GeForce RTX 2070 vs Radeon RX 560: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2070 vs Radeon RX 560
The GeForce RTX 2070 is dramatically faster, around 650% ahead of the Radeon RX 560. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 2070 is comfortable at 1080p, while the Radeon RX 560 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
The Radeon RX 560 currently lists from $110 CAD, $150 CAD less than the GeForce RTX 2070 at $260 CAD. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the GeForce RTX 2070 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 216%. The GeForce RTX 2070 is trading below its $499 CAD MSRP — a genuine deal.
Power & Efficiency
On power, the Radeon RX 560 is the gentler choice at 60W versus 175W. The GeForce RTX 2070 is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 175W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce RTX 2070 carries 8GB versus 2GB on the Radeon RX 560. The extra 6GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 2070 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 560 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 2070 or Radeon RX 560?
The GeForce RTX 2070 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the Radeon RX 560 if you find it at a steep discount.
