HOW TO CHOOSE

Should you choose RTX 2070 Super or RTX 3060?

A useful choice depends on performance, memory, power, price, and the games or workloads you actually use.

01

Start with measured performance

RTX 2070 Super has a median Graphics score of 10,165 versus 8,755 for RTX 3060, a lead of about 16% in this synthetic workload. Treat a result within roughly three percent as effectively close in this synthetic workload.

02

Check memory and power

RTX 2070 Super lists 8 GB GDDR6 and 215 W graphics power; RTX 3060 lists 12 GB GDDR6 / 8 GB GDDR6 and 170 W. Board-partner models can use different coolers, limits, and connectors.

03

Verify the exact game and price

This comparison does not invent FPS or value claims. Check independent testing for your games and resolution, then compare the current prices of the exact cards available to you.
