GeForce RTX 2070 vs GeForce RTX 4060 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 4060 beats the GeForce RTX 2070 in gaming performance.

The GeForce RTX 4060 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 4060 also has a slightly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 2070 has a slightly lower TDP at 175 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 4060 at 200 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the GeForce RTX 4060 is faster than the GeForce RTX 2070.
