RTX 2060 Specifications

The RTX 2060 is based on the Turing architecture and manufactured using the 12 nm process node. It was launched approximately 6 years, 3 months ago, originally priced at $349. It features 1920 cores, including 30 compute units (SMs), 120 texture mapping units (TMUs), and 48 render output units (ROPs). For ray tracing and AI-accelerated tasks, it also includes 30 dedicated RT cores and 240 Tensor cores, enabling advanced rendering and upscaling features where supported. It has a base clock of 1365 MHz and a boost clock reaching up to 1680 MHz. The RTX 2060 comes equipped with 6 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 192-bit bus. Memory runs at 1750 MHz and delivers a total memory bandwidth of 336 GB/s.

This GPU has a low thermal design power (TDP) of 160 W. It is generally compatible with almost all PC cases and is excellent for SFF and compact systems where heat dissipation is a concern.
