NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 12GB
The GeForce RTX 2060 12GB is a December 2021 refresh of the Turing RTX 2060 with 2176 CUDA cores and 12 GB of GDDR6 on a 192-bit bus. It keeps hardware ray tracing and DLSS support and is rated at up to 185 W.
Pros
- 12 GB of GDDR6, double the original RTX 2060
- Hardware ray tracing and Tensor cores for DLSS
- 2176 CUDA cores, more than the original 6 GB card
- Moderate 185 W power rating
Cons
- Turing ray tracing performance is limited in recent titles
- 192-bit bus gives the same 336 GB/s bandwidth as the 6 GB card
- Turing-era design with no DLSS 3 frame generation or newer AV1 support
Awaiting benchmarks
No Inno Score yet: rasterization still needs a published benchmark result.
