GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER vs Radeon RX Vega 56: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER vs Radeon RX Vega 56
The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is significantly faster, around 25% ahead of the Radeon RX Vega 56. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is comfortable at 1080p, while the Radeon RX Vega 56 is better matched to entry-level 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the Radeon RX Vega 56 starts at $90,076 JPY against $133,460 JPY for the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER. Despite being slower, the Radeon RX Vega 56 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~19% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The Radeon RX Vega 56 still sits about $89,677 JPY above its $399 JPY MSRP. The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER still sits about $133,061 JPY above its $399 JPY MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER draws just 175W versus 210W for the Radeon RX Vega 56, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom. Its more modern Turing architecture on a TSMC 12nm process is part of why it does more with each watt.
Generation & Longevity
The GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER is roughly 2 years newer than the Radeon RX Vega 56 (Turing vs GCN 5.0 (Vega)), so it generally benefits from a more modern architecture and longer driver-support runway.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX Vega 56 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 Vega 56?
Choose the GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the Radeon RX Vega 56 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.
