GeForce RTX 2060

2019

Why buy it

✅+663.7% higher PassMark G3D performance.
✅Delivers 118.8% more G3D Mark for each dollar spent, at 40.4 vs 18.5 G3D/$ ($349 MSRP vs $100 MSRP).
✅Access to DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020).
✅100+% more VRAM for high-resolution textures and newer games (6 GB vs Unknown).
✅More future proof: Turing (2018−2022) on 12nm with a newer platform for upcoming games.

Trade-offs

❌966.7% higher power demand at 160W vs 15W.

Intel UHD Graphics P630

2018

Why buy it

✅Costs $249 less on MSRP ($100 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).
✅Draws 15W instead of 160W, a 145W reduction.

Trade-offs

❌Lower PassMark G3D performance (1,848 vs 14,114).
❌Less VRAM, with Unknown vs 6 GB for high-resolution textures and newer games.
❌No DLSS support; it relies on Upscaling support instead.
❌Very weak future-proofing: 2018-era hardware with Unknown of VRAM is already obsolete for modern gaming and is hard to recommend today.
❌Lower G3D Mark per dollar, at 18.5 vs 40.4 G3D/$ ($100 MSRP vs $349 MSRP).

Quick Answers

So, is GeForce RTX 2060 better than Intel UHD Graphics P630?

Yes. GeForce RTX 2060 is clearly the better overall GPU here. You are also looking at 14,114 vs 1,848 in G3D Mark. On top of that, GeForce RTX 2060 is a 2019 card with DLSS Super Resolution, while Intel UHD Graphics P630 is a 2018 model from an older generation with no meaningful modern upscaling stack. So this is not really a tight same-tier comparison. It is more a modern card against an older, weaker alternative.

Which one is more future-proof for 2026 and beyond?

GeForce RTX 2060 is the more future-proof choice for 2026 and beyond. You are getting a newer 2019 generation instead of 2018, 663.7% more raw performance headroom, more VRAM at 6 GB instead of Unknown, and better upscaling support with DLSS 2 Super Resolution (2020) instead of no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That leaves it with more room for heavier textures, tougher ray tracing loads, and higher-end 1440p or 4K gaming over the next few years.

Which one is the smarter buy today, not just the cheaper card?

GeForce RTX 2060 is the smarter buy by a wide margin. GeForce RTX 2060 is about 249.0% more expensive on MSRP at $349 MSRP versus $100 MSRP, and you are getting 663.7% higher G3D Mark. Intel UHD Graphics P630 really only makes sense now as a very cheap stopgap or a used-market placeholder.

Is Intel UHD Graphics P630 still worth buying for gaming in 2026?

No, not for a fresh gaming build. Intel UHD Graphics P630 is 2018 hardware with Unknown of VRAM, 1,848 in G3D Mark, and no meaningful modern upscaling stack. That is simply too far behind to be an easy modern recommendation.
