GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q vs GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER has a significantly higher core clock speed. The core clock speed (or base speed) is the frequency at which the GPU core runs. This metric makes sense when comparing GPUs of a similar architecture or generation. In addition, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER also has a significantly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q has a significantly lower TDP at 65 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER at 220 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER is better than the GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q.
