Radeon RX 5700 XT vs GeForce RTX 2060: In-Depth Breakdown
Performance: Radeon RX 5700 XT vs GeForce RTX 2060
The Radeon RX 5700 XT is significantly faster, around 33% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2060. Both cards sit in the same broad class, well suited to 1080p.
Price & Value
Right now the GeForce RTX 2060 starts at $284 GBP against $763 GBP for the Radeon RX 5700 XT. Despite being slower, the GeForce RTX 2060 offers the better performance-per-dollar (~102% better value), so budget-focused buyers should weigh it carefully. The GeForce RTX 2060 is trading below its $349 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal. The Radeon RX 5700 XT still sits about $364 GBP above its $399 GBP MSRP.
Power & Efficiency
The GeForce RTX 2060 draws just 160W versus 225W for the Radeon RX 5700 XT, and it also delivers more performance per watt — so it runs cooler and quieter and needs less PSU headroom.
VRAM & Future-Proofing
With 8GB against 6GB, the Radeon RX 5700 XT has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2060's 6GB can fall short.
Features & Ecosystem
Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 2060 brings NVIDIA DLSS upscaling/frame generation and stronger ray tracing, while the Radeon RX 5700 XT 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 or Radeon RX 5700 XT?
Choose the Radeon RX 5700 XT 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.
