Nvidia’s RTX 2060 Super GPU is a refreshed version of their RTX 2060 launched just 10 months prior. With this iteration, NVIDIA are hoping to contest AMD’s recent RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT with a better value proposition than compared to the 2060. The RTX 2060 Super uses the same GPU die as in the 2060, but has extra CUDA cores (increasing from 1920 to 2176) and 8 GB of GDDR6 memory (up from 6 GB), capable of delivering 448 GB/s of memory bandwidth. It has a has a TDP of 175 W, compared to 160 W in the 2060. The RTX 2060S also features Turing NVENC which is far more efficient than CPU encoding and alleviates the need for casual streamers to use a dedicated stream PC. The 15-20% increase in effective speed from the 2060 to 2060 Super costs around $50 on reference price tags. For now Nvidia will retain the "not-Super" RTX 2060 as the most affordable GPU in the ray-tracing 2000 series at $350 USD. [Jul '19 GPUPro]
