NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060, Gaming Benchmarks & Specs

55 FPS at 1440p across 9 games (anchored estimate) · 1440p at reduced settings, or comfortable 1080p gaming

55 Avg FPS Includes estimates

Nothing here is a measurement of this card. It is an anchored estimate built from the cards we have run ourselves, on the identical suite. Across our 9-game suite at 1440p, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 averages 55 FPS. The ceiling is Counter-Strike 2 at 92 FPS; the floor is Alan Wake 2 at 34 FPS, a 2.7x spread that tells you how engine-dependent this class of card is. In practical terms that means 1440p at reduced settings, or comfortable 1080p gaming. Under load we logged a peak of 154W against the 160W rating.

The silicon

Transistors10,800 million
Die size445 mm²
Fabricated byTSMC
Transistor density24.3 million per mm²

Denser than 21% of the 76 cards we have silicon data for. Density is the clearest measure of what a process node bought: a card that gained it without growing the die got its speed from the fab rather than the architecture.
