Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER: In-Depth Breakdown

Performance: Radeon RX 6800 vs GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER

The Radeon RX 6800 is dramatically faster, around 72% ahead of the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER. That gap is enough to move it up a tier: the Radeon RX 6800 is comfortable at 1440p, while the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is better matched to 1080p.

Price & Value

Right now the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER starts at $251 GBP against $382 GBP for the Radeon RX 6800. Because it's both faster and competitively priced, the Radeon RX 6800 wins on performance-per-dollar by about 13%. The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER is trading below its $499 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal. The Radeon RX 6800 is trading below its $579 GBP MSRP — a genuine deal.

Power & Efficiency

The GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER pulls less power (215W vs 250W), so it's the easier card to cool and the lighter load on your PSU. The faster Radeon RX 6800 draws more overall but extracts more performance from each watt — plan for a sturdier power supply if you pick it. Its more modern RDNA 2 architecture on a TSMC N7 process is part of why it does more with each watt.

VRAM & Future-Proofing

With 16GB against 8GB, the Radeon RX 6800 has more headroom for 4K textures and memory-hungry creative/AI tasks where the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER's 8GB can fall short.

Features & Ecosystem

Beyond raw numbers, the GeForce RTX 2070 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 2070 SUPER or Radeon RX 6800?

The Radeon RX 6800 is the all-round winner here — it's faster and the better value, so buy it if it fits your budget. Only consider the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER if you find it at a steep discount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Radeon RX 6800 better than the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER?

The Radeon RX 6800 is dramatically faster, roughly 72% ahead. If your budget allows, it's the stronger pick.

Which is better for 4K gaming, the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER or the Radeon RX 6800?

Neither is a dedicated 4K card; both are best at 1440p. For 4K you'd want a faster GPU, or lean on upscaling.

Is the Radeon RX 6800 worth the extra $131 GBP over the GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER?

Often yes — despite the higher price the Radeon RX 6800 delivers better performance-per-dollar here.

Does the Radeon RX 6800 have enough VRAM advantage to matter?

Its 16GB (vs 8GB) gives real headroom for 4K, heavy texture mods, and creative/AI work. At 1080p the gap matters less.
