Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER
The Radeon RX 6800 is dramatically faster, around 107% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 6800 is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is better matched to 1080p.
Price & Value
Pricing has the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER at $358 EUR, $942 EUR under the Radeon RX 6800's $1,300 EUR. Despite being slower, the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER offers the better performance-per-dollar (~76% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is trading below its $399 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal. The Radeon RX 6800 still sits about $721 EUR above its $579 EUR MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
At 175W vs 250W, the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is the gentler load on your system. The Radeon RX 6800's extra power draw buys more performance per watt, not just more heat — worth it if your PSU has the headroom. Its more modern RDNA 2 architecture on a TSMC N7 process is part of why it does more with each watt.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
The Radeon RX 6800 carries 16GB versus 8GB on the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. The extra 8GB 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 2060 SUPER brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 6800 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 SUPER or Radeon RX 6800?
Choose the Radeon RX 6800 if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
