In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB are very slightly better than the AMD Radeon RX 5700 8GB.
The RTX 2060 has a 5 MHz higher core clock speed than the RX 5700, but the RX 5700 has 8 more Texture Mapping Units than the RTX 2060. As a result, the RX 5700 exhibits a 11.1 GTexel/s better Texture Fill Rate than the RTX 2060. This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.
The RTX 2060 has a 5 MHz higher core clock speed than the RX 5700 and the same number of Render Output Units. This results in the RTX 2060 providing 0.3 GPixel/s better pixeling performance. However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.
The RTX 2060 was released less than a year after the RX 5700, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games.
Both GPUs exhibit very powerful performance, so it probably isn't worth upgrading from one to the other, as both are capable of running even the most demanding games at the highest settings.
The GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB and the Radeon RX 5700 8GB have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The memory bandwidth of the GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB and the Radeon RX 5700 8GB are the same, which means the RTX 2060 and the RX 5700 have equal limitations when it comes to graphical data transfer.
The GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB has 2176 Shader Processing Units and the Radeon RX 5700 8GB has 2304. However, the actual shader performance of the RTX 2060 is 3949 and the actual shader performance of the RX 5700 is 2583. The RTX 2060 having 1366 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the RTX 2060 delivers a marginally smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the RX 5700.
The RX 5700 transistor size technology is 5 nm (nanometers) smaller than the RTX 2060. This means that the RX 5700 is expected to run very slightly cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the RTX 2060.
The GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB requires 175 Watts to run and the Radeon RX 5700 8GB requires 180 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 550 Watts for the RTX 2060 and a PSU with at least 500 Watts for the RX 5700. The RX 5700 requires 5 Watts more than the RTX 2060 to run. The difference is not significant enough for the RX 5700 to have a noticeably larger impact on your yearly electricity bills than the RTX 2060.

Mini Review | Overview The GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB is a mid to high-range GeForce 20 Series graphics card and considered a great price to performance graphics card based on the Turing architecture. This is the 'Super' variant of the RTX 2060 and utilises a cut-down version of the RTX 2070 GPU. Architecture The Turing architecture represents a process shrink down to 12nm compared to 14nm Pascal. The Turing architecture provides the world's first consumer support for real-time ray-tracing technology, or RTX. The GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB supports real-time ray-tracing and excels at 1080p and 1440p screen resolutions. GPU It equips a Turing GPU codenamed TU106-410-A which has 2176 Shader Processing Units, 136 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The central unit runs at 1470 MHz and goes up to 1815 MHz in Boost mode. Memory The GPU accesses an 8GB frame buffer of first-gen GDDR6 memory through a 256-bit memory interface, while the Memory clock operates at 1750MHz, or 14GHz effective. This provides total memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 160W, it requires at least a 550W PSU with an 8-pin power connector. System Suggestions The GeForce RTX 2060 Super Gigabyte Gaming OC 3X White 8GB is best suited for resolutions up to and including 2560x1440. We recommend a mid-range Processor and at least 16GB of RAM for optimal performance. | Overview The AMD Radeon RX 5700 8GB is an Enthusiast gaming Graphics Card based on the first (1.0) Revision of the RDNA Architecture. Architecture The Navi 10 XL GPU offers support for GDDR6 Memory, DirectX 12.0, Vulkan 1.0, and OpenGL 4.5. This variant of the Navi 10 XL GPU features 36 Compute Units activated, offering 2304 Shader Processing Units, 144 TMUs and 64 ROPs. The GPU features a 1465 MHz base clock speed and up to 1725 MHz with boost clock, making it an estimated 15% faster than a GeForce RTX 2060. This puts its predicted performance roughly in line with the Radeon RX Vega 64. GPU The Central Unit is clocked at 1465 MHz, rising to 1725 MHz with boost clock enabled.. Memory: Speed The GPU is equipped with high-speed GDDR6 and accesses the Frame Buffer through a 256-bit memory interface, providing total memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s. Memory: Frame Buffer The GPU can fill up a Memory Pool of up to 8GB. Under most circumstances, this only proves useful in certain 3D Games whose Settings Require Large Amounts of Memory. However,the GPU itself is aimed for 4K Gaming, In some limited scenarios, 8GB might be a bottleneck and Performance could be better were the Frame Buffer larger, however this would only be an issue in the most demanding games. Power Consumption With a rated board TDP of 180W, it requires at least a 500W PSU with one available 8+6-pin connector. Performance AMD Radeon RX 5700 8GB competes with GeForce RTX 2070 8GB, which is available for $499. Specs currently available suggest the AMD Radeon RX 5700 8GB performance should be in the same region as the Radeon RX Vega 64. System Suggestions AMD Radeon RX 5700 8GB GDDR6 is best suited for resolutions up to and including 3840 x2160 (4K). For the most demanding AAA games it should be ideally suited to 1440p. We recommend a Very Strong Processor and at least 16GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. |
