GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER vs GeForce RTX 3060 12GB: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER vs GeForce RTX 3060 12GB
The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and GeForce RTX 3060 12GB post nearly the same score in our performance index, so neither holds a meaningful raw-speed advantage. Both are best suited to 1080p gaming.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The GeForce RTX 3060 12GB carries 12GB versus 8GB on the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. The extra 4GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER's memory is also faster — 448 GB/s versus 240 GB/s (256-bit vs 128-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 3060 12GB is roughly 2 years newer than the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER (Ampere vs Turing), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
