NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Super
NVIDIA's July 2019 Super refresh of the RTX 2060, adding a wider 256-bit memory bus, 8GB of GDDR6 and 256 extra CUDA cores while holding the line at $399. Its own benchmark numbers put it level with, or slightly ahead of, the original RTX 2070, at no extra cost over the card it replaces.
Pros
- 8GB of GDDR6 across a 256-bit bus, up from the original RTX 2060's 6GB and 192-bit bus
- 34 RT cores and 272 Tensor cores bring hardware ray tracing and DLSS
- Same $399 launch price as the RTX 2060 it replaced
- 175W TDP needs only a single 8-pin power connector
Cons
- Clock speeds barely move from the outgoing RTX 2060 - boost is actually 30MHz lower (1650MHz vs. 1680MHz); the gains come from more cores and bandwidth, not higher clocks
- No frame-generation support, even with later DLSS models
- Succeeded by the RTX 30 series about 14 months later, in September 2020
