GeForce RTX 2060 vs GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark, the GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU is faster than the GeForce RTX 2060 in gaming.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 2060 has a slightly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the GeForce RTX 2060 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 80 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 2060 at 160 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop is faster than the GeForce RTX 2060.
