GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs GeForce RTX 2060: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs GeForce RTX 2060

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is dramatically faster, around 62% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2060. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is comfortable at 1080p, while the GeForce RTX 2060 is better matched to entry-level 1080p. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER packs 3,072 CUDA cores versus 1,920 on the GeForce RTX 2060. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER also has more RT cores (48 vs 30) and more AI cores (384 vs 240), strengthening its ray-tracing and AI-upscaling performance.

Price & Value

The GeForce RTX 2060 currently lists from $315 EUR, $223 EUR less than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER at $538 EUR. Despite being slower, the GeForce RTX 2060 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~6% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2060 is trading below its $349 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is trading below its $699 EUR MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

On power, the GeForce RTX 2060 is the gentler choice at 160W versus 250W. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is more efficient per watt because it's faster, but its higher 250W draw means more heat and a bigger PSU.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER carries 8GB versus 6GB on the GeForce RTX 2060. The extra 2GB helps at 4K, with high-resolution texture packs, and for content-creation or local-AI workloads that exhaust smaller buffers. The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER's memory is also faster — 496 GB/s versus 336 GB/s (256-bit vs 192-bit bus) — which helps feed the GPU at 4K and with heavy textures.

Which should you buy: GeForce RTX 2060 or GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER?

Choose the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER if you want the most performance and can absorb the higher price. If you're optimizing for value, the GeForce RTX 2060 stretches your money further for only slightly lower performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER better than the GeForce RTX 2060?

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is dramatically faster, roughly 62% ahead. The GeForce RTX 2060 is still worth it if value matters more than top-end frames.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce RTX 2060 or the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER?

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 GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER worth the extra $223 EUR over the GeForce RTX 2060?

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

Does the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 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.

Which is better for ray tracing, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER or the GeForce RTX 2060?

Both handle ray tracing, but the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER has more RT cores, giving it better ray-tracing and AI-upscaling performance than the GeForce RTX 2060.
