Gainward Geforce Rtx 3060 Pegasus Vs Gigabyte Geforce Rtx 2060 Mini Itx 6g
On Ultra High, the RTX 2060 averaged an impressive 47fps at 1440p when I ran put it through its internal benchmarking tool, and an even silkier 59fps on Very High. Indeed, only the GTX 1070Ti proved an adequate match for the RX 2060 at this resolution, managing an average of 46fps on Ultra High and 54fps on Very High. But wait a minute, I hear you cry, doesn’t the GTX 1070 have 8GB of memory?
This review covers the reference card, also referred to as founder edition. This 160 Watts rated graphics card has 1920 activated shader processors . It has a proper 1680 MHz boost clock for the standard founder version and there will be no differentiation for the reference values compared to the AIB partners. The card has 6 GB of the now familiar GDDR6 memory running a 192-bit wide bus (336 GB/s), the price is 349 USD. The GeForce does have dedicated RT cores, though—30 of them, compared to 36 in the RTX 2070, 46 in the RTX 2080, and 72 in the $1,200 GeForce RTX 2080 Ti. A future BFV update will add in Nvidia’s performance-enhancing Deep Learning Super Sampling technology, too, and Nvidia claims that will boost ray tracing performance even more, as shown in the chart below.
£329 / £349 compared to $430 / $480 is an appreciable saving in my book, which is why it’s my recommended card for 1440p gaming, period. The rest, DLSS and ray-tracing games alike, are all still MIA and really need to hurry the hell up. Where the RTX 2060 really comes into its own is gaming at 2560×1440. Here, the RTX 2060 trounces its cheaper competition and roundly smashes its more expensive rivals, producing near flawless 60fps frame rates on maximum or so-very-near-Ultra-it-might-as-well-be settings pretty much across the board. At $499, the RTX 2070 Super is a better bet for enthusiasts.
The card comes fitted with just one rear positioned power headers (8-pin). The card offers one HDMI ports and two DisplayPort outputs, a DVI connector and the new Virtual link connector. This Turing 106 GPU empowered product keeps that GPU at roughly 65 Degrees C marker depending on game load. Though the GDDR6 memory has been not been tweaked, the ICs are stock 14 GHz (effective clock-rate) but can be bumped upward towards 15 to 16 GHz with the flick of your fingers as we’ll show you in the tweaking chapters. Say hello to the GeForce gtx 1090, after which we’ll dive into the nitty gritty over the next pages.
People had been very interested and were warmed up for the DLSS features and the ability to play Battlefield V in that hybrid Raytraced way. NVIDIA initiated massive internet virals to gain media coverage. But then the bubble exploded in their face as end-users looked the other way when they learned about the incredibly steep price level.
The second issue is price vs. performance, with the cheapest RTX 2070 fetching £450 but barely any faster than the GTX 1080 from the Pascal generation. The most compelling thing about the gigabyte gtx 1060 3gb, though, isn’t all the Turing stuff that makes it special. It’s the price, which is something the RTX 2080, RTX 2080Ti and even the RTX 2070 didn’t really have on their side when they launched at the end of last year. The tide has turned a bit now, but when those first came out, they were all either more expensive than their nearest GTX counterpart, or only a teensy bit more powerful. The RTX 2060, on the other hand, sits firmly on the right side of the power/price line for me, offering as much, if not more juice than the GTX 1070Ti for a fraction of its cost.
