GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Radeon RX 560 XT specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER beats the Radeon RX 560 XT in gaming performance.

In our comparison, the GeForce RTX 2080 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 2080 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 Radeon RX 560 XT has a significantly lower TDP at 150 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER at 250 W. TDP (Thermal Design Power) measures total heat output from the chip.

In terms of raw gaming performance in our GPU benchmark, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER is better than the Radeon RX 560 XT.
