Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon RX 5700 vs GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop

The Radeon RX 5700 is significantly faster, around 25% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 5700 is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop is better matched to entry-level 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop starts at $39 CAD against $1,159 CAD for the Radeon RX 5700. The Radeon RX 5700 still sits about $810 CAD above its $349 CAD MSRP.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop draws just 80W versus 180W for the Radeon RX 5700, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 8GB against 6GB, the Radeon RX 5700 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop's 6GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 offers AMD FSR upscaling and strong rasterization value. If you lean on upscaling or ray tracing, that ecosystem difference can matter as much as the frame-rate gap.

Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop or Radeon RX 5700?

The Radeon RX 5700 is the faster card by about 25%. With live pricing limited for this pair, base your decision on the spec differences above — particularly VRAM and power draw — and check current stock before buying.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon RX 5700 better than the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop?

The Radeon RX 5700 is significantly faster, roughly 25% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop or the Radeon RX 5700?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1080p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the Radeon RX 5700 worth the extra $1,120 CAD over the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop?

Only if you need the extra performance or features; on pure value the GeForce RTX 2060 Laptop comes out ahead.

Does the Radeon RX 5700 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 8GB (vs 6GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
