GeForce RTX 2060 Roundup

The GeForce RTX 2060 brings the power of the RTX platform to the masses. Based on the next-gen NVIDIA Turing architecture, it is the most affordable GPU to deliver real-time ray tracing, AI-enhanced graphics, and Deep Learning Super-Sampling (DLSS). What’s more, the RTX 2060 is on average 60% faster than the prior-generation GTX 1060.

Featuring 1,920 CUDA Cores, 240 Tensor Cores, and 30 RT Cores, the RTX 2060 is capable of delivering 52 teraflops of deep learning power and casting 5 gigarays per second. With its 6GB of the newest GDDR6 memory running at 14 Gbps and a GPU boost clock of 1.68 GHz, the RTX 2060 will give you max-setting 60+ FPS gaming at 1920 x 1080. You’ll be able to achieve excellent high-setting performance at 1440p, and if you want to push that even further, you’ll be able to manually overclock your card with NVIDIA’s one-click OC Scanner technology in our custom partner tools.

You’ll find the same supporting technologies found in all of our other graphics cards, such as GeForce Experience, which offers automatic driver updates, ShadowPlay gameplay recording, and one-click Optimal Playable Settings for your favorite games. NVIDIA Ansel allows you to capture professional-grade in-game photos, while Freestyle lets you tweak the look of your games by adding post-process filters like HDR.

Starting at a price of $349, there are many custom GeForce RTX 2060 cards for you to choose from.
