RTX 2060S and RTX 2070S to rain on AMD's Navi parade

With AMD's impending launch of new Navi-based Radeon RX 5700 series, Nvidia has refreshed its RTX series lineup, starting with two models, the RTX 2060 Super and the RTX 2070 Super.

While these might carry the Super suffix, there is a significant difference between the new Super series graphics cards compared to the existing non-Super counterparts on the market, as these are not just overclocked versions.

In addition to the RTX 2060 Super and the RTX 2070 Super, which are expected on retail/e-tail shelves on July 9th, Nvidia is also launching the RTX 2080 Super, which will launch on July 9th and be available at a later date. The Geforce RTX 2080 Ti won't be getting a Super version, at least not yet, and it remains Nvidia's premium high-end offer.
The RTX 2060 Super is a whole different beast

While the original RTX 2060 Super was targeting 1440p gaming (at least according to Nvidia) and could cope with plenty of games with just 6GB of memory, it was heavily lagging behind the RTX 2070, especially with RTX effects enabled.

On the other hand, The new Geforce RTX 2060 Super is now based on TU106 GPU, the same powering the original RTX 2070, and comes with a total of 2176 CUDA cores, 34 RT cores, 272 Tensor cores, 136 TMUs, and 64 ROPs. The biggest change is the memory part, as this time around, it has a full 256-bit memory bus and 8GB of GDDR6 clocked at 14Gbps, leaving it with 448GB/s of memory bandwidth.

The GPU is clocked at 1470MHz base clock and boosts up to 1650MHz.

Performance-wise, this puts it just below the original RTX 2070, which is quite impressive, especially considering it is priced at $429, but we will get to that a bit later. In general, you are looking at around 10 percent improvement across all resolutions and games, and it makes it faster than GTX 1080. This puts Nvidia in a better position and can be considered as a preemptive strike from Nvidia against the upcoming Navi-based Radeon RX 5700.
