GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q vs RTX A2000 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q beats the RTX A2000 in gaming performance.

The GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q has a slightly 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. Despite this, the RTX A2000 has a slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the RTX A2000 has a slightly lower TDP at 70 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q at 80 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Max-Q over the RTX A2000.
