem. Grafika zasilana jest z jednego złącza 8 pin. Jej dokładne wymiary to 285 mm x 124 mm x 50 mm (bez śledzia PCI). Grafika powinna wejść do większości obudów midi tower dostępnych na rynku. Dostępne wyjścia obrazu to HDMI i 3x DisplayPort KFA2 GeForce RTX 3060 EX (1-Click OC) to model fabrycznie podkręcony – zegar boost wynosi 1807 MHz. Jednakże dzięki oprogramowaniu Xtreme Tuner Plus możecie je łatwo zwiększyć o jeszcze 15 MHz. Testy przeprowadziłem jednak bez instalacji software. W benchmarku Metro Exodus 2560 x 1440 px karta osiągała średnie taktowanie równe ok. 1890 MHz. MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio Grafika od MSI to zdecydowanie największy i najcięższy model w teście. Ma on nawet dołączony holder, który w przypadku RTX 3060 rzadko się pojawia. Jej dokładne wymiary to 323 mm x 140 mm x 56 mm. Musicie tutaj uważać na długość, bowiem karta nie zmieści się w wielu tańszych obudowach. Za chłodzenie odpowiadają trzy wentylatory TORX Fan które ponownie pracują półpasywnie. Grafika wygląda naprawdę nieźle. Z boku znajduje się pasek ARGB, podświetlane jest też logo MSI oraz miejsca obok wentylatorów. Dorzućcie do tego czarny, elegancki backplate i otrzymujecie jedną z najładniejszych grafik na rynku. Karta zasilana jest z dwóch złączy 8 pin oraz ma następujące wyjścia obrazu: HDMI oraz 3x DisplayPort MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio to również podkręcony model. Zegary boost wynoszą 1852 MHz. W benchmarku Metro Exodus 2560 x 1440 px karta ma średnie taktowanie równe ok. 1907 MHz. Co ciekawe zegary wskazują, że nie będzie to najwydajniejszy model w zestawieniu. ZOTAC GeForce RTX 3060 AMP White Edition Ostatni z omawianych modeli to także jedna z nielicznych białych kart na rynku. Mowa tutaj zarówno o chłodzeniu jak i backplate. Z boku znajduje się też podświetlane na białe logo (tutaj mała uwaga – ciekawym pomysłem było by podświetlenie ARGB zamiast stałego). Całość wygląda bardzo dobrze i w białych zestawach komputerowych zdecydowanie może dobrze pasować do reszty podzespołów. Dokładne wymiary karty to 231,9 mm x 141,3 mm x 41,5 mm. Jest to więc stosunkowo krótka konstrukcja, ale na pewno jest dosyć szeroka. Zasilana jest ona z dwóch złączy 8 pin. Tutaj warto zwrócić uwagę, że są one umieszczone na wcięciu w chłodzeniu. Przypięcie kabli jest bardzo irytujące i jeśli robicie to raz to jeszcze to przeżyjecie, ale jeśli często wyjmujecie kartę to na pewno będzie Was to irytowało. Za chłodzenie odpowiadają dwa wentylatory – 90 mm i 100 mm. Ponownie obecny jest pasywny tryb pracy w spoczynku. Producent zastosował następujące wyjścia obrazu: HDMI oraz 3x DisplayPort Co ciekawe ZOTAC GeForce RTX 3060 AMP White Edition to najmocniej podkręcona karta w zestawieniu. Zegary boost wynoszą 1867 MHz, a w benchmarku Metro Exodus w rozdzielczości 2560 x 1440 px taktowanie średnio wynosi ok. 1945 MHz. Możemy więc tutaj liczyć na najlepsze wyniki w grach. Porównanie specyfikacji testowanych modeli GeForce RTX 3060 W celu porównania podstawowych parametrów kart stworzyłem powyższą tabelkę. Największy model to zdecydowanie MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio. Potrzebujecie do niej obudowy mieszczącej największe grafiki na rynku. Po drugiej stronie jest model Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Dual OC, który spokojnie powinien wejść nawet do mini PC. Stosunkowo krótki jest też model od ZOTACa, ale jest on najszerszy z testowanych grafik co trzeba mieć na uwadze w szczególności przy małych obudowach. Konfiguracja złączy obrazu jest w większości modeli taka sama. Wyróżnia się jedynie Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming OC 12G, który ma dwa złącza HDMI i DisplayPort. W przypadku złączy zasilania to modele od MSI i ZOTACa wymagają dwóch złączy 8 pin – pozostałe pozostały przy jednym. Rekomendowany zasilacz jest różny w zależności od modelu. Największy podaje Asus, ale jest to zdecydowanie przesada. Dobrej jakości 550 W konstrukcja powinna tak naprawdę wystarczyć Wam do każdego z testowanych modeli. Każda z kart jest fabrycznie podkręcona i teoretycznie najmniej jest model od KFA2. Jednakże taktowanie w benchmarku Metro Exodus w rozdzielczości 2560 x 1440 px pokazuje, że najsłabszym modelem może być ten od Asusa. Po drugiej stronie znajduje się ZOTAC i plasujący się z anim Gigabyte. MSI powinien się znaleźć w samym środku stawki. Wykorzystane sterowniki: GTX 1650, GTX 1660 SUPER, GTX 1660 Ti, RTX 2060, RTX 2060 SUPER, RTX 2070, RTX 2070 SUPER, RTX 2080, RTX 2080 SUPER, RTX 2080 Ti: Nvidia 3080: Nvidia 3090: Nvidia 3070: Nvidia 3060 Ti: Nvidia 3060: Nvidia 5500 XT: AMD 6800 XT: AMD 6700 XT: AMD Platforma testowaProcesorIntel Core i9-10900K @ 5,1 GHzChłodzenieCooler Master MasterLiquid ML360R RGBPłyta głównaASRock Z490 TaichiKarta graficznaGigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Gaming OC 8GPamięć RAMKingston Predator 4x 8 GB 3000 MHzDyskAORUS NVMe Gen4 SSD 1 TBDyskSamsung 970 Evo NVMe 1 TBZasilaczFSP Aurum PT 1000WObudowaSilentiumPC Signum SG7V TG Testy w rozdzielczości 1920 x 1080 Wszystkie modele GeForce RTX 3060 zapewniają średnio powyżej 60 fps w rozdzielczości Full HD. Wyniki nie są jednak imponująco wysokie. Karty plasują się średnio powyżej podkręconego RTX 2060 SUPER, choć i tutaj znajdują się wyjątki. W niektórych tytułach starsza grafika potrafi wyprzedzić mniej podkręcone modele albo nawet i wszystkie karty RTX 3060. Testowane kart są też sporo słabsze od RTX 3060 Ti – tutaj różnice mają już duże znaczenie. Testy w rozdzielczości 2560 x 1440 W kolejnej rozdzielczości jest już znacznie słabiej. Pojawiają się już cztery gry, w których średnia ilość fps w przypadku każdej z RTX 3060 jest mniejsza niż 60. Tytuły te nadal powinny być grywalne, ale nie osiągniecie tej ważnej dla wielu graczy ilości klatek na sekundę. Oczywiście zawsze można obniżyć detale, ale jeśli chcecie grać na najwyższych lub prawie najwyższych to warto pomyśleć nad inwestycję w RTX 3060 Ti (choć przy obecnych dostępnościach i cenach może to nie mieć i tak zbytnio sensu). Testy w rozdzielczości 3840 x 2160 W ostatniej z rozdzielczości jedynie w F1 2020 zanotowałem powyżej 60 fps. Niestety w 3840 x 2160 px RTX 3060 kompletnie się nie sprawdza i część gier na maksymalnych detalach będzie niegrywalna. Nie ma jednak co się dziwić – grafika nie została stworzona pod 4K i zanotowane wyniki nie powinny nikogo z Was dziwić. Temperatury Każda z kart ma tryb półpasywny i w spoczynku notują one podobne wyniki. Natomiast pod obciążeniem robi się już spora różnica. Najlepiej wypada MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio, ale tu nie ma co się dziwić – grafika ma największe chłodzenie. Tak naprawdę jedynie powyżej 70°C u Asusa jest trochę zbyt dużym wynikiem, pozostałe karty są w całkowitej normie. Dodam jeszcze, że obciążenia dokonałem poprzez odpalenie FurMarka w rozdzielczości 3840 x 2160 px. Głośność Tak jak wspominałem każda z grafik ma tryb półpasywny więc w spoczynku jest idealna cisza. Pod obciążeniem zdecydowanie wyróżniają się dwa modele – MSI i KFA2. MSI jest tak cicha, że nie przebija się przez tło. KFA2 jest lekko ponad to, ale na pewno obu modeli nie usłyszycie podczas działania. Modele od Gigabyte i ZOTAC są już głośniejsze, choć przy np. AiO na procesorze ich działanie również nie powinno zbytnio Wam przeszkadzać. Nie ma tutaj jednak mowy o bardzo cichym działaniu. Najgorzej ponownie wypada Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Dual OC, który jest głośniejszy od konkurencji. Pobór mocy Pobór mocy w przypadku wszystkich modeli jest bardzo podobny. Nie jest on bardzo duży, choć mógłby on być jeszcze mniejszy w stosunku do najsłabszych modeli RTX 3060 Ti. Uważam jednak, że do każdej z testowanych kart spokojnie dobrej jakości 550 W zasilacz powinien wystarczyć. Podkręcanie Podkręcanie wykonałem poprzez program MSI Afterburner. W tabelce poniżej znajdziecie wartości o jakie udało mi się podwyższyć taktowanie rdzenia oraz pamięci. Za stabilne działanie karty uznawałem nie tylko brak wyrzucania z gier do pulpitu, ale także brak artefaktów podczas działania gier. Poniżej znajdziecie też średnie wyniki po OC z dwóch gier w trzech rozdzielczościach oraz temperatury, głośność czy pobór mocy. Średnia wydajność testowanych modeli GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Wszystkie testowane modele wypadają pomiędzy podkręconymi wersjami RTX 2060 SUPER, a RTX 2070 SUPER. Bliżej jest jej jednak do tego pierwszego modelu. Nie jest to więc zaskakująca wydajność i wiele osób liczyło na znacznie lepszą, ale wyniki obiektywnie patrząc też nie są złe. Jest jednak jeszcze miejsce na kolejny model plasujący się pomiędzy RTX 3060 a RTX 3060 Ti, więc mimo wszystko karty mogły by oferować trochę lepszą wydajność. Pomiędzy testowanymi modelami występują różnice w wydajności, ale nie są one wybitnie wielkie. Mieszczą się w zakresie 3 punktów procentowych, czyli nawet najsłabszy model zapewnia stosunkowo dobrą wydajność. Najlepiej w testach wypada ZOTAC GeForce RTX 3060 AMP White Edition, a zaraz za nim plasuje się Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming OC 12G. W środku stawki mamy MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio, ale tutaj różnice do poprzedniego modelu wcale nie są tak duże. Na czwartym miejscu jest KFA2 GeForce RTX 3060 EX (1-Click OC), a najsłabiej wypada Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Dual OC. Tutaj różnice w stosunku do modelu MSI są już większe, choć tak jak pisałem – w obrębie jednej serii wcale nie są one jakoś wybitnie duże. Test RTX 3060 – podsumowanie Tutaj wypadało by wspomnieć o cenach kart, co zazwyczaj ma spory wpływ na ich ocenę. Jednakże sytuacja na rynku jest taka, że ceny są ogromne i to niezależnie od modelu plus ich dostępność jest naprawdę różna. Aktualnie w jednym z bardziej znanych sklepów nie kupicie GeForce RTX 3060 poniżej 4000 zł co jest znaczną przesadą niezależnie od modelu. Przypomnę tylko, że cena sugerowana przez Nvidię to 1599 zł. Jeśli więc znajdziecie jakikolwiek z testowanych modeli w niższej cenie to i tak warto go kupować – szkoda tutaj pieniędzy na coś, co i tak ma chorą cenę. Uważam też, że każda z testowanych kart ma coś wyjątkowego i przy niektórych zastosowaniach będzie ona warta polecenia. Nie zdziwcie się więc, że przy wszystkich kartach znajdziecie moją rekomendację. Asus GeForce RTX 3060 Dual OC to najsłabszy, najgłośniejszy i najcieplejszy model w zestawieniu. Różnice w stosunku do konkurencji nie są może wybitnie wielkie, ale na pewno są zauważalne. Karta mimo wszystko dobrze się podkręca i po OC sama wydajność znacznie wzrasta, choć wpływa to negatywnie np. na kulturę pracy. Jest to jednak najkrótsza karta w zestawieniu. Ma on też małe pozostałe wymiary przez co świetnie sprawdzi się w mini PC. To w takich zastosowaniach najchętniej widziałbym ten model i jeśli planujecie złożenie małego komputera to warto rozważyć jego zakup. Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming OC 12G to karta, która nie wyróżnia się wyglądem, plasuje się w środku stawki pod względem temperatur (choć są one i tak niskie) i głośności. Samo OC rdzenia również nie jest wybitnie wielkie, choć testy wykazały, że i tak grafika jest po nim jest w czołówce. Karta jest też mocno fabrycznie podkręcona, co pozwala jej bez ręcznego OC na plasowanie się pod względem wydajności zaraz za modelem ZOTACa (ma to też wpływ na sam potencjał ręcznego OC). Jest to też jedyny model, który oferuje dwa złącza HDMI i dwa DisplayPort. Tutaj uważam, że model Gigabyte jest po prostu porządną konstrukcją, która powinna zadowolić każdą osobę, której głównie zależy na wydajności. KFA2 GeForce RTX 3060 EX (1-Click OC) to kolejny ciekawy model. Tym razem wyróżnia się on sporym podświetleniem RGB, choć boczny napis akurat mi zbytnio nie przypada do gustu. Uważam jednak, że całość może się podobać i całość może nieźle wyglądać w obudowie z oknem, stąd przyznałem jej jedno z odznaczeń. Karta w testach wypadła tylko trochę lepiej od modelu Asusa pod względem wydajności, natomiast ma ona spory potencjał OC, który warto wykorzystać. Możecie też zainstalować oprogramowanie i jednym kliknięciem podbić taktowanie o 15 MHz. Grafika notuje temperatury w normie, choć nie są one najmniejsze. Jej ogromnym plusem jest za to ciche działanie – na pewno nie usłyszycie jej podczas rozgrywki. Jeśli więc szukacie grafiki z bogatym podświetleniem, dobrymi możliwościami OC i gwarantującej ciche działanie to model od KFA2 powinien spełnić Wasze wymagania. MSI GeForce RTX 3060 Gaming X Trio to zdecydowanie mój ulubiony model spośród testowanych. Karta jest fabrycznie podkręcona, ale w zestawieniu zazwyczaj ląduje w środku kart GeForce RTX 3060. Jej ogromnym plusem jest za to znakomity wygląd i świetne wykonanie. Ogromny radiator (tutaj zwróćcie uwagę na długość – nie do każdej obudowy ona wejdzie) i trzy wentylatory sprawiają, że pod obciążeniem karta pozostanie niesłyszalna oraz jest jedną z najchłodniejszych w całym zestawieniu. Wyprzedza ją jedynie model RX 6800 XT z wbudowanym chłodzeniem cieczą. Grafika ma też spory potencjał OC rdzenia i pamięci, który warto wykorzystać. Jeśli więc zależy Wam na najlepszym modelu RTX 3060 to moim zdaniem jest to właśnie konstrukcja od MSI. Na koniec pozostała karta ZOTAC GeForce RTX 3060 AMP White Edition. Jest to jedyny biały model w naszym porównaniu i uważam, że bardzo dobrze będzie on wyglądał z odpowiednio kolorystycznie dobranym sprzętem. Karta jest też dosyć krótka, choć jest nadal dłuższa i szersza od modelu Asusa. Osobiście denerwuje mnie w niej montaż złączy PCI-E, ale jeśli często nie wyjmujecie grafik to można na to przymknąć oko. ZOTAC GeForce RTX 3060 AMP White Edition to najmocniej podkręcona wersja w naszych testach, co przekłada się na świetną wydajność. Pod względem temperatur jest bardzo dobrze, choć grafika mogła by być trochę cichsza pod obciążeniem. Samo ręczne OC rdzenia jest najmniejsze w zestawieniu, ale ma to na oczywiście wpływ fabryczne OC. Karta ZOTACa jest więc dobrym wyborem dla osób nie będących samemu podkręcać karty, a chcącym mieć świetną wydajność, większą od konkurencji. Dodatkowo grafiką mogą zainteresować się osoby, które szukają białego modelu.

10 Aug 2021 - Graphics card reviewedThis computer hardware provides top end graphics. The GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB will easily meet recommended system requirements of games released today. This is a strong benchmarker on modern games and can often return excellent frame rates at high and ultra 1080p. But the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB can also run 1440p pc system requirements. GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB is capable of DirectX 12 gaming requirements. Here we take a closer look at the various performances across 1080p, 1440p and 4K screen resolutions for the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB. In particular this is looking at the Ultra graphics settings to see what sort of FPS this graphics card can get across some of the more popular games played in 2022. Of the 1000 most demanding recommended specs found in game requirements today, this gpu is more powerful than the graphics requirement of 976 games in todays 1080p FPS on Ultra for the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB shows us that Dying Light 2 is getting a reasonable result of 56 FPS, and then we are seeing Star Citizen predicted to return a strong 88 FPS while another game on our list is the Far Cry 6 which is getting 55 frames per second at Ultra are turning their increasingly more powerful graphics cards to the popular 1440p screen size so we tested the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB to see how it performs on 1440p. First off we have researched Star Citizen and predict it will be good. The frame rates predicted for the game presets were - Low: 177 FPS, Medium: 140 FPS, High: 94 FPS and Ultra: 67 FPS. We added Far Cry 6 to our tests and saw it was playable with a 42 FPS at Ultra 1440p. And then tested Dying Light 2 which got 42 FPS at Ultra 1440p. Looking at a few of these 1440p results for the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB we get the impression that it is a good choice for running modern games at Ultra in this larger screen many years will the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB in your PC? 2-3 years of top end gaming before an upgrade Whats a good PC graphics upgrade for the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB? There are no graphics cards on the current market that would provide a big enough increase in performance to warrant upgrading the GeForce RTX 2060 Super 8GB.
