GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER vs Radeon Vega 6 comparison

In our benchmarks, the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER beats the Radeon Vega 6 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 slightly higher boost clock speed: the maximum frequency the chip can reach if power delivery and thermals allow.

In addition, the Radeon Vega 6 has a significantly lower TDP at 45 W when compared to the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER at 250 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

In conclusion, all specs and GPU benchmarks considered, will recommend the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER over the Radeon Vega 6.
