GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) vs Quadro P5200: Pros, Cons & Final Verdict

See where each GPU makes more sense in practice: raw FPS, VRAM, features, power draw, pricing, and long-term headroom.

GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile)

2023

Why buy it

  • 29.0% more average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
  • 50% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (6 GB vs 4 GB).
  • Better long-term bet: Ada Lovelace (2022−2024) on 5nm gives it a newer hardware base for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

  • Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 0 vs 23.3 G3D/$ (Unknown MSRP vs $500 MSRP).
  • 15% higher power demand at 115W vs 100W.

Quadro P5200

2018

Why buy it

  • Delivers 100+% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 23.3 vs 0 G3D/$ ($500 MSRP vs Unknown MSRP).
  • Draws 100W instead of 115W, a 15W reduction.

Trade-offs

  • Lower average FPS than GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data.
  • Less VRAM, with 4 GB vs 6 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
  • No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
  • Older hardware, 4 GB of VRAM, and weaker feature support mean it will age faster in newer AAA releases.

Quick Answers

Which GPU is faster for gaming right now?
GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is the faster gaming card right now. In our data, it leads by 29.0% in average FPS across 50 tracked games in our benchmark data. PassMark G3D leans toward Quadro P5200 instead at 11,650 vs 11,353, so for this question the real-game FPS result matters more than the synthetic split.
Which GPU is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond?
GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) is the safer long-term pick for 2026 and beyond. The case is simple: 6 GB vs 4 GB of VRAM, the newer upscaling stack, DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack, a 5nm process instead of 16nm, and 24 vs 0 ray-tracing units. That gives it more room for heavier textures and higher settings over time.
Which GPU is the better buy today?
Quadro P5200 makes the most sense today based on the pricing and value data we have for this matchup. If you are mainly targeting 1080p and some 1440p, Quadro P5200 is the easier value choice. If you care more about 1080p and some 1440p headroom, GeForce RTX 2060 (Mobile) has the stronger long-term case.
